Guest reviews for Castle Steps

Redina - 16/05/2026 13:17:11

"This place was stunning, exactly what I was looking for. It was just a short walk to the old bazaar and the castle was like 3 minutes from the house. The hosts were so communicative and helpful even though they were not there in person. The sunrise and sunset were beautiful from the terrace. Super recommended."

"That I could not stay longer 🥲"

They were incredibly kind and helpful, always available when needed, and provided great local tips. The house is beautiful, clean, and full of character. We would definitely stay here again"

"It's a lovely stone house in a narrow cobbled street leading up to the Castle of Gjirokastra. What I loved was that it seems to be an old family house with hotel-level amenities. You can make tea and coffee, the bedroom looks lovely with the stone and wood elements and has got good quality bedding, and a nice view. I particularly appreciated the fact that the host provides sandals for the wetroom (bathroom), this was very useful. Communication was easy. Highly recommended!"

"Even though the host was out of town, he was very helpful through phone. The key was securely stored in the lockbox and we were able to check in as soon as we arrived. The room was beautifully put together, clean and neat. 5 minutes walk to the castle and 10 minutes to the city center. Calm sorrunding and perfect spot."

"Het uitzicht vanaf het dakterras (meest in de schaduw) is geweldig. Verhuurder heeft aan alles gedacht, erg prettig. Goed bed. Tip via steil pad te bereiken vanaf de busparkeerplaats! Er mag gewoon op de weg bij app geparkeerd worden."

"Je moet op het volgende rekenen. Appartement heeft aantal trapjes en te bereiken via redelijk steile wegen en paden. Badkamer heeft geen douchescherm maar wel een goede vloertrekker. Blijft toch een echte aanrader."

Guest reviews

"Lovely welcome from the hosts with offers of coffee and raki! Comfortable room for the night with all that we needed. Had the fish that was on offer in the evening which was yummy. Able to walk down to the boardwalk and monastery. Recommend this place if you are looking for a quiet getaway."

"Great location for beaches, lovely kind hosts. Everything was new, very clean. Comfortable bed and private bathroom for each room. Highly recommended, we’d stay again!"

"I liked the rooms ,were clean and comfortable. Dhe people were very friendly. And also was not to much expensive."

"Everything inside was perfectly clean and beautifully maintained and thought out. Don’t let the exterior of the building fool you, this apartment is a diamond in the rough!"

"Great location close to grocery stores and restaurants. Very walkable. Great communication with the host."

"Εξαιρετικό δωμάτιο με όλες τις παροχές! Τρομερή φιλοξενία που ξεχωρίζει! Αξίζει σίγουρα να μείνεις εκεί από το να μπλέξεις στην πολυκοσμία της πόλης! Απέχει μόνο μισή ώρα από τους αγίους Σαράντα! Προτείνεται σίγουρα! Ευχαριστούμε για όλα!"

"We loved Tini’s home. Very relaxing and comfortable stay, very traditional in a good way and an amazing view. We came after a few days in Sarande and arriving in Vuno and the house was such a great antidote. Amazing view and perfect place to watch the sun setting on the terrace. Vuno itself is stunning with a nice walk down to the centre of the village with a lovely restaurant where we ate one night. Also great location for a number of good beaches not too far away."

"It’s in a beautiful location with a great balcony looking over the mountains. The garden is gorgeous and the hosts are fantastic. They made the stay very special! The couple looked after us and we had a great breakfast which was very fresh, and they treated us to produce right from their garden ☺️"
