The house is high up in the mountains. We rode our motorcycles there. The track to the house is rocky so I’d say don’t attempt it unless you are fairly confident with your off road riding skills. They also do a pick up service. The house overlooks the town and there’s mountains in all directions. It has the most breathtaking view. We originally wanted to just stay one night but changed it to four because it’s so beautiful up in the mountains. The host are an elderly couple who don’t speak English. They try their best to be hospitable. We had dinner at the house made my the hostess every night. Dinner is simple and satisfying. Breakfast is included. It is an Albanian donut like ball thing with jam and honey. I love this donut thing. She makes them fresh in the morning. The house has a fireplace and they started a massive blazing fire for us to dry our motorcycle clothes after we did the laundry using their washing machine. There are chickens, a cow, a sheep, and a few horses in their garden. There’s the animal part of the garden and there’s the human part of the garden. Sometimes the animals would walk over to the human side and the hostess would come out of nowhere and chase them back. It was quite a hilarious scene to watch a naughty horse and cow in trouble slowly walk past the window with a lady behind them shooing them. The couple are really really nice and made our stay very enjoyable and personable. The WiFi works quite well. About 20-30 mbps. Good enough for zoom calls and Netflix. Better than a restaurant’s WiFi down in Theth. WiFi connection is available only in a few places though mainly the living room. In certain corners if the room you might get signal.

Location was great if your walking the valbonë-theth hike. The room was super nice with a cozy balcony. The room and hotel in general, was very clean. We had dinner there which was very nice and tasty. Breakfast was also good. Traditional Albanian breakfast which we have eaten in every city , but in a buffet style, which was the first time we had. This was especially nice since you then can choose how much you want of the different «dishes». The staff was also great, helped us with booking taxi back to shköder/tiranë. Very service minded and entertaining.

The hospitality of this family is over the top! Staying in the Rama guesthouse was really an authentic experience. Even though the guesthouse is still under construction, we were provided with everything we needed, the bed was very comfortable. We had a very delicious vegetarian dinner, they packed the breakfast for the hike and even dropped us off closer to the Theth hike start. Even though the grownups did not talk in English very well, the children were more than happy to chat or help. Recommended!

We are a family of 4 and we have been very satisfied with our 4 night stay. The host is very welcoming and speaks good English. We had lovely homemade breakfast and dinner every day. We would definitely recommend Camping Freskia, and hope that we will have the opportunity to revisit this beautiful place again.

I was the only guest here the night I stayed. The staff were incredibly kind and hospitable. Location is right on the trail for Valbone-Theth hike and stunning views. Meals were served 2 minutes down at their house. The room and bathroom were very clean and comfortable. There is also a long walk to the hostel which is the start of the Valbone-Theth hike so just means your getting this section done before you set off in the morning which is nice.
