really nice hostel, owner was super friendly and helpful, location is excellent and a 5 min walk from the lakefront, and everything was clean

I was stranded outside, waiting 2 hours for a staff member to return from the gym so that he can check me in. Ruined my plans for the day. Also no hot water from the shower. Staff were apologetic & helpful with information about the area but that was the most frustrating check in I've ever experienced at a hostel

I didn’t feel super safe here as there were no locks on the rooms or hostel generally. My room was ground level and just a few metres from the road with no security inbetween. The staff were kind though and the location was ideal. Showers could use some love.

Really loved this hostel, has a real home feel to it, and only minutes away from the lake. Nino is the best, so friendly and helpful with anything you need from day trips to travels further on, and generally great for a chat.

Had a great stay in Ohrid. The hostel was well equipped for cooking, and had this lovely terrace for socializing with other guests. Special thanks to Nino who was very friendly and served us very good Macedonian Rakia.

Une auberge fidèle à ce qu'on attend pour un road trip. Le personnel est sympathique, il y a une pièce à vivre commune propice aux échanges et une table de ping-pong pour faire passer le temps quand il ne fait pas beau. Je recommande.

A brief stay, so really hard to judge the place as I wasn't there long enough to get a good impression. The staff were very helpful to provide assistance in organising transport to another destination with an early departure. Perhaps the hot water needs addressing as the water pressure ran down quickly and had to wash in cold water.

the staff was always super nice and attentive, atmosphere was always enjoyable and warm, given by a staff that helped it be like that. The hostel itself is comfortable, it has actual beds and more than enough toilets and showers. Would definitely go again.
