It was a spectacular experience, too much hospitality, the super well-adapted Hotel, they respect a lot and also make you feel at home. I recommend doing it and I would do it again if I was given the opportunity a beautiful and great experience

My experience at the guest house was not as expected. The role requirements for me was to speak English; however, the host (who was the listed hosts mother) and the woman I worked with spoke little to no English. There was hardly any communication about the times for doing work, and trying to communicate about the work that was to be done was nearly impossible. Due to this, I left early. They did provide food, but it was groceries and I had to cook for myself in my apartment. I didn't really get a chance to connect with the host or other locals and I felt rather isolated.

My mother speaks english Alyvia and you communicated normally with her. The times and the work was already explained to you by me and when you arrived by mother also. In your free time you could connect with anyone you wanted. you could also try to communicate with not just leave one day but it’s okay.

My stay at this hostel was very good; for me it felt like a home away from home, Gjelina helped me with everything and was superb; my stay was very warm. The food was also a 10/10, everything organic and very healthy; there are always fruits, vegetables, yogurt, milk, and bread available to you. During my stay here I had a room all to myself, basically a small, fully equipped apartment. It's about a 5 to 10 minute walk to the beach and about 15 minutes from the center of Velipoje. I recommend it if you want a place with a beach and good people. 🐢🐈 (there are about 25 turtles and a cat)
