    Really central location. You can see the airport bus stop from the window! The place was spotlessly clean and there was a great bar opposite. We had to book last minute and the owner was really quick at communicating.

    The Loft was in a really wonderful location. I appreciated that the hosts let me in early and also let me stay late, even though they had another guest coming in. The atmosphere at the Loft is rustic and charming; so much nicer than a boring hotel...

    The host was very kind and helpful. The apartment was big. The location is great (beside the airport bus, near the centre of Tirana). The building is old and quiet (I was alone in the building).

Gjon Papajani
Designed by Italian architects in 1930, it was considered as one of Tirana symbols. It was build by Gjon Laca, the famous Tailor and Kaceli brothers, a well known family in Tirana. The building has seen better days, but resisted to different system changes. Now it remains as a unique building of that period, strongly protected by the owners. Other Buildings of that period are demolished to open space for new sky towers.
I reconstructed the roof and the loft eight years back, focusing on protecting all wooden bins and columns as you see on photos. The decoration is simple and practical with everything guests might need. I couldn't resist adding old piece of furniture from different periods on there.
The property is right in the center of Tirana very close to the Skanderbeg square. Within 100m there are: Airport bus station, National History Museum, Et'hem Bej Mosque, National Arts Gallery, Bunk'Art2, House of Leaves, National Albanian Library and Adrion Bookstore. Italian style caffe 'Plaz'Oro' is on the building ground floor. Nice coffee shops, restaurants and Toptani shopping center are very close. 'Rossman & Lala' and 'Big Market' are only 200m away
