Mukava hotelli pienin puuttein erinomaisella sijainnilla
Pros:

Huone oli mukavan kokoinen, näkymä järvelle aivan ihana, henkilökunta ystävällistä ja sijainti erinomainen.

Cons:

Respassa toinen henkilö puhui heikkoa englantia ja kommunikointi oli haastavaa, vaikka hän olikin ihan ystävällinen. Isompi ongelma meille oli se, että huone piti avata ns. Vanhanaikaisella avaimella ja myös lukita se samalla tavalla sisäpuolelta. Tämä on mielestäni hengenvaarallista esimerkiksi tulipalon sattuessa, huoneesta ei pääsisi nopeasti ulos. Aamupala oli hyvin suppea ja hieman raskas, kaipaisi ehdottomasti monipuolistamista. Viimeinen moite tuleekin hiustenkuivaimesta, joka pienimmälläkin teholla toimi joitakin kymmeniä sekunteja kunnes lakkasi toimimasta, jäähtyessään toimi taas samoin pienen hetken. Eli hiuksia ei saanut kuivattua suihkun jälkeen.

Pros:

Ιδανική τοποθεσία, καθαρό ξενοδοχείο, πολύ καλό πρωινό

Cons:

Όποιος διαλέξει να κάνει κράτηση εκεί πρέπει να προσέξει την παγίδα που είναι ότι ενώ κλείνεις δίκλινο δωμάτιο η τιμή είναι κατ'άτομο. Τόσα χρόνια που κλείνω δωμάτια σε διάφορα ταξίδια πρώτη φορά μου συμβαίνει στην άφιξη μου να μου ζητηθεί να πληρώσω διαφορά για το δεύτερο άτομο

his is not just a hotel, it feels like home
Pros:

Spacious room, warm, light, well decorated, with an exceptional view of Ohird Lake and sunset at the old town. I was accommodated on the 3rd floor with an open view of the Lake Ohrid horizon. The breakfast was rich and varied (fresh fruits were included as well). Exceptionally professional and kind staff at the reception (Mrs. Kostadinka is a wonderful and very careful person) and in the restaurant as well. Free parking spot in infront of the hotel

Pros:

The room was relatively small, but it had a balcony with a partial lake view, which made it feel much more enjoyable. The location is excellent — just a short walk from the old town center and the lakeside promenade with boat tours and excursions.

The hotel has its own restaurant and café, and there are many other restaurants and bars nearby if you want more variety. Breakfast was generous and surprisingly diverse, especially the selection of local pastries and traditional sweets, in addition to the usual eggs, cheese, cold cuts, and other standard options. Overall, a very convenient and comfortable base for exploring Ohrid.

Cons:

The TV was small and offered very limited viewing options. I understand the philosophy — if you come to a beautiful lake, you are supposed to enjoy the scenery rather than sit in your room watching television. Still, after a long day of walking and exploring, it is sometimes nice to relax with an interesting movie or at least a few international news channels in different languages.

The placement of the light switches and power sockets was also quite adventurous — right under the pillow area. One unlucky turn during the night and suddenly the room lights up like an emergency landing strip.
