Our hotel was not exactly in Tirana, the capital, for which we were really grateful. We had had enough of trying to navigate Albanian cities. Bob had found a hotel for us right next to the Tirana International Airport Nene Tereza (Mother Theresa), which is about seven miles northwest of Tirana. The recently expanded airport has traffic of about 1.5 million passengers per year. (Compare that to LAX, with 64 million passengers per year).
There is no real city surrounding the airport, just a bunch of hotels. Our favorite was this one, the Vila Aeroport Hotel. If we ever return to Albania, I want to stay here:
