Situated in Ohrid, Majap hostel offers beachfront accommodation 2.7 km from Saraiste Beach and features various facilities, such as a garden, a shared lounge and a terrace. Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and luggage storage space, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The property is non-smoking and is located 1.4 km from Early Christian Basilica.

The facilities were great, abundant, and easy to use. Most importantly, it was really clean and looking new. The room was simple but comfortable with a wardrobe present and chests of drawers to keep your stuff compartmentalized. The kitchen is great too. One can play pool for some extra money even. The water pressure in the bathroom is excellent. The location is outside of old town but it makes for some good walking exercise.

Facilities were clean and comfortable and had all the elements I love to have at hostels - comfy bed with enough space and a curtain for a bit more privacy, clean bathroom and always available hot water, welcoming and spacious common area and a kitchen that had all the necessary elements. The staff, Natasa and Miki were the best part of the whole experience, they created such a lovely and welcoming atmosphere, always there to recommend fun things to do and good tips for getting around the Ohrid. There is something magical about the Old town hostel - during my stay I felt like I am with old and beloved friends while constantly meeting new, and I was simply enjoying sharing memories with fascinating people.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Can't recommend more, for the hostels location close to everything, normal beds, luxury now when all have bunk beds, bathroom in each room, but more important the host - Vesna - who made my stay unforgettable. I have never ever met such hospitable hosts in my life who made my short trip so comfortable and easy like I were a local. She gave me a lot of tips that you would never find in internet being a traveller. All five stars hotels shade away when it comes to blue lake hostel. Wholeheartedly recommended!

    The best hostel we have ever stayed in! The private room + ensuite was comfortable and spacious. Good wifi. The share areas were easy to use and big enough for large groups. There were activities (free or very cheap) nearly every night. Micky was awesome, encouraging everyone to get involved in socialising. He made us feel very welcomed and gave us heaps of awesome recommendations. Thank you Micky!!

    Possibly the best hostel I've ever stayed in. Great security, clean facilities, and the most amazing staff. The kitchen has everything you could need and the atmosphere was just amazing for a backpacker. They run a sunset boat tour every two nights with included wine, so make sure to stay for more than one night!

    So many great facilities that every hostel should have. For example curtains on the bunk beds for privacy and a shelf to put your phone when it's charging. Great location and helpful owners.

    Everything, Sunny Lake is the best hostel! I had a really great time there. The people that stay there are true backpackers, and the owner Nino is just the best! Hope to come again to Ohrid and stay there!
