I stayed in Dubrovnik for one night and I'm glad we chose Guest House Flores. The location could not be much more central with the guest house located right next to the main street of old town.||We weren't greeted by the owner but an extremely friendly and helpful gentleman who explained all the house rules and gave us useful tips for walking in the old town. They don't take credit cards but in addition to local currency you can also pay in euros.||We had a small but cute room in the second floor with separate beds and a shared toilet. Both the room and the toilet were extremely clean and modern. Especially the shower was a positive surprise: there was a regular shower head and also a rain shower. The room had a huge mirror, a small fridge, kettle, ironing board etc. There were aslo slippers and dressing gowns. ||During the day the windows kept out the noise coming from the main walking street. Unfortunately we were staying from Friday till Saturday and in the evening there was some kind of an outdoor club in the square next to the apartment. The bass was very loud in our room and kept us awake for a good while. ||I would recommend this guest house especially if you are not staying long and want to explore the old town as much as possible. The bus stops are also located close, right next to the old town walls. The rooms are very clean and recently renovated and the French countryside type decor is...
Read moreFirst about Parking in dubrovnik, anywhere near the old town the parking costs 40kune per hour or minimum 600 per day. We certainly didnt want to pay that amount of money on parking, so when we arrived and found out about the parking cost, we called the lady for help. She told us to park for one hour first, so we could check in and drop our luggages, then her staff could tell us where cheaper to park. ||That was exactly what we did. We parked in the public parking just outside the old city for one hour. When we arrived at the Aptmt (after going down many steps ), a nice young man showed us the aptmt, explained where and what to do, and then told us we could park at a garage at Hotel Argentina for 120kune daily rate. That was so helpful and saved us a lot of money on parking alone. However, just be prepared to walk about ten minutes from garage to town and back to retrieve car, but there is a best view of old town on the way. |Aptmt itself is perfectly located, right on the main square, easy access to everywhere. Aptmt is big clean with a well equipped kitchen. Shower is very powerful. |Only problem is the noise at night where there is loud music and people coming and going, but this is no fault of the Aptmt.||Just outside the Aptmt, there is a nice little restaurant. Try their...
Read moreStayed five nights at Quest House Flores, read the reviews of fellow travellers and watched fancy photos at booking.com before booking the room which was supposed to be "fabulous", "spacious"," perfect". The room we got wasn't all of that but expensive, noisy,smelly and the tiniest of tiny it was. The problem with these reviews is that at GHF there are several kinds of rooms and you can't know what to get. Well, the location was good, in the heart of Old Town BUT the noise from Stradun (the main street) kept you awake all night. First the music and people and from 5a.m the rattle of pulling rubbish containers along the street. The room was nicely furnished, clean and the bed comfy BUT it was the smallest one I have ever stayed in when travelling. The bathroom was clean and modern BUT the smell from sewage system was hideous. The owner was helpful and kind,yes, the short moment we saw her BUT I suppose it's the basic requirement. I'm merely disappointed at the fact that my expectations didn't meet with the reality. This room is OK if you stay one or two nights but for a longer stay I wouldn't...
