Сплит-Далмация, Хорватия: Хоумстей

Общая обстановка

Pro - very close to the Golden Gate and is easy to find. Check in is straightforward. The room is on the first floor above ground so it wasn't the most difficult thing to lift our luggages up. Con - (1) the actual room looks nothing like the pictures online. The online pictures (taken with wide lens mode) show the room to be much larger and brighter, whereas the room is in fact very small and relatively poorly lit. For one, the bed is literally two footsteps away from the door, and we were struggling to find space to open our luggages. (2) One of the beds in the room is in fact a sofa bed, but the property did not declare this when we booked. We spent a lot of time trying to book places which do not use sofa beds but actual beds, and so we can't help but feel that we were misled and misrepresented to. (3) There is a bit of noise. The property is right next to the road and near a pub with some rowdy youths at times. (4) Facilities are minimal. There is only one chair, and the table is very small. Everything else is basic. Nothing luxurious about it despite its name and the photos. (5) There is no lift at the property. We would not have chosen this property if we had a second chance.

Путешествие в Хорватию, о котором я давно мечтала. Всё началось в Сплите. Как только я забронировала жилье, наша переписка всегда была доброй и теплой. Когда я попросила трансфер из аэропорта, меня встретил мистер Марко, и он был очень любезен и внимателен. Жилье тоже было безупречным. В номере была красивая комната и чистая ванная. Хотя оно расположено в жилом районе в стороне от главной дороги, оно находится недалеко от туристических достопримечательностей, что делает передвижение пешком очень удобным. Мне было так грустно, что я осталась всего на один день, и когда я выехала на следующий день, отец Марко ждал меня и помог донести мой тяжелый чемодан. Это действительно прекрасная семья. Если я когда-нибудь снова приеду в Сплит, я с удовольствием остановлюсь в этом жилье. Благодаря им мои воспоминания о Сплите стали еще приятнее. Желаю дому Сандры всего наилучшего!

This was a rushed booking due to our original hotel not having our booking. Normally I spend considerable time going through reviews etc, but with the Azur Palace (hotel?) it was a case of needs must. Unfortunately although we had booked a deluxe double in our opinion it didn’t match similar 4 star hotel deluxe rooms. I mentioned this to reception but they weren’t really interested. Appreciate we were virtually in the centre of split, with space at a premium, but the view of a small alley with graffiti an empty minibar, not even plugged in, an irritating dim light, I think from the a/c that ensured the room wasn’t completely dark. After trying to close it down without success I went to reception, which had a note with a phone number to call. I gave up went back to the room and tried throwing a towel over it. Also no bar, although there are a few within couple of minutes. Overall disappointing.

I really enjoy staying here. The location is perfect for me. As a big beach person, the hotel is close to Bacvice Beach, it’s like a 8-minute walk. And it’s like 13-minute walk to Diocletian's Palace and the pier for my boat trip. The owner also recommended some good restaurants for us to explore and asked us constantly if we need suggestions to do in Split. They are really helpful!! The room is also really clean and I love the fact that many towels are provided in the room. Also, when I had told the owner we would check out at 10am the day before check out, my friend suddenly had a diarrhea and puked in the morning, the owner was so nice that allowed us to check out at 11am instead!
