"The location is great - in Old Town Ohrid. The staff and owner were friendly."
"Stayed in Room 2 which is up 2 flights of stairs and located at the back of the building. The room is small with 3 windows and a bit dark. I had to move the bed to open the third window."
"Villa Jovan is located in the Old Town fairly close to the Main Street that leads to the tour boat dock. It is quiet but not tucked too far away. The young woman, Marija, who checks in guests, cleans, etc was friendly and very helpful! Stayed in Room 4 which is up 2 flights of stairs and overlooks the narrow street below. It is a good sized room with several windows and nice light during the day."

"Ohrid is magical but this place is definitely one of my best stays. Location perfect in steps to lake front. Tons of cafes bars and restaurants. Rooms are located on first and second floors above a jewelry showroom. Checkin was smooth. The lady speaks excellent English. Also got a big bottle of water which was highly appreciated in the summer heat. This property required a card for confirmation but payment was cash upon arrival. As I was single I got a smaller room. There was no AC as stated but a desk fan and a water cooler. That did the job perfectly. The bed was comfortable. A big cupboard too. Bathroom too was a bit small but was ok. Unfortunately there's a strong smell of drainage but that's common in older ex YU places."
"Everything perfect. Will definitely be back."

"We liked everything! This can not be described by words. One must come and see the exceptionally beautiful nature of Mariovo, this village Zovich and the nearby village Staravina. The accomodation offered everything we needed, the host Mitko, his wife and mother were very friendly and helpful, they make extraordinary food in their restaurant, all fresh and of high quality. We will be back again!"
"The owner were really kind. The landscape around the house is great. Good start for hiking. They offer transportation to/from the village of Mavrovi Anovi. They can cook for you if you ask in advance."

"Факта, че за втори път сме гости на хотела говори много за нашата висока оценка. Специално този път искам да отбележа много добрия масажист и вълшебните възстановяващи масажи, които прави. Отношението към нас беше вече като към стари семейни приятели, което направи почивката ни още по-приятна."
