True for the middle of the country where OP will be but in the northern part is is mostly Catholic dating back to the HRE and in the southern part there is a lot of Orthodox, I assume since it borders Greece. A large part of the Islamists are in name only and aren't practicing.
Like any country particularly ones that aren't major American allies, I would suggest checking the State Department for travel alerts and logging your trip in their STEP program. We have never had an incident anywhere but I log trips to almost all countries just in case.
Someone mentioned bandits in the hills. They are mostly associated with drugs/cartels (they grow a lot of pot there) but like a lot of countries staying in and around the resort cities removes a lot of that danger. Albania is a country I wouldn't rent a car and run off to uncharted areas for a hike and picnic.

I think the wildest story about Albania is the country falling into civil unrest in the 90s because everyone was involved in pyramid schemes.
