Skalina

We enjoyed the harbor and sunrise views from the rooftop terrace, where there's also a barbecue. The house is narrow and has four floors, with three bedrooms, two large bathrooms, a living room, and a fully equipped kitchen. The rooms were clean, and towels and toiletries were supplied. There's a bus stop right outside and plenty of parking close by. A small market and bakery are just to the left, while cafes, bars, and restaurants line the waterfront promenade to the right.

We really enjoyed our stay and would come back. We found the house on Booking.com, and communication was only through messages in the booking app, but everyone was kept informed promptly. There are plenty of nearby shops and restaurants, with more within walking distance. A bus stop and free public parking are right outside. The house itself has a small ground-floor living room with a sofa, TV, and books, plus a well equipped kitchen with a coffee maker, kettle, and more. There's a toilet just outside the kitchen. The stone stairs are a little worn. On the first floor there's a double bedroom with air conditioning and a wardrobe, and a large bathroom with a tub, shower, and double sink. Towels, shampoo, shower gel, sunscreen, and a hairdryer were provided. The second floor has two more bedrooms, one double and one with bunk beds. Up on the third floor there's another bathroom with a shower, sink, washing machine, and fridge, along with a rooftop terrace and barbecue. The view was fantastic, and we watched the sunrise around 6:30 every morning. The house is spread over a lot of floors, so it may not suit anyone who has trouble with stairs. Noise was the other drawback: pedestrians, buses, cars, scooters, horns, garbage trucks, and church bells made it almost never quiet, day or night.

The house sits in a central spot, with a bus stop and a few parking spaces out front. From the upper terrace you can see the whole harbor basin. The rooms are simply furnished, the beds feel a bit dated, and the house has four floors. In summer, a very loud street festival goes on until well after midnight. You can't sleep, and you can't even drive into the city center. We hadn't known about it before arriving, and would have picked somewhere else if we had. I'd advise checking whether the festival is happening before booking.

The house is in a lovely spot, with the bus stop right outside. Restaurants and supermarkets are an easy walk away.
