Wegbeschreibung

The biggest problem we experienced last year was probably the people have trouble finding SunnyLake Hostel. Our address is st 11 Oktombri 15, but some maps it looks like we are on Dimce Malenko street. Our hostel is located on the end of st 11 Oktombri. You see our small sign hanging over the street and a big banner at our entrance. If you come by taxi that it will cost (prices from summer 2007)
-from Struga about 5euros
-from Ohrid bus station 2 euros
Tell the taxi driver you want go to 56 or 58 st Klimentov Univerzitet, SunnyLake hostel is 30 m up the road between 56 and 58 and you will see the big SunnyLake hostel banner.
If you are coming by bus from Skopje, you can tell the bus driver to drop you off at the Pazar.
The Ohrid bus station is a 20 minutes walk from center and Old Town. These are the best two options for walking to SunnyLake hostel. If you are unsure of where you are, ask locals where is Star Chinar and follow the map from there. If you are arriving in the evening, it is a good idea to call because the streets of Old Town are narrow, usually don't have street lights, and don't have street signs.
Our staff will most likely be using bicycles to pick up guest from the Bus Station because even on normal summer days, the traffic can be terrible, especially in Old Town.
Bicycles are a faster way to travel and we want to be environmentally friendly too.
If you come whit your own car, call our staff and we will meet you to take you to the hostel (it can be hard to drive through Old Town). At the hostel we have a couple of parking spot but please let us know if you are coming so we can reserve a spot for you. This, of course, is free for our guests.
