Blue Lake hostel

Thank you, Vesna and Nino! It’s rare to find a hostel like this. The atmosphere and the people made it such a wonderful place, right next to the dreamlike lake. It was so easy to just enjoy life there. Hope to be back :)

OK, let me explain. My last morning, my toothbrush cap accidentally fell into a recently used toilet. I could have just left it, maybe flushed it. However, due to the fact that Vesna and Nino (the owners) were so kind, the staff so helpful, the other guests were generally nice and respectful, and knowing that North Macedonian plumbing can be delicate that might end up costing Blue Lake Hostel hundreds or thousands to fix if I did nothing, I simply reached in, grabbed it, threw it away, then thoroughly decontaminated my hands. If THAT does not let you know how special a place this is, then I do not know what will. Stay with confidence and relax.

Had to leave.

Location is great. Olivia and the owner are lovely and helpful.

Cold water but staff was helpful to help and they’re working on the situation. Very noisy and chaotic with some of the longer term people the first night. Not as private as I one might expect in the room. But manager is aware and tried to help.

Friendly staff.

A lot of dust on the floor, dirty matras, AC not working, noisy.
