Què no li ha agradat: Personal i servei, comoditats i estat de l’allotjament i instal·lacions
Tirana is a fascinating, exciting modern city with plenty to do for the weekend. The hotel was, however, pretty grim. There is nowhere to sit outside except for a couple of tables on the street. These were occupied most of the day by local workmen and friends of the staff who smoked incessantly. I always woke up to the smell of smoke as my room was on the first floor.
We had huge problems with the fact that the staff were chaotic and disorganised, especially with regard to payment.
My friend and I had separate rooms and in both the bathrooms were unpleasant. The plumbing had not been finished on my bidet and water went everywhere. Similarly the shower door didn't fit and the floor flooded. The other bathroom didn't even have a shower door!
The dining room was like a dark cave ( hence our preferring to sit outside whenever possible.)
I ordered a glass of wine on two occasions and was charged very different prices. When the manager was called to finally settle the problem re payment he agreed that we were right but said he couldn't afford to pay decent staff as this would increase the price.
I would encourage friends to visit Albania and might well go back myself but I strongly advise against staying at The Brilant Antik.
