Initially rang the affiliated hostel. They did not have single rooms available, but they had rooms available 2 minutes away at the owners mothers guest house which were linked. The owner was really lovely and gave us directions there when we got lost.||||The guest house was actually the mothers house. We shared her large bathroom but we have no idea where the kitchen was because that part of the house was blocked off and private. ||||She wrote the price down but, when I asked to keep a copy (it was late and inknew i would not remeber the figure) she said nah, you don't need one. Pay whenever you can. I didn't know how much to get out the bank tho.||||I saw her putting on a load of washing that night and was interested. She asked if i needed any thing clean. I said, I might wash tomorrow, could u please show me how it works. "NO". It's too expensive so you have to pay me to wash your clothes (7 kuna- whichc is nothing, I just wanted the independence And to know my clothes aren't take / damaged) :S||||I washed my delicates secretly and hung them in my room but did need some necessities washed. As ordered, I put them in a bag by the bathroom in the morning. That night at 11pm they we just starting to be washed!!! I had to leave early the next morning and all my pajamas etc were in the wash so I didn't have much to sleep in. ||||The next morning (half an hour before leaving, I found a neatly folded pile of DAMP clothes. So much for electricity, I had the hair dryer on for a almost an hour trying to dry them before I had to pack them. they are now draped around my train compartment trying to dry.||||||Oh and our accommodation was 3 times more expensive...
Read moreWe stayed here as a base camp for two nights. We arrived at 5pm after a long coach ride. The email from the host included all necessary information/directions and we found our way easily. The location is a short walk away from the station/port and just to the east of the city walls next to a big food market.||||The door is a bit secluded and if locked, use the button that says 'bulovic'. Our host was a friendly, bubbly and personable lady. The guesthouse is part her home but we didn't see much of each other. The rooms are secure, clean and private. There is a large well equipped bathroom. ||||Bizarrely, some of the other local women around the guesthouse made some unusual comments in croatian at various points when we were coming/going but they are harmless enough. ||||Overall we had a good stay and were made to feel welcome and comfortable. It is also well worth noting that there is aircon and we had a great sleep both nights. Would recommend if you want a good value base from which to explore the beautiful old town of split. We paid just under 150 kunas...
Read moreI recently stayed at the Guesthouse Bulovic in Split. Our room was large, clean and comfortable with the added bonus of free wi-fi. The guest house is centrally located, only a few minutes walk from the train/ferry/bus stations and the old town of Split. It can be a bit tricky to find as there is no sign to indicate there is a guesthouse, so ask for directions if you haven't already got them!||||We arrived in Split at 7am and were lucky enough to be allowed to check in that early as the room was free. There is a shared bathroom (which is very clean), but there were no queues in the morning! The guesthouse is just off a busy road and near a bus stop, so the traffic noise was noticeable in our room with the window open. The apartment is also at the top of the building, so you need to lug your luggage up a few flights of stairs.||||Overall, we had a great stay - the guesthouse is clean and comfortable in a great location and I couldn't ask for anything more for the...
