Nick (the manager) was really helpful, which made all the difference since I was travelling solo. The accommodation is located in a great position only 10 min walk from the port and Riva. The apartment was clean and spacious and included everything you need for a short stay.

We stayed in the 2 bedroom apartment and it was fantastic. Very clean and comfortable. The property manager, Nicholas was extremely kind and helpful when we decided at the last minute to extend our stay. If I am lucky enough to return to Split, I will definitely stay here.

The property was in a cute gated compound with easy walking distance to attractions. Nicholas was very helpful during check in process. The only thing that was a bit odd was the sliding bathroom door which had gaps.

Charming and practical

Charming accomodation near the city centre. I especially liked the possibility to enjoy the outside areas, the cooling air conditioning and the kind hosts. We stayed in a one-room flat and had everything we needed. If you want luxury you should find another place, but if you want to enjoy the city of Split and stay at a comfortable and central little flat, this is perfect!

The place was very unique. We had our own little outdoor terrace/sitting area. The rooms were fine, lacking a living room/couch. The location is good, very close to the old area of the city connected by old walking only streets, it was very cool. The city is very nice, wish we had more time there. More pillows for sleeping or more supportive pillows is recommended.

I believe there was an administrative error so we did not get our room in the hotel but staff had found us an alternative which turned out to be an upgrade in our booking. We were grateful that they took care of this without us having to worry at all but can’t provide any comment on the hotel facilities. Check-in was easy and we were provided loads of helpful info for our stay.

Host was extremely accommodating. Rooms were updated and large with small kitchenette, small refrigerator, stove top, dishwasher, table/chairs. Great AC, water pressure, hot water. Only 2 blocks from Old Town. A block from a supermarket. A beautiful courtyard with thousands of grapes hanging from the pergola. Though not advertised, the host let us use the washer & dryer. A really great place to stay in Split!

Fairly ok.. July is high peak in Split so needed room for one night with family.. kind of ok and all works and owner definitely tried but its apartment and not hotel. AC works well and wifi and kitchen etc and bathroom is good.. overall i would say 3star apartment but comparing for hotels 1-2star.. Location is good. If could be better cleaned also the corners and below the bed so it would make bigger improvement.. Still did the job..
