The property is spacious, well-furnished/equipped, clean, updated, and gorgeous! It is steps away from everything in the old town- bars, shops, groceries, restaurants, the main gate, the pier...everything. The host was terrific to work with and arranged for airport pick-up for my family. They also met us at the main gate and escorted us to the property. I would stay here again! ##### Amy P.

Terrific location. The property is exactly represented in the listing: simply lovely. Very well setup with furnishings and utensils. One minuscule complaint: lack of salt and pepper. If that is the only negative I can site, this is a really great property. ##### KATHLEEN C.

We loved the location and it was clean and well-appointed. Our only disappointment was that we received only one set of keys for our stay and was promised a second set would be delivered. That never occurred so we had to carefully plan our activities to be sure that someone was not locked in or locked out of the apartment. ##### David F.

Property very clean and had all the necessary amenities. Located in the heart of the Old Town we had walking access to so many restaurants, bakeries, coffee shops... We did many tours outside the walls and it was very easy for tour guides and Ubers to pick up right at Pile Gate (just outside of Old Town walls). I'd highly recommend this property! ##### Tami M.

We loved Dubrovnik and being so central to everything it was amazing. Easy walk to a café, a bakery, a simple market, a wine shop, and many restaurants in the harbor itself. Dubrovnik has areas with many stairs/steps and this property is in the flat part of town, close to the main gate. I can’t overemphasize how central it is. It is in the second floor, and then has three levels, but this didn’t bother us, just be aware of this. The owner and the manager were both very responsive - don’t hesitate to stay here. Lovely property and lovely city. Hvala!!! ##### Tibbits , Jonell T.

The hosts were very helpful and attentive, arranging transportation from the ferry and meeting us at gate to Old Town to help with luggage. (A big bonus: no stairs to house! It’s in a great location.) Hosts also gave helpful tips about things to do and see, and arranged a car for a day trip to Montenegro. It was unseasonably hot during our May trip, up to 90 degrees Fahrenheit, so the AC was much appreciated. I highly recommend Poet’s House for your Dubrovnik vacation! ##### Julie W.

Great communication with the owner. We would highly recommend. ##### Ronnie B. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2021 ---
