The location is excellent! Safe and comfortable, and the staff are very welcoming. However, I should suggest that people smoking on the balcony close the door, otherwise the smoke will drift into the kitchen. Also, the sofa covers in the living room are quite greasy and should be washed.

Great place in the middle of old town. I found the clothes steamer in the room very useful. Comfy bed and clean interiors. Breakfast was decent.

The room was stunning and very clean. We were fortunate to have the room with a south facing balcony, which was a heat trap. It is situated in a very central area with lots of shops, bars, and restaurants near by. The things which let the room down was the bang average speed WiFi, that once several folk throughout the hotel were on went pretty slow, which is sometimes the case. The TV brand is Grundig, which I never heard of and is not got any smart settings. There is an option to project your phone/ipad to it. The only issue is if the Internet is slow then it sometimes won't recognise... Get new TVs! Communication could be improved, the gentlemen who checked us in said to contact him with any queries, I did so and had no reply. They could do with a system to drop off used towels and collect new clean towels from the reception area of the hotel. Hopefully this constructive feedback will be acted on as it is minors things as mentioned above that are lowering the overall experience for fellow guests.

This house is good, but the location is very random. If you set a good location, you have a good view. Hotel facilities are OK, the things provided are very complete

Located in the heart of split and easy access to everything. The room is huge and spacious with great decoration. There is a restaurant next to the hotel and it's not that noisy after 9p.m. About 15 mins walk to the bus station. Highly recommend for this hotel.

The Hotel is nice, clean, and comfortable. The staff were very helpful. I enjoyed the homey atmosphere. However, there are a few things one should be aware of before booking: The hotel is in the historic district just about 5 min walk west from the Prominade area. Taxis cannot drive in, so it is necessary to walk in with one's baggage. Also, any excursions will start with a walk out of the area to the main taxi stand. Navigating the area can be a challenge the first couple of times; one MUST have the ability to use their maps app. T-mobile - America has an international plan that give you up to 2G speed unlimited data and texting, but I highly recommend getting a local sim card. Look at the map of the city before choosing this hotel. There are a lot of nice restaurants within 2-5 minutes walking. Furthermore, the office closes from 11pm till 7am. Most importantly, they DO NOT take credit cards. IF you did not pay for the room online, you will need local cash, and you will need it to pay the taxes on the room, and for a taxi if you booked it through the hotel. Cash only. (They do have a zelle option, but I could not get it to work. I recommend cash. Speaking of cash, one should get it from an actual bank ATM as the rates 11% vs the 22-25% some private ATMs charge.) I give the hotel 4 of 5 for comfort, 5/5 for cleanliness, 3 or 5 for location. I'd give this hotel

Хорошее место где остановиться, если не хочется сильно тратиться. Прежде всего это общежитие студентов, так что каждый день убираться и приносить мыло/ шампунь тут не будут, меняют полотенце и выкидывают мусор каждые 3 дня. Проблем с жарой не было - есть исправный кондиционер, также не было неприятных запахов, есть стол для работы. Рядом есть Tommy чтобы закупиться продуктами, где-то на этажах есть кухня и рабочие комнаты. Wifi хороший, быстрый . Плюсы: - цена - чистота и исправность всего - рядом магазины/ ресторан/ автобусные остановки Минусы: - далеко от туристического места и моря ( 30 минут пешком, много подъемов на обратном пути ) - в здании находится restorante kampus, где по вечерам и ночам все выходные ( пятница, суббота) играет громкая музыка и орут местные хорваты, слышно даже с закрытыми окнами, спать в выходные очень тяжело, шумно вплоть до 4 утра .

Excellent stay at Prima Luce. The room was very clean and very comfortable, the Air Conditioning was excellent. Note that on certain nights, there is a nightclub in the same building which does tend to make some noise as you can hear a bit of the thumping of the music. The location was amazing as you are right beside the old Roman walls, restaurants, bars, nightlife, shopping and very close to the beautiful ”Riva” marina. Beaches are a short uber or cab ride away, they are very close. Very comfortable stay and excellent service from hotel staff.
