The place is really hard to find. We arranged our pick up from the airport with the property manager, and the driver told us that the manager was in front of city gate. Didn’t happen. After 30 minutes wondering around with suitcases, we found the property (thanks to a local tourist guide).

We are sorry for your search, but check-in is always at the adress and the driver shouldn't confirm that we'll be waitting for you because that is imposible. Anyway, we are glad you enjoy in Split

Great location but you are on your own to find it
If you can get past the difficulty communicating with manager and finding the place, once you're in it's not bad. AC works great, Wi-Fi works great. Location could be better just a few steps to the main Piazza historic Center. Just make sure you know exactly how to find the place before head. Do not expect to be able to rely on manager for help, directions, information, responses...

Worst Stay ever
Only plus for Cecilia is it's location. Worst and costliest hotel in our 23 days Europe trip. The details given on the site and actuality is totally different. I would not recommend this property to anyone. The toilet is very small and dirty. No housekeeping in three nights of our stay. No toiletries. No Wi-Fi as well.

Studio apartment within the walls of the Palace
The room was a nicely decorated studio within the walls of the Palace. The walls of the kitchen were over a meter thick. It was amazing to stay inside of the walls in a piece of history, 1700 years old. It is not often that you get to stay in a place like this. We consider ourselves very fortunate to ache found this listing.

A Nice Overnighter
We had a strange schedule and weren't sure what time we would arrive at the place so the manager accommodated us effectively. The room was nice and well appointed. The bathroom was new and perfectly fine. A nice stay. Grateful for air conditioning.

The place is not very easy to find,and you need to contact the owner on the phone as there is no reception. I was pleasantly surprised by the room with its own kitchen , which is well equipped but its basic not luxury , fine for the price and very well located to the centre of the old town.

Worst accommodation ever! do not stay here!
This is the worst booking i have ever made!! The double room is tiny, bed against the wall and no room for luggage. Even though it advertises stove top and kitchen it only has a small, non functioning fridge and kettle (hotels.com please do something about this as this is false advertising!) We were given one towel for two people and the room wasn't cleaned in the 5 days we were there. Worst of all is the service, we only saw one person from staff while we there and he didn't seem to know what he was doing. When I tried to deal with the staff over the phone they were terribly rude and unhelpful, I was even hung up on! Do yourself a favor and DO NOT book here, it just isn't worth it even if it's cheap. There is so much accommodation in Split, find something else, these people do not deserve any business.

Apartment
A nice little apartment within the Diocletian Palace. It was not easy to find and as it is an apartment there is no reception desk. Had to get the Tourist Information to ring and arrange a time to pick up the key. Need more information about this on web-site. Once we found it, it was great.

Fine for an overnight stay
We pre-arranged transport through the Apartment Cecilia, and the driver was waiting for us at the airport, was pleasant with good command of English. Because there is no way to drive to apartment Cecilia, he dropped us off at the taxi area in town, having phoned and alerted someone of our arrival. The lady who met us was rather brusque, and set off at a pace which we found we needed to almost run, with all our luggage. Our room was very small and we were initially disappointed, but everywhere was spotlessly clean, and the kingsized bed was extremely comfortable. The shower was efficient, so overall, for a cheap one night stay, the apartment served it's purpose, and was nicely centrally located.

Its not a hotel at all! Read this review!
This is not a hotel! NO service, NO doorlock, NO full-body towels! Water heater in shower is NOT automatic, you're supposed to figure out to turn on the switch and let it heat for a few hours before; NO wifi unless you specifically ask where to find the network key and password. In fact, this is just a couple of apartments in a building with other locals, so it is not advertised as a hotel anywhere, making it very difficult to find. Once you're there, you HAVE to call the number listed in the hotel description and try to get a hold of someone who can let you in. In my case, it was the cleaning lady,who spoke ZERO english, after i had spent over 15 euros calling internationally to this "owner" . I stayed for 3 nights, there was NO cleaning service whatsoever. So, to summarize, DO NOT STAY HERE. Yes, the location is great and the room itself is ok, but there is so much accommodation being offered in Split that this is simply NOT worth the amount of money they are asking, you can stay for a third of it somewhere nicer with REAL reception!

Great location
The room is very well located - at the heart of the old town, few meters to the Dioclitian Palace, i highly recommended it for a short stay and if you don't spend too much time in the room. Otherwise, the room we were provided was very small, just the space for a double bed and the bathroom was like a closet but it was clean.

We booked and paid for this room 2 months ago. When we arrived at Split it took us a long time to find this place as google maps didn't match the exact locations and it was in a very tiny side street. When we eventually found the place and there was no one there to let us in. The helpful locals called the number and we were told that our apartment was double booked. We had to find new accommodation at 10pm at night after a long flight. They didn't care that we paid or that they double booked. It was our problem. Thankfully the Croatian people are so friendly and helped us find alternate accommodation so late a night. If you don't want to ruin your holiday then choose another apartment.

Superb location
These apartments are very difficult to find. They are located just inside the Silver Gate between the hotel Peristil and the cafe next door. It is a narrow alley and the gate has number 4 on it but the name Cecilia does not appear. You are also likely to have to telephone on arrival because there is no one there. The apartments are close to the market and restaurants, the harbour and bus station.

Great.location
Very quaint hotel right in the heart of the Dalmatian Palace. It is very difficult to find but many others seemed that way. Don't be shy to ask as everyone in Croatia is very kind and friendly. There are only a few apartments and all come with a kitchen so you can make a coffee and have a light breakfast and snacks in the evening. It is very clean and cosy. It i s more like an apartment which is very common to rent/book in Croatia.

Good value room in excellent location
The studio room was small and basic but clean and in an excellent position to explore Split. Importantly it was close to both the harbour (five minutes walk) for our arrrival and the airport bus for our return to the UK. It was not easy to find but the tourist information is very close and they directed us to it. There was little noise at night to disturb us and overall was good value - although it would have been a littel too basic for us for a longer stay.

Great location. Hard to find and basic
It was a great location once found! Luckily we had a good taxi driver that dropped us nearby but also lucky to stumble across a local who pointed us in the right direction otherwise it would have been tough. In saying that the room was a decent size with kitchen and ensuite and a perfect location in the old town. Only downside was that we didn't have air con!

Only for the location
Can't fault the location; in the old city and convenient for the shops, ferries and buses. However, the service was non-existent. We collected the keys from the owner / receptionist and that was the last we saw of her. She told us she forgot about our booking and we didn't realise until later that we'd been given a smaller room than what we had booked. The room was not cleaned, we had to take our rubbish out with us and even had to buy our own toilet paper, and the internet stopped working after 2 days. Would not recommend this place - there are plenty of others inside the old city to choose from.

Appartement in centrum Split
Ligt schitterend in het centrum van de oude stadskern vlakbij de Riva boulevard. Vanuit het appartement directe toegang tot het levendige oude stadsgedeelte. ca. 10 minuten lopen naar de shuttle opstapplek bij de haven voor de shuttle naar het vliegveld. Transavia vlucht was prettig en vlot (ca. 2 uur vanaf Rotterdam). Quick parking een goede oplossing voor het parkeren van de auto. Met een busje naar Rotterdam vliegveld gebracht (ca. 10 minuten rit). Na afloop snelle ophaalservice terug naar de auto.

alles was man bracuht
Das Appartment ist mitten in der historischen Altstadt gelegen. Die Anreise funktionierte problemlos. Ein kurzer Anruf beim Vermieter und 10 Min. später kommt eine freundliche Mitarbeiterin und erklärt alles. Das Zimmer war ausreichend groß, sauber und das Bad frisch renoviert mit großer Dusche. eine Küche steht allen Appartment-nutzern (in unserem Fall 4 Appartments) gemeinsam zur Verfügung. Am Abreisetag hat uns die Vermietung sogar ermöglicht erst 14 Uhr aus zu checken. Für unkomplizierte reisende, die auf Halbpension verzichten können (Restaurants, Bars, Cafes, etc. befinden sich direkt vor der Tür) ein absoluter Tipp!

Never had such an unpleasant stay like this
Never had such an unpleasant stay like this. People should make a call the owner before their arrival, but I've never been informed about it in advance. So, I had to wait for 30 minutes in front of the locked door and there was no bell. They should send a pre-notice by e-mail for the guests. Also, they made a mistake on the date of my reseravtion, so I had to wait one hour more in the rain. They didn't say even "sorry" to me. Said only it was a technical problem. Ha! And in the room, there was a bunch of ants on the wall, on the bathroom, on the floor. I was so afraid of bug-bites. The location was only thing that I was satisfied with, but please find the other place for your safe trip. It was an such unpleasant stay ever.

Litet rum
Ingen kontakt innan vi skulle checka in utan vi fick gå till den lokala frisersalongen och fråga hur man kom in genom den låsta grinden. Frisörene ringed någon och vi fick besked på att uthyraren skickade sin son som skulle öppna för oss. Litet men mysigt rum men inte så mycket plats för packning.
