I stayed Easter week, and Jelena was so lovely and helpful, she met me on arrival from my airport transfer at the Pile gate (organised by the apartments). Jelena went out of her way to make sure everything was OK, checking in on me as a solo traveller every few days. Her boss needs to give her a raise, as she keeps the apartments immaculate.

Central location for Lapad with bars and restaurants 2 min walk away. Ideal for buses to Old Town, again a short walk around the corner. Apartment was perfect for us, very clean and nice big balcony. WiFi didn’t work on balcony or in the 2nd bedroom but we had signal problems the whole visit wherever we went. Would highly recommend this apartment

This is an excellent property in the middle of the old town. Despite being next to various bars and restaurants it was quite quiet, although it was usually busy outside in the daytime. Air conditioning was great.

The property is in an excellent location right in the heart of the old town and it was maintained to the highest level (just as you see them in the photos). It truly felt like a luxurious room/suite and the only thing about it that you could comment on was that the aircon made a bit of a strange noise but other than that it was pretty perfect. Whilst it didn't affect us, the building in which we stayed doesn't have a lift. Would stay again.

Staff was professional and attentive. Room and amenities are top-notch. Breakfast was sufficient and varied. We loved it!
