"The location was perfect, so close to center. The staff were so kind and helpful they try to make everything good for you."

"It was okay that the place was a little bit old however but I suggest the bedsheets could have been cleaner"

Efrat - 18/11/2025 12:38:16

"Great location, walking distance to the center and many restaurants. Convenient parking that was free on the weekend. A small, private room that was both hot and cozy. The bathroom was shared among three rooms and was extremely clean. The staff was very nice. Highly recommended!"

"No bedside tables. Some minor things needed fixing."

"The host, Goran was the highlight for us at Hostel42! Checked in and paid by card and then Goran and I traded intros (he played Volleyball in the Moscow 1980 Olympics for Yugoslavia!). We then walked outside down the street and he pointed out a few key points such as bus stops, a bakery, grocery store, and where to eat nearby. He shared some restaurant tips that night as well. Regarding the quad room, it was spacious with good beds and furniture. Room was good temperature for sleeping in mid October. Bathrooms were also good (2 people showering at same time had plenty of hot water when used wisely). Kitchen had fridge and water boiler which we used to store food and also make coffee in the morning. Free Turkish coffee available!"

"The smaller shower door wouldn’t open or close fully, needs some repair. Bigger shower had no issues. If you are sensitive to noise, some rooms face a major street so car noise may be bothersome. Very few cars around though later at 11-12am so no issues sleeping for us."

Grato - 11/10/2025 20:07:37

"Hostel was great and I was able to communicate with the owner via whatsapp. The staff working in the hostel are courteous and helpful. Location is great, walking distance to main square and the bohemian area of Skopje full of restaurants and bars"

"Nothing"

Avis de Kristijan Kice Apartments

"For us it was a good location and actually not other options near by to choose. It is secluded and quiet has free parking and its a big bonus. The onsite restaurant serves good food. The staff lady was very nice, she even brought us a kettle upon request. The room was big and bed was comfy."
