Carmen hotel

We drove from Croatia to Albania and booked this hotel in advance. It is located in the white marble road city center. I recommend getting directions to the statue of Mother Theresa, then while facing her, turn left down that road and you’ll see the hotel on the right. They will park and take care of your car for you and they’ll get it ready when you need it, but a lot of the fun stuff is within walking distance. The room was very modern and super clean with a kettle and rain shower. Nice beds, we left the window open and you can hear the prayer calls from the huge mosque across the street. We ate dinner and breakfast. Dinner was fresh meat and fries, breakfast was a buffet of Albanian breakfast foods, I really enjoyed it. I’d definitely stay there again.

Great hotel with excellent service located very locally. Downside is it's very close to the grand mosque which make you wake up midnight.

Very bad service and air conditioning is not working Shower head is fixed with masking tape Elevators are not designed probably You need to carry heavy bags through stairs
