    The hosts were so friendly and kind! We were welcomed with a drink, got a fruit plate in the evening, and our breakfast was excellent, they could accommodate our request for vegetarian food. We could park our car outside for free.

    We arrived in the evening at Artists Guesthouse from Tirana Airport. Tim & Tina immediately make you feel at home. We were welcomed as if we were new members of the family. Breakfast was amazing. Fresh food, generous portions, and above all, incredibly tasty. The drinks (also raki ;) and food you get offered are traditional Albanian. Tim & Tina also gave us tips on what to do in the area and even helped us rent a car for the day. We 100% recommend this place!

    The room was clean with 3 beds. You live on the second floor and have a huge balcony. The family is very helpful and inviting, you become soon a friend, they recommend resturants and local places to go. They speak English and Italian. The breakfast was delicious with homemade pancakes after eggs. vegetables and cheese. Parking outside the house. Thank you, Tim and Rina!

    Tina and Tim were incredibly warm and welcoming! Their friendly dog and cat helped greet us! Parking was easy in the spot in front of their gate. They offered us homemade raki upon arrival, a truly authentic and generous gesture. The room was very comfortable and nice and cool when we arrived. The view from the terrace was gorgeous and I wish we had had more time to sit there and enjoy it! Their dinner recommendation was also on point. The best was the fresh made breakfast in the morning in their front garden! So delicious!!

    We felt very comfortable and at home with Rina, her family and pets. It was the perfect stay for us to rest up before leaving for the Theth to Valbone Hike. Comfy beds and not too far to walk into town. Rina is an excellent chef too! The breakfast was delicious and we got good recommendations for nearby restaurants. Rina was very prompt replying and helping us organising our trip and transfers. Would definitely recommend you come and stay!

    We had the such a great stay at the Artists Guest House. We highly recommend this stay to every person who is visiting Shköder. The hosts Rina and Tim are very helpful, caring and friendly. They won't feel like hosts, rather like family. Their property is breathtaking beautiful and very nicely decorated. There is a nice patio in the front garden where you can relax. Our room had enough space to organise our luggage. The breakfast is very delightful. Rina prepares the Albanian breakfast very well and the taste is beyond words. The location of the property is very convenient. It is very nearby the Shköder main city centre and near main spots like the Mesi Bridge. The hosts can also help you recommend with the best spots to visit in Shköder and surroundings.

    We've travelled the world extensively and can honestly say we have never experienced such a warm, effusive, friendly, loving and genuinely caring hostess than Rina, ably supported by her friendly, fun loving husband Tim. Being an ex-restaurant owner Rina knows how to cook, so her breakfasts were something to look forward to. Their home exudes a unique, charming flavour and it is situated quite close to the Shkoder city centre and its array of fabulous restaurants. Highly recommended.

    E mrekullueshme . Shtepia ndodhet ne rrugen kryesore vetem 5 min larg qendres . Tim dhe Rina jane njerezit me te mire qe kemi njohur ne Shqiperi. Çmimi ishte shume i lire vetem ( 40 euro) per dy persona . Parkingu ishte falas. Ato ofronin edhe biçikletat e tyre per te bere nje xhiro neper qytet falas . Na mbajten valixhet tona falas disa dite pasi shkuam ne Theth edhe ky sherbim ishte falas . Nje mengjes fantastik i bollshem . Me pelqeu “ krepi” ishte 😋😋😋. Tim ,na ndihmoi te rezervonim tek “ Lumi i Shales” Gjeja me e bukur ishte kur ne degjuam te luante me “kitare”nje artist i vertet Ata kane dhe nje restorant super te bukur ne “ Liqenin e Shkodres”. Ishte nje “mrekulli” sidomos kur perendonte dielli qetesia e liqenit te linte pa fjale. Tim dhe Rina ju tani jeni miqt tane . Faleminderit per mikpritjen 🙏

    Everything was perfect. We had a beautiful and unforgettable night. The Albanian hospitality is amazing. Kujtim played the guitar for us. The breakfast, prepared by the lady of the house, was fantastic. We will come back again. Thank you, my friends (Kujtim, Rina).

    Booking in Artists Guest House was one of the best travel decisions me and my wife we ever made. Trust me, just book this Guest House - you will not regret it! The owners, Rina and Kujtim, are the nicest people you will ever meet. I have never felt so welcome at any other Guest House . This is Albanian hospitality at its best. We spent 1 incredible night here, really enjoying the atmosphere, view, food, and company. We ate dinner here because it was so good. The breakfasts were wonderful and we enjoyed sitting and having drinks on the balcony. Thank you so much, Rina and Kujtim, for making our honeymoon so incredible!

    The room was too small for three people, the shower in the bathroom didn’t work properly. Although we kept our windows closed, we could still hear the street noise.

    Rina together with her husband were very welcoming and friendly, they made sure we had everything we need. We could relax on the terrace, breakfast was nice, and beds were comfortable. They also have a very cute and friendly dog and cat.
