    The hostel is in a good location, close to the town and not a far walk away from the nicer beaches

    I just want to advise I don’t want to write a bad review & this place is nice but I just wanted to advise some things I experienced that I wish I knew. Do not stay in the 10 bed dorm, if I’d stayed in another dorm I feel I would’ve had a significantly better experience. You have to make your own bed, something I’ve never experienced before, but check in is not until 3pm which I don’t understand considering you have to make the bed yourself. The room did not have wifi, and it did not have a bin, the nearest bin was quite a walk away and I found it very strange. The pods had no curtains (no privacy) and the room itself has no curtains so you will be woken up by the sun, I definitely recommend an eye mask. You also have to ask someone to let you into the hostel whenever you come in - you can’t come and go on your own, and if you want to be out past 11pm you need to borrow a key with a deposit. The hostel has no bar or anything and is not very social - there are definitely more social hostels in himare, however if you want some downtime this is for you. I believe if you stay in any other dorm you would have a great time though as it just seemed the 10 bed had these issues and other rooms had an ensuite etc

    staff absolutely lovely & helpful; nice outdoor area

    tents not really a good option when it comes to rain; only one toilet for all people using the tents; sometimes noisy in the area (dogs barking at night & cars)

    The breakfast was simple but good. The volunteers were nice and friendly! The bed was comfortable and i like that it has a bit of privacy, i was just hoping it has the curtain so it's completely private.

    I think the price is a little expensive. The location was okay. It's not near the beach area but just 10 min walk. Just not ideal for female solo travelers if going back alone at night time. The toilets and baths are downstairs. It would have been nice if there is atleast one in the room.

    Himare Hostel was absolutely gorgeous and charming! The mornings were filled with quiet conversation and the evenings were for music and good company. I stayed in the mixed dormitory which had air conditioning and warm water for the showers. It was very clean and had many sweet pets, one of which even walked with me to town!

    I truly have no complaints! Everything was clean and accessible and the staff was so sweet and accommodating!

    I was very satisfied with my stay at the hostel in Himara. The hostel was clean and comfortable, and I stayed in a tent that was fully equipped and cozy. Everything was well-organized and easy to use. The service and atmosphere were excellent – everything was TOP! I highly recommend this hostel to anyone looking for a pleasant and enjoyable stay in Himara.

    Staff were friendly and the breakfast was good

    Tent was not waterproof, all the tents looked pretty rank and then bed inside was not comfortable.

    The staff was nice

    - there was no hot water - we stayed in the suite, and there was no isolation whatsoever (everything from the patio could be heard) - the room had no proper window, and so all the light from outside entered - the "included breakfast" is disgusting, and even the guests in the suite are required to wash their own plates and silverware

    Property response:

    Thank you for your comments, they help us to become better. When I saw the rating you gave us, we were shocked and when we read below that breakfast is discasting for you, we said we don't want to answer at all but we have to answer for our wonderful customers that we always have :) how can someone say that breakfast is discasting, the hot water will take a while to reach the tap because there is a long rain, for washing dishes we have a dishwasher and as for the insulation, you will forgive us but it is not a 5-star hotel but it is a hostel in an old traditional house with stones and windows and wooden doors, thanks Himara Hostel
