All the bedrooms and bathrooms in our three hotels in Albania had pros and cons.

Pros at Theth

The bathrooms at our hotel in Theth were clean and modern.  For me, only one small thing was wrong, nowhere, no ledge or tray or alcove, to put the shower gel in the shower room. Of course that means less for the cleaner to clean and less for you to make a mess of. 

I loved the wooden shelving under the basin the wooden shelf below for the towels and toilet paper.

Cons At Theth

Other guests complained about the lack of  a toilet roll holder. One guests said, 'I just knocked the toilet roll off the shelf and it rolled across the dirty floor. That's not hygienic. Toilet rolls are liable to roll around. A toilet roll needs to be securely fixed.'

Fiona, a friendly family member on the hotel's front desk, assured me that after her family had had a disagreement about whether toilet roll holders were necessary, the devices were now on order.

We also had only two hangers each (four in a room for two people) for a five night stay. In a hotel which returns laundry on wire hangers, you get hangers that way, without needing to bring them from home. A friend of mine in another room was travelling light, not unpacking, washing clothes out overnight, using a linen blouse which dried overnight. She gave me two hangers.

Pros In Tirana

I was impressed by the coiled belts of the bathrobes in the bedrooms of the Crown Hotel in Tirana, the capital of Albania.

Pros in Dhermi Beach at La Brisa Hotel

My husband was more impressed by the practicality and convenience of the bathrobes at La Brisa Hotel in Dhermi Beach, where the belts were threaded through the two lookps.
