The staff is friendly and easy-going. The room is spacious, clean and quiet. The location of the property is nice - within walkable distance from the old town of Split and there are supermarkets, bakeries, cafes and restaurants within very close proximity. It is a accommodation option with a very high CP value even breakfast is not included. High recommanded!

The place is located at a walkable distance from the old town and also near to bus stops if you decide to take public transportation. The room was good sized and well equipped. Communication from the host was also good and welcoming. The main issue that we encounter were the beds!!! They were so damn squeaky that we could barely sleep through the night. I hope the owner gets some new beds. Other issue around the place is parking (if you have a car). The lane of the hotel has free parking is always flooded with cars. There is barely any place and people even park in such a ways that block you from exiting. But parking is something we can't hold against the hotel since they offer €15/day parking that guarantees you the place.

Let’s start with the positives: - convenient location - newly renovated building - sufficient amenities, ie, towels, cutlery, etc. Next, the so-so: - main door into the building was always unlocked. The lock at the time of our stay was broken. - the pillows (two on the double bed, which means one per person) were very thin and didn’t offer any support against the metal headboard. - there were no clothes hangers in the room. Inside this massive, custom-made wardrobe - no clothes hangers. Next, the absolute horrible: - we stayed in the apartment C2 and the smell of methane (sewer) gas was very strong. Nothing could mask it, the open window in the washroom, the flushing of the drains, the open window in the main room, nothing. It is obvious that the owner is trying to maintain the building in good condition and make it attractive to the short-term tenants. Umbrellas in the lobby, clean hallways, newly renovated exterior of the building, newly renovated interior of the building, are all the indicators of a good host. Unfortunately, whoever did the plumbing in C2 washroom didn’t do a good job with air venting, thus causing the sewer gas seeping into the inside air.

Good location for walk to centre of Split
Good location for visiting the centre of Split, 10 mins walk. Slightly difficult to find on arrival but the lady had texted about arrival time so we were able to call her and she popped out to find us. Parking also difficult but again she saved us a space. Note - the rooms didn't have a kettle there's a saucepan to heat water up with. Shops nearby to buy supplies or breakfast.

Great place
THis was probably our favorite place to stay while we were in Croatia. It's a bit of a walk from the old city, about 15 minutes. The staff was friendly and helpful. There were no toiletries provided so come prepared. it's a bit hard to find the first time as it is off the main street. There is an wonderful bakery just around the corner.

Excellent location and good value
Located within 10 minutes of Split harbour it is really convenient for all local attractions. The room was very clean when I arrived though there was no housekeeping during the week I stayed. The room was well equipped and had good aircon. Only negative was a lack of towels, fortunately brought my own for the beach. Communication was good in advance and airport transfer is offered at market rate, with a friendly welcome. Alternatively it is next door to the bus station. Overall it is great value for money.

Cheap and cheerful
Good apartment in a small block about a 7-8 minute walk from the main areas of Split. Decor is a little dated but it was clean and tidy. Very much focused on self-sufficiency so no cleaners or reception but we got a very quick response when we e-mailed about one small issue. Supermarket and cafes near-by - including an amazing pancake place that was perfect for breakfast!

Perfect stay in Split
Great communication with staff, enabling me to settle into hotel early once I arrived at Split. Staff were very helpful and efficient. I felt very safe, this was very important I as I was travelling alone. I was given a map of Split and advised of scenic areas and 'Not to miss panoramic views'. The walk into the centre of Split was well lit and busy, once again I felt safe to walk by myself in the evening. A good value hotel, one I would use again if I returned to Split, Thank you. Jane P.

Exactly what we needed on a short visit to Split
Completely understand why 100% of guests recommend this property. We had a quick overnight in Split before heading to Hvar on a ferry and this property was exactly what we needed! Zrinka at the front desk was super welcoming and professional. I don't think I've ever had a hotel staff member be so kind and helpful. At check-in, Zrinka helped us find street parking, quickly got us in our room and gave us ideas of what to do and where to go in the city. At check-out, she even wrote down the bus lines we'd need later in our trip to get us to the Split Airport and how to make reservations. The rooms were nice and the bed was comfortable. Air conditioning worked well and was a relief after a hot day outside. We had a sink in the room and even a washing machine for our clothes, but we didn't use it. Thank you, Zrinka!
