Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Small-scale, single suite — With only one Deluxe King Suite, availability is limited and the property lacks the facilities of a larger hotel, such as a reception or common areas.
  • Potential noise in the old town — While guests note the area is surprisingly quiet given the central location, the property is surrounded by bars and restaurants, so light sleepers may still notice activity.
  • Stairs and no elevator — The suite is on the first floor, accessed via a narrow staircase with handrails, which could be challenging for those with mobility issues or heavy luggage.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accept pets, which may be a drawback for travelers wanting to bring their animal companions.

“The apartment's modern design was stunning and felt brand new. Bed, sheets, and towels were top quality. The host responded quickly by text. The location was perfect, right in the city center. Our airport shuttle was arranged by the host. The spacious, Scandinavian-style apartment had a well-equipped kitchenette, and we even found drinks and snacks in the fridge. The shower had great pressure and the air conditioning was strong. We were in the heart of the old town, yet it was quiet. The host's coffee bar suggestions and nearby breakfast spots were excellent.”

“Our stay in this beautiful studio was mind-blowing. The mattress was excellent, the decor lovely, and everything was spotless. The location was super convenient, surrounded by great food and a stunning promenade nearby. We felt like VIPs – every detail was thought of, even birthday candles. The owner was incredibly helpful, checking in and offering great beach and food recommendations. The room had no flaws. The host was welcoming and check-in was easy. The fridge had drinks and snacks, and the small kitchen with tea and coffee was a bonus. The view overlooked a park and statue. The shower was powerful and the AC a lifesaver. Despite being in the old town's heart, it was quiet. Breakfast spots near by were excellent.”

“Amazing stay, perfect location, modern renovation, comfortable, refreshing AC, silent and light-blocking curtains, and great communication with Filip.”
