The room I stayed in was quite compact, and I didn't see much of a difference from a standard room. Unfortunately, the room wasn't arranged the next day, and the window faced a wall, making it dark even during the day. The view was also lacking with no sight of the castle.

My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The room was small without a view to the castle, but the staff was friendly and cooperative. The location was nice, near the Old Bazar and Gjirokastra castle, with a beautiful panoramic view. The dining was uninspiring but the facilities were satisfactory.
