Have to get down to The Old Town to get food and drink. 15minutes walk through stairs.
Room is basic, clean, provide water, tea, coffee.

I had a wonderful stay at this lovely apartment in Dubrovnik. The host was every bit as warm and friendly as their big, shaggy dog — a real welcome after a long journey. The apartment itself was simple, spotless, and had everything I needed for a comfortable stay.

The views were absolutely stunning — sweeping across the old city from a peaceful garden filled with vibrant citrus trees and fragrant herbs. It was the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring.

A friendly local bar and small shop are just a short walk away, though it’s worth noting — like everywhere in Dubrovnik, that walk involves plenty of stairs. It’s all part of the city’s charm (and your daily workout is included!).

All in all, a wonderful stay — comfortable, scenic, and full of character. Highly recommended.

If you take Uber, it is very easy to move to old town but If you would like to move by foot, It is not necessary to go to gym. The balcony view was one of my best view to see sunset and the beautiful scenery of Dubrovnik. I would like to stay again definitely when I visit Dubrovnik later.

It has a bit of steps to get up to but it was well worth it with amazing views of Old Town and Lokrum Island at your door step. Amenities were good enough for us on a short trip and a small kitchenette was handy too. Thanks to Katarina too for helping with any queries we had along the way

The view is entirely worth it. I would recommend taking Uber to the right side of the place where it has a road. This way you can skip the stairs which can be challenging for some people but this is just part of the country's culture. If you will need to lift your luggage. But the view will blow your expectations. If you get to the far left room facing the city, you will get the best view.

Feels like \"stairway to heaven\" with over 400 stairs (not steps) from Iza Graba (main street). For the rate, it was decent accommodation, perhaps not more than a couple of days. A check-out of 11:00 - as opposed to 10:00 - might be better suites for the location. Needless to say, the views of the old city were worth the hike!

Wonderful Views

Zrinka the owner, was very helpful . The views were spectacular!
If you stay in unit seven, and plan to cook...be advised there is no hot water in the kitchen. Also there is no freezer and no oven or microwave. Bed was good and balcony view was fabulous. Better be in great shape to carry your luggage up these stairs.

The views over the old town and ocean are postcard beautiful. Clean but smallish rooms, friendly hosts and good Wi-Fi.
The walk down the 400 steps to the Old Town is ok, but coming back late at night in the dark you can get easily lost.
Big suitcases not recommended -104 stairs from road to room.
Pack light and treat it as great exercise because the views are worth it.

When can I go back

We had a wonderful time staying here, zrinka was so welcoming and helpful. The room was big and comfortable with a full size fridge, hob, kitchen sink, and dining table. The real win is the balcony and view of the old city and lokrum which is spectacular. The stairs are a bit of a killer but that's just part of Dubrovnik's charm. Would definitely stay here again and strongly recommend you do too

The best view in town! Cannot beat it though you have to pay for it with the walk up to the apartment (over 400 steps up!) so would not recommend for the unfit! The room was very clean, included aircon, fridge and private balcony.
The hosts were very nice, made recommendations for our visit and were very accomodating to us arriving early and leaving our luggage after check out. Would recommend!

Stunning views, great apartment

Zrinka (the owner) is an amazing host. We had drinks in the fridge on arrival and she helped us with our luggage and gave us all the information we needed. We stayed in a one bedroom apartment, which catered for all our needs. The view over Dubrovnik is simply stunning! The only down side is the steps to the property from the old town area. We were a group of 2, aged 39 and 66 and they were killer! We only went out for one dinner at the old town and on that day we took a taxi back from the beach during the day and also after dinner (cost is between £7-12) because we knew we wouldn’t want to do the steps again. However, I would still return and stay at this property again!

The view is amazing. Enjoyed balcony, a.c., WiFi & Accommodations. While the stairs & climb up to property took 20 minutes from city gate. It was only 10 minutes down to city gate, if you are in physical condition to walk stairs, this place is fabulous. My husband & I are 67 & 72. Fair price. Host is very friendly. Highly recommend. The challenge is luggage.

Such a welcoming host and a lovely view

Arrived by bus from Split. It's a bit of a walk from the bus station at Pile gate - there is a bus station much closer, although I didn't know that initially. Worth looking up if you have a lot of luggage. The airport shuttle leaves very close to this location, so that's a big plus!

The hostess was super welcoming and helpful. When the WiFi went out I called her and it was fixed within minutes.

My room was impeccably clean, shower is nice and big, balcony is big and has an amazing view. The fast food place and the café on the street below are quite decent and very affordable.

Make no mistake - there are over 400 steps from the old town to the location. If you have knee problems, you should probably consider somewhere else. If not - it is very much worth it, the view is amazing!

Excellent location and Zarinka was very nice and responsive. Nightime it was quiet and we were there end Dec. The kitchen could use a bit more utensils and dishes. A bit of smoke permeated the place; not sure if it was the last tenant or a neighbor was smoking. Smoking is much more common in Croatia then we are used too and we found it annoying.
As others have stated, it's quite a walk up the stairs, only fit people should stay there. Loved the old city and found the distance between the guesthouse and the city to be a nice break with no need for taxi's/uber.

Don’t underestimate the amount of stairs.

The view is fantastic, but I’m not sure all the stairs are worth it. The owners are kind enough to carry your luggage for you, which helps, and they offer pick up/drop off for the airport for an additional fee, which is also great, but the stairs are a real hassle, especially at night.

Lovely guesthouse with a fabulous view from the terrace across the old town. The owners were very friendly and welcoming. Room was a good size with nice furnishings and a comfortable bed. There are tables and chairs on the terrace to sit out an enjoy the view.
Getting to the property does require walking up a lot of steps however the view was more than worth it for us. If you struggle with stairs though then I would be cautious: a taxi can only drop you at the nearest road which is still about 20+ steps from the property.
Overall highly recommend if you are okay with stairs!

Incredible views, comfortable, clean, modern.

Wonderful stay. Zrinka was very welcoming and immediately made us feel at home. The room itself was very clean, comfortable, modern/updated, and had one of the best views of Dubrovnik from the balcony. We loved enjoying breakfast and dinner there whether while watching the sun set or the storms roll in. Highly recommend.

Oh, be aware that there are indeed many many steps to get to the apartment, but if you are in decent shape you'll be fine. We didn't have any issues. The benefit is that you'll have incredible views and no tourists around you. Also, the steps lead directly to one of the dates to where the old city, which is quite nice.

Amazing view, but you earn it

Like others have said this is a very steep climb up to get to. I did not realize how far from town it would be. Be sure to bring water/food/whatever because there is no nearby store to quickly run to. There was no bottled water in room, and tap water depends on rainfall so bring water.
Our room was new and clean, but very, very small. Think cruise ship size room, bathroom and tiny shower. We had twin beds, and in order to split them up, needed to move the bedside table to the balcony! Owners very helpful and nice, views outstanding.

Fantastic views, welcome host!

Zrinka was amazing, made us feel really welcome and was incredibly helpful - even offered to book our transfer back to the airport when it was time to leave and gave us an overview of the best locations in the town. There were a few snacks and drinks waiting for us in the apartment upon arrival also! The location is stunning, yes as everyone says the stairs are a lot to handle, but the view at the top is really worth it and it gets easier day by day. Had a great time here!

Fantastic accommodation

This was a lovely place to stay with a brilliant host. There is plenty to see and do within a close distance. The only downside was the amount of steps and would not be suitable for someone with mobility issues. We had 103 steps to climb just to get to the room. The upside to this was the brilliant view that we had to look out at

We absolutely loved the terrace that overlooked the gated city and sea! The host,Zrinka, was very kind and gave us tips. She was available every time we were in need of her. We stayed in her studio apartment and it was perfect for 2 people. Air conditioner worked great, she had instant coffee, and 2 guest beers upon arrival.
I did read that there were a lot of steps to apartment.I love a good workout, but for those that can not do all the stairs, book a ride from the airport to her place so that you are not wondering around with all your luggage.This city is on a mountain side and everywhere above the gated city is straight up stairs.
Your driver will drive you to the bottom of her stairs and you will still have quite a hike up with your luggage. I believe there is Uber and taxi's that can bring you from the city up to apartments bottom stairs when you are too tired to hike up all the stairs.We thought it was worth the stairs, because the terrace was so nice. We enjoyed having a drink on it every night and watching the city below. Highly recommend! Thanks Zrinka!!

No value for Money

Zrinka was very helpful to us during our stay and even helped with luggage up the 75 steps to our room. Thanks so much. BUT To get to entrance of old town, there were 399 stairs which there was no way we could walk up so took expensive cab to bottom of 75 stairs which is as far as they could go. View was very nice from main terrace but otherwise, we were disappointed. Our \"studio with terrace\" was very old, drab and crowded. Badly needs an update. We noticed no pics of our room were posted online so we were shocked when we entered. Our terrace overlooked weed filled veggie garden, towels were rough, everything was uncomfortable in the room from sofa to chairs. Patio chairs were ok. I've view other reviews and noticed one saying modern but we did not see any trace of that. I'm sorry to leave this review but feel we look to a review to be honest. The amount per night does not fit or reflect what our room was. Not good value for money. Only poor experience we had on our 40 day European vacation.

The room has a view that is priceless! When I say priceless, I mean you couldn't imagine a better location to sit on a balcony and overlook the Old Town! Cool Sea breeze, shade from the intense sun, etc.

The room is spotless and looks newly renovated. The AC is cold and keeps you comfortable. Your host is so warm and friendly making you feel like you've come home to visit family. She is genuine and authentic through and through.

Now those stairs to get to the room.....you should consider yourself moderately fit in order to run up and down them at least twice a day. Nearly 400 of them each way to and from Old Town which does become a factor going to and from your room. Totally worth the effort in my opinion.

Breathtaking Views and An Amazing Host

We have just come back from a four night stay here. The views of the Old Town/sea are out of this world! The host was amazing - really felt welcome and would go again to the same place - the price was really cheap for such a nice room. I felt safe and the room was clean, tidy and modern. The bathroom was clean and the shower warm! Free WiFi and towels/shampoos etc provided. They even let us borrow beach towels and looked after our case for us until it was time to go for our flight. There are a fair few steps to get up to the property but well worth it for the views alone (most places in this area will require steps so don't let this put you off).

Great View, Drab Room, Hard to Find

We made the mistake of trying to drive to this property, and Google Maps has the address wrong. Be aware that it is even hard to find on foot. The street is a walking street only, and driving around there is challenging. However, this wasn't the fault of the managers, and they were easy to contact and to reach for check in.

The location is very nice, just outside the old town with a great view, but the many stairs (which don't really bother us) could be a challenge for some. The room is sort of drab and outdated and, although clean, needs a lot of updating, especially the bed, bedding, and bathroom fixtures. But if you will be outside exploring most of the day, this won't be too important. The A/C was a little old and noisy.

Not value for money

The ladies who run the B&B are very nice, however we found price didn't match the stay we had. When you first arrive you walk into their home, which is very confusing. We were taking down stairs to the guest room, but again, as this is their home there is random things all over the terrace. The room itself is very small, and the view is completely blocked because they hang up their laundry in front of the window. Checkout is 10am which is on the early side and the apartment is at the top of many, many stairs.
The shower was broken but not attended to. So you have to hold the shower head in your hand the entire time the water is on.

The women are lovely so I'm sure with some adjustments it could be a great place. But we are now staying in the closet to the beach/town for the same price which doesn't really equate.

Hade detta framkommit av beskrivningen av boendet hade vi aldrig någonsin bokat detta ställe. Vill man ha utsikt finns det andra alternativ som linbanan etc. För övrigt mediokert boende, trappor och branta backar till närmsta affär.
