Reviews of Apartment Gulin
Ivana from Ireland – 2 May 2025 (8/10)
The location is great, and the host is kind. The apartment is close to all the famous sights. The place has a nice terrace.
What could be improved: The bathtub is a bit tricky if you're tall, but we managed 😀Sinclair from United Kingdom – 11 October 2024 (9/10)
Very close to Old Town and local restaurants. Very comfortable bed and a balcony with table and chairs. Kitchen has a gas cooker and large fridge. Bathroom was spotless and the host Zrinka was very helpful.
What could be improved: All good!Markus from Finland – 1 September 2024 (8/10)
Very clean place.
What could be improved: Toilet is very small.Martina from Croatia – 28 August 2024 (9/10)
Apartman izuzetno uredan i čist, a domačica vrlo ljubazna i susretljiva🫶
Nikolina from Croatia – 19 August 2024 (9/10)
The location and the terrace were perfect. The hostess was kind and accommodating.
What could be improved: This has nothing to do with the apartment, it's the way the city just is. There is no nearby practical parking.Marco from United Kingdom – 30 October 2022 (8/10)
We stayed 3 nights in August 2022 in the ground floor apartment. Located in an excellent position, about 15/20 mins’ walk if you come from the bus station (like we did) and less than 10 mins’ walk from the historical centre and the St. Nicholas Fortress. There are a couple of handy small supermarkets just down on the main road..
Clean and furnished with taste and air-conditioned (main living room/kitchen only!); no air con in the bedrooms, but fans are provided. We welcomed the bottle of water and the carton of apple juice we found in the fridge.
Two bedrooms, one with a double bed, the other with two single beds. The beds were comfy.
Spacious and clean bathroom with bidet.
Outdoor front area with table & chairs and clothes hanger and a pergola overflowing with black grapes.
Front garden with a peach tree (among others) with plenty of peaches (when in season, although they had very little taste).
Good safety as you get a key for the apartment and one for the front gate. The area seems overall very safe anyway.
What could be improved: The outside front area is very shady so there is very little natural light coming into the apartment.
If you decide to have your breakfast/meals at the table outside you’ll have to deal with midgets/mosquitoes.
The shower/bathtub curtain is far too short in length and width and should be replaced by a more suitable one.Claire from France – 30 August 2022 (8/10)
Idealement situé,.près du centre et au calme
Josje from Netherlands – 8 August 2022 (8/10)
Zrinka is ernom snel met reageren en super vriendelijk!
What could be improved: Naast schoonmaakmiddelen zou het ook fijn zijn geweest als er bv zonnebloemolie en peper zou zijn geweest.Camille from France – 24 July 2022 (9/10)
une honte très chaleureuse et arrangeante. beaucoup d’espace dans cet appartement et de l’intimité à deux pas du centre historique.
Silvija from Croatia – 15 July 2022 (9/10)
Veliki apartman sa 2 spavače sobe. Čisto i uredno. Domaćica izuzetno ljubazna. Kuhinja dobro opremljena. Terasa sa pogledom na vrt i tvrđavu Sv Mihovila.Sve je bilo odlično. Za svaku pohvalu.
