University of Tirana

Staff were fantastic, breakfast was delicious and the location was good as most places of interest were not too far and reachable within a 30 minute walk as well as a bus right at the hotels doorstep. Really nice greenery in the neighbourhood and local small shops which were so unique and interesting. Personally during my stay it was a tad noisy for me, and the room needed slight upgrading with fixtures attended to, other than that Oda hotel is very reasonable for price and location.

Beautiful 5 star experience

The private beach they advertised is a complete lie, they have a “collaboration” with two of the beach clubs. Not that the staff at one of the two knew anything about it and it was useless either way because you still have to pay for the chairs and umbrella. It’s a very kid friendly beach as long as you don’t mind cigarette butts and garbage literally everywhere. The room itself met the most basic of needs and was pretty clean although we did find a piece of toilet paper behind the bathroom door that didn’t move at any point in our 3 nights there. Pool could be cleaner but it wasn’t super gross. The location is right in the middle of a lot restaurants and cheap souvenir stands and two blocks from the beach which was convenient. Staff was friendly and the included breakfast was nice. Overall, I won’t be going back but it was fine enough if you’re on a budget.
