The hotel is in a great location for local restaurants and exploribg Durres. Unfortunately, this hotel did not mention that a lot of the facilities were closed to it being off season before we arrived. There was no notice that the menu is fixed for half board and the staff did not ask our dietary requirements before serving the food. When we checked in, there was no hotel information given to us at all and all of the times for breakfast/lunch/dinner and checkin/ out differed on expedias website, the hotels website, and at the reception desk which was confusing. It was also said that the hotel was accessible but it is not. There was no ramp when we arrived for a wheelchair, that we needed, and then the staff put out an unsafe plank of wood which was not fit for purpose. We requested an accessible room for wheelchair when booking and had confirmed this prior to arrival with the hotel (as was not guaranteed by requesting alone) - but when we went to our room the grab rail was brokedn off the wall and left on the bathroom floor, there was not enough room in the bathroom for my sister to mive her wheelchair and to safely transfer from her wheelchair to the toilet and no shower chair/ room for her to wheel into the shower. When entering and exiting the hotel, staff did not always reciprocate a hello/ bye so this felt rude and unwelcoming.

There was a front desk person and he was requesting me to pay 10 euro extra for parking when the parking it shows on expedia for free, I have 2 night to stay on that property and I bought some drinks the first night left them on the fridge for the second night and the cleaning people have cleaned all the drinks out of the refrigerator. The last thing I have to say is they were trying to make me charge 25 euro more then the price of expedia advertising. Thank you to expedia they have given me the extra money back. The shower was all mold and smells very bad.

Worst hotel on the entire planet
DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME BOOKING THIS HOTEL. We arrived to be told they had no rooms available and did nothing to find us an alternative. We returned the next day and they said they had a room but not the one we booked. The room was beyond disgusting - dirty, broken curtain poles, fire doors nailed open, dripping water leak from the ceiling in the bathroom, shelves falling off in the wardrobe - simply appalling. The so called half board food is worse than school dinners and there is no customer service whatsoever, the staff are just rude. The next morning we went downstairs to see families sleeping in the bar area as they had also been told there were no rooms and others being told they needed to leave their rooms as they needed to give them to someone else. The additional service charge is also a complete joke -€25 pppn for nothing! The hotel also does not have any of the things it advertises…. No pool, no private beach, no beach cafe. It’s all lies. Needless to say; we left. They refused to refund our additional service charges and laughed in our faces!
Curtain pole fallen off and just left in the room, beds not even made with bedding.
This is supposedly a fire door

Hidden charges and costs. Not worth what you pay.
Upon arrival you are told about service fees you must pay that I was unaware of. €25 per person per night, which included my 2 year old daughter and 17 year old sisterinlaw which on hotels.com were both classed as children. So this came up to €450 extra that I was not anticipating, plus another €33 card payment fee. Staff were so rude and clearly do not know the meaning of customer service. I paid for a room for 3, which was meant to include a double and one twin bed. I was greeting with one double bed and a sofa that wasn’t even a sofabed. One towel to share between us. No aircon most of the stay. Complete false advertisement on beach front, it is not a beachfront hotel. And does not have any sort of views! They do not have a private beach, another lie which I don’t understand how hotels.com is even allowing this hotel to be advertised on their site. They had no pool and told me it was “under construction” there just wasn’t one full stop. Food - I’m Muslim, when I asked about some of the cold cuts or meat that were being severed they told me that they did t serve pork at all then a few days later they actually had pork chops, so completely unreliable and now I’m not convinced I didn’t eat pork. There was a leak at the top of the stairs on the floor I was on so going up or down the stairs was such a health hazard and my daughter nearly dropped down them. Towels were dirty. Cleaners kept taking out our electric key card so we’d come back to a warm/ hot room.

before you book in this hotel, read what happened to me I booked this hotel, all fees included and I paid the hotel, for 3 day after some time I received an email saying that we have received the money, but when you come, you have to pay me another 150 euros to clean the room, after a week I went to the hotel with a reservation and they forced me to pay another 150 euro , I agreed to pay another 150 euros extra, but they still asked me for another 100 euros if something broke. I did not have 100 euros, and they did not allow me to chek in to the hotel, they left me on the street they took all my money and i have to go back home without vecation they were not people but bad animals I called the agency to return my money, but without success. the agency could not get the money back. be careful if you order this hotel because it will cost you a lot and the people who work there are very rude

The property description on Expedia shows an indoor pool which is why we booked the hotel because we had kids who wanted to swim. We called the number listed and asked and were told the pool was open. After checking in, we got the kids ready to swim and were told there is no pool. We were then refused a refund at the hotel and were told to call their main office and were again refused. Maybe it’s better during tourist season, but I would not recommend staying here at all.

Deceptive- be aware
The hotel is fundamentally trying to rinse you for as much money as possible. Everything listed online as free (parking/meals/facilities etc) they try to make you pay for. They also charge a spurious city tax that no other hotels seem to know about. The facilities themselves are fine though maintenance around the hotel is poor- our bathroom smelt awfully damp for instance. Not a 4 star experience

The only good thing is the friendly staff from the restaurant, other than this AC not working properly in the rooms, water dripped from the ceiling into the hallways, a special smell of humidity is inside And very disappointed is that, my deposit is still not refunded after more than 2 months from checkout, and they are still delaying this process

As soon as I arrived at the hotel I had to pay €108 even though online it said that I have paid everything. No body welcomed us when we first arrived. Later on I found out that drinks, even water was not included as part of our meal. I was charged for all the drinks and had to pay for every single drink. Very expensive but, the staff was lovely and working hard in bad hotel conditions.
