host was very helpful and met us at taxi drop off area to show us how to get to property. He had sent a video for us, but we were a little confused so it was very nice of him to meet us! The room was beautiful and clean! Beautiful sea view from 2 windows that open. Bed was very comfortable, AC worked great, and room was quiet. Location was perfect and close to everything! Would definitely stay there again for next trip to Split!

I LOVED this apartment. It is beautifully updated- looks straignt from HGTV! The kitchen was modern, the floors were gorgeous, and the stone wall/exposed beams in the ceiling made it look so authentic to the area. Only one caution is that you have to go up LOTS of stairs to get to the apt and the area feels a bit scary but is fine once you get in the building. Bed is very firm. Highly recommend. So convenient.

The location of the property could not have been better. Even though it is a extremely busy area, the sound proofing in the windows makes for a quiet stay. My one and only complaint is that for this price they should have had separate shampoo, conditioner and shower gel. They had one bottle of soap in the shower to wash everything and no conditioner!
