“Prisbilligt hotel men der mangler lidt kvalitet.”
From the terrace you could see the beach right across the path, and the hotel was about a 25‑minute walk from the city. The kitchen and cleaning staff were friendly and helpful, the English was good, and free Wi‑Fi was available in the room. There were many restaurants and kiosks nearby, but the best (and cheapest) food we found was in Dürres town. The shower design was not very clever; the base was only about 60 × 60 cm, the shower head was about 20 cm above the floor, and it was also about 20 cm larger than the base, so after a shower water would spill across the entire bathroom floor. Breakfast was mediocre, and when we arrived just after 9 am we had to ask for coffee because the thermos was empty; there were mornings when we had to go into the kitchen to ask for bread and juice. When we checked out the card reader didn’t work, they wanted payment in euros, but we didn’t have many euros, so I had to go to a nearby exchange shop to buy euros because there were no ATMs in the area that accepted euros; we ended up paying a 10 % exchange fee. That’s not the hotel’s fault, but it would have been nice to know beforehand. I don’t understand how this hotel could be rated four stars; compared to other four‑star hotels it doesn’t really live up to that rating, more like 2½–3 stars.
