Perfect location in old town, right by the golden gates. Clean room, bare bones but did the job well! They provided a few great recommendations for restaurants. Sinisa was able to get us from the airport for a small fee. Would stay here again.

The location was incredible. People who saw us coming out of our place couldn’t believe we were actually staying there! We opened our doors to hear a small concert going on in the courtyard below - it was fantastic. Warning: you do need earplugs to sleep at night; but otherwise, the location at the gateway to Old Split was perfect.

Super central...but some downsides!

Couldn't be more central- location is perfect. However, 56 spiral stairs to access the room, which was serviced only once during our 4 night stay. Towels were like cardboard! Not accommodation for guests with mobility issues. Staff helpful in arranging transfers and transporting cases.

Split Room Built into the Golden Gate of Palace

The most historic place I’ve ever overnighted at. This one includes as the Golden Gate at Diocletian’s Palace as part of its walls. The huge limestone blocks were put together about 300 AD for the construction of the Palace the Roman Emperor built for his retirement in Split, Croatia. Two windows of the unit overlook the vestibule of the Palce’s Golden Gate entrance and a tiny one overlooks the park across the street from the Palace. While the comfortable unit is well- insulated with it’s thick walls, it also has modern appointments such as AC a refrigerator and a sizable bathroom with modern plumbing you’d see in any hotel. Travelers with physical limitations need to be aware the stairs to the second floor unit are narrow and steep- similar to historic buildings in Amsterdam. Great place to stay while visiting Split!

Two nights

The location is very good, the directions were good, the air-conditioning was fine, the furnishings are fairly dated and as others have said the stairs are pretty steep and if you have large heavy luggage it will work you out... Overall not a bad place for the price.

There was a kitchen and a nice bed and the location is unbeatable. Bathroom was really small and the fridges were not cold and only one burner on the stove top worked. Overall I would stay here again knowing what to expect.

Great location - in the castle of the old town. Cool to sleep in a castle. The host was really nice and helped me get settled in. Be warned you need to climb 4 flights of stairs so difficult with suitcases but he explained he can’t change the exterior of the building as it’s heritage site. Could do with some additional amenities like soap. Room was comfortable and spacious and clean

noisy noisy. if people are out drunk and hollering your hear it. you hear the bells at all hours of the day and morning. you hear the neighbours. rooms need a good thourough clean. host was super nice. stairs up suck. if someone has real heavy big luggage not sure how that would work. wifi was good. shower was awkward. hot water yes. but the way the hand held was mounted it was useless. rain fall not much pressure as there is a leak or something. as much water falls out the side as the actual shower head.
