This is a really good value option in a capital city that is building lots of high-end hotels.  My room was a single room but not too small with a private bathroom.  The decor was a little tired at that price, I found it more than acceptable.  The staff were incredibly friendly with excellent English and couldn't be more helpful with advice and eg. booking a taxi.  The location is excellent, less than 10 minutes to Skanderbeg Square and everything that has to offer.  Breakfast was not what I'm used to - but it gave me something to eat to start the day.

For the price, this hotel is MORE than you'd expect to get.  

I did struggle to find it from the address (and Google maps!) - check carefully so you don't walk too far.

Brilliant value for money, friendly staff, great location

I love this place. Well situated, in the heart of Tirana, but without being too noisy. Clean rooms, friendly staff, excellent service. The food of the restaurant is also amazing. Keep up the good work guys!! 

Great place, in the heart of the city, with the nicest staff🥰

The joy of this hotel is on its history. Yes rooms are small but you haven't come to Tirana to stay in your room! The other great thing about the hotel is it's staff; so helpful and friendly - not a given in Albania. We stayed as part of a group tour do I can't comment on value for money. 
Our room was a twin, first floor at front of hotel. Large balcony but too hot to use when we there. There was a fridge and compact shower room, plenty of hot water. Noisey at night with traffic until about midnight.
The location of the hotel is spot on. Close to the city centre, most sites in easy walking distance, as are loads of restaurants. Three mini marts close to hotel. Come out of front door and turn left for a great pub and a little further on a cafe for coffee, cake and sandwiches.
Breakfast in the hotel is plentiful and standard Albanian. Eggs, bread, cheese, fruit - buffet so eat as much as you want! We also hot washing done. Handed in the afternoon we arrived, got it back that night. 5 euros for one bag. 
If you want something different to the homogeneous multi nationals then this is for you.

Character and good service

A 23 euro taxi ride from the airport,  right in the city centre 5 minute walk from Skanderberg Square.  I had a single room,  it was adequate,  good shower lots of hot water. Comfortable bed , WiFi OK did the job. Reception staff helpful and friendly.  5 euros will get a bag of washing done , quick turn around. Breakfast OK, eggs , sausage,  toast , fruit yoghurt,  , Albanians not that big on Breakfast . I had an evening meal in the hotel , salad , veal medallions and vegetable risotto,  it was OK filled a gap , the WiFi in the dining room is good. There's a supermarket a few minutes walk away.  Decent hotel for a couple of nights.

 Warning,  if you have difficulty with stairs do not stay here , lots of stairs and no lift.

If you have difficulty with stairs do not stay here

This hotel has the best location. Lots of restaurants all within in easy walking distance. Very convenient for the main square which is also just a short walk. The breakfast is superb. The reception staff are adorable. Always helpful and a friendly greeting. I didn't have to tell them my room number. They always remembered) I would recommend this hotel

Great location

This was the group hotel for two nights. It is well located in a rather quiet neighbourhood, some 6-7M from Skanderbeg Square. I get the impression it was converted from an upper class home re the layout. Check in was efficient, a complimentary bottle of water welcome. My single room was expectedly small ie with no place to put the luggage, you adapt. The a/c was very good. The bathroom was fine, including soap and shampoo. No coffee making facilities were available. Wifi signal was excellent. Not a big concern but I could hear the shower next door. There is a small safe in the room. Happy to have a firm mattress. The breakfast was very good. You got your java from the bar and there was a buffet with ample enough choice. It’s a solid choice if staying in the capital.

A GOOD CHOICE

My son and I stayed here for a weekend in Tirana (recommended for a city-break), ahead of a walking tour in northern Albania.  Villa Tafaj is an attractive low-rise hotel, as its photo shows, which is conveniently located just five minutes walk from the city's central Skanderbeg Square, with the airport bus stop just off the opposite corner of the pedestrianised square, and most of the city's main tourist sights nearby.  Our room was cosy but with comfortable beds, very effective air conditioning, and a good range of satellite TV channels.  We booked a room with a balcony, which turned out to be a substantial outside area with table and chairs, overlooking the street -  I would definitely recommend going for this, if available.  Our room was cleaned and tidied - twice in one day!  The buffet breakfast on our first morning (Saturday) was pretty dismal, but on the Sunday the waiter-delivered a la carte breakfast from a sizable range of options was much better.  Be aware that the hotel prefers to be paid in cash rather than credit card; fortunately, as the room-rate was quite modest (55 euros a night for our double room, through booking.com), we had enough spare cash, although I'm sure they would have accepted payment by credit card if necessary.  All in all, we were pleased with our choice of Villa Tafaj for our inexpensive and conveniently located accommodation in what proved an unexpectedly pleasant, friendly and interesting city.

A good choice for a Tirana city-break

Stayed here at the end of tour. Hotel is centrally located and has a lovely courtyard. Room was good size and comfortable for a few nights visiting the city. 

Staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. Very helpful with changing a night to visit Berat. Keen to help wherever possible and print boarding passes for us with online check in not available on departure.

Breakfast was reasonable, a little oily for me so some room for improvement. 

Recommend for short stay in town 

Central location, comfortable and very friendly service 

Some features of the hotel's location were good: quiet neighborhood, close to Skanderbeg Square and close to mini-markets for bottled water and snacks. However, other than the hotel's restaurant, there was nowhere close by to eat. (The hotel's food was adequate but unimaginative.)
The "geography"/architecture of the hotel was very strange: lots of separate buildings haphazardly joined together with little passageways and interminable steps!
My room was very small, up in the attic with a sloping walls and not a proper window' that overlooked other sections of roof. The curtain was gauze that couldn't close (sloping wall). 
Pros: clean, quiet, AC worked well, shower was hot and powerful
Cons: difficult to locate central light switch, no switch for bedside light (I had to carry the desk light to my bedside). And breakfast was not good: only white bread, eggs premade so solid and oily, no fruit, no self-service coffee/tea so you had to go to another counter to order it so it took quite some time.
Staff friendly and helpful.

Adequate ...

Spent 3 nights here
Very well situated, barely 5 mins walk from main square, 10 mins from airport bus stop
Friendly staff
Something of a warren inside, and no fire escape instructions in room
Our twin room was 1st floor front with two large windows. Traffic a bit noisy
Large wardrobe but full of bedding
Safe didn't work
Bathroom shower fine. Sink plug did not work. Plenty of hot water
Bed firm but comfortable
Room smelt whenever we returned to it unless we left windows open/bathroom blower on
Breakfast fairly typical Eastern Europe continental ie meat, salad, cheese. 2 cereals, some warm options, orange juice which was almost juice rather than squash.
Breakfast disappointments - City is stuffed with wonderful bakeries but the only bread was soul-less white sliced pulp, and there were cellophane wrapped jam/chocolate sponges but no croissants or suchlike. "Management supplied photo" shows a tier of fresh fruit but in reality none provided despite all the lovely shops nearby
They don't tell you but there is a covered outside eating area beyond the breakfast room which is a more pleasant place to eat in
Fridge in room
TV but no international channels
I had tremendous problems with WiFi - weal signal, flaky connection though others seemed to be OK.
