Location great in the Old Town, just inside the Pile Gate. Room clean. Small-ish size but plenty of room for two people nonetheless. Bathroom was a very good size however. Although there is no reception as such the proprietor (Vicko) was always available via phone/whatsapp/etc.

The steps up to the room were a challenge with the suitcases (but ok without). Everything else was fine. One thing to note (and this is no reflection on the Palacio Celeste) Dubrovnik is very busy in early September. I have never seen so many tourists in one place. I can't complain though as we are tourists ourselves of course.

Great location in the centre of the old city. Our room was small but nicely decorated, clean, and comfortable. Ensuite was clean with large shower cubicle. The windows opened into a lightwell so no view of the streets, although I'm sure that is common within the old city.

There is no staff on site. All communication was done via Whatapp or email. We didn't get entry instructions until the day of our flight which was a bit worrying. We struggled with luggage up the 3 flights of stairs on arrival and departure.

The property is in the heart of Dubrovnik ‘old town’, situated (on the 2nd floor) in a quiet side road off Placa - Stradun. It’s a clean property with housekeeping services available upon request. The majority of tourist sites are within walking distance. Public transport is accessible (outside the City walls) to enable other towns/places to be visited. Note: The apartment is within the pedestrianised City. If coming from the airport, the drop-off zone is outside the City walls (Pile Gate) and it’s a 5-10 mins walk to the apartment thereafter.

Apartment: Nothing of issue. As an observation larger tea/coffee cups would be useful, together with a simple map (showing the apartment location) from outside the drop off zone (Pile Gate). Dubrovnik: A lovely city. However it becomes very crowded/busy during the day with cruise ship passengers. Best time to explore is either early morning (ahead of the cruise ships) or late afternoon once they have departed.

Location was great. Right in the centre of old town. Easy access to everything and able to enjoy the old town. We could also leave our luggage in the apartment on our departure day which was great. Saved us worrying about what to do with our luggage for the day. Room was clean and bathroom was huge.

The stairs. Although there were no stairs to the apartment entrance as it was on street level there were many stairs to climb to reach the apartment. Once in the apartment we had another level of stairs to climb to access our room. This was OK as I believe stairs are hard to avoid in the old town.

The location is perfect for soaking up the old town. The accommodation is modern, secure and clean. Well maintained and furnished to a good standard, including a fridge. Excellent hosts with extremely responsive communication through WhatsApp. The shower head needed attention, which had clearly not been reported to the host before. I have no doubt that they will have fixed this, after our report.

Access is through a communal doorway, with a dark functional lobby and stairway - there are quite a lot of stairs to negotiate, but the host does offer to help with loading baggage. The windows didn't offer a view of any kind and I don't think any properties inside the old town have a balcony. The buildings are very uniform to preserve the overall style (so this is an observation rather than a criticism).

Room was quiet.

Signage on laneway door would useful, we had to ask helpful neighbours where the property was. The property owner / manager didn’t respond to my question through Booking com. A few phone calls were unanswered and we had to keep calling back. We were greatly assisted by the property house keeper who let us store our bags. An offer from the property manager to transfer our bags from the Pile Gate to accommodation @ 25 Euro / bag regardless of size is a rip off and insult. I would suggest to travellers, book outside of the City Walls as it’s cheaper outside for accommodation and food. Pop into the old city to walk the city walls and museums which can be done in one day. Start early for the city walls to beat the heat.

Made my reservation late at night after flying into Dubrovnik and was quickly contacted via WhatsApp by Vicko who provided thorough instructions on how to check in. Room was modern and clean, bed was comfortable, location can’t be beat. If your plan is to explore the Old Town I’d highly recommend staying here as the location is central and allows you to easily stop by your room if you need a break while sightseeing

The location was incredible--so central. The host was among the best and most communicative of typical people. This is an apartment not a hotel so having this contact --and responsiveness was critical. 10 for this.

Small point is that the front door was a little tricky to find but again the host sent a picture to help. Also, it is up 2 flights of stairs so guests should be prepared to carry luggage up. But really a minor point and should not put anyone off from staying at this very modern, upgraded, great beds, pillows and bathroom.

A lovely apartment in a truly exceptional location. Despite being right in the middle of the Old Town, the room was surprisingly quiet. The host has clearly taken account of feedback because the arrival instructions, via WhatsApp, were super clear and practical - and therefore very helpful indeed.

As other reviews have noted, there are some stairs to navigate if you have large, heavy cases - but there's not much to be done about that. The location of the apartment more than makes up for it. The shower temperature / pressure is also not the best - again, as noted elsewhere. Neither of these issues would put me off returning.

Smooth communication - Vicko contacted us with all necessary information day before our arrival. Thanks to it was easy to find location, which is just a few steps from main walking street Stradun. Apartment location is an absolute win, if you wish to explore Old Town. It is at the flat area of Old Town, so it was convenient to come with luggage. Our room was a bit smaller (the same like the most of the rooms in other old historical towns). There was all we needed - the room was nice and clean, with big walk-in shower and we slept well. When you enter apartment there is a smaller hall - common area for apartments, where we could leave luggage. Our flight was in late afternoon, so it was very helpful. Vicko, thank you also for all your recommendations!

The entrance to building is not yet in the wished shape. It is ok, but it could be more "esthetical".
