- The place was very damp so we never got comfortable.
- Outdated facilities and a lot of things were out of order (e.g. the remote for the air conditioning/ heating unit, one of the air conditioner, etc.)
- Probably a lot of hotels/ apartments in Dubrovnik are the same, but so many stairs to climb, and problematic with luggage. (No help was provided)
- Didn't realise how little contact/help would be provided. (In Split, we stayed in a similar settings where the owner had the apartments as a secondary source of income, however he met and greet us from where our taxi dropped us off, and carried our luggage and checked us in and out in person.)
- on the day of checkout, all electricity and water got cut off about 10 minutes prior to the checkout end time. (Not sure if it's a standard for Dubrovnik, but certainly not a greatest thing to experience - made us feel like rushed out the door as money making has been completed.)
- we left our luggage in the hallway (we learnt that there's no secure storage only one we got there) as our bus was in the late afternoon. The front door key was changed and there was no reception obviously and the owner was uncontactable. Luckily after 10-20 minutes of banging the door for help, one of the guests heard us and let us in to collect our bags. We almost missed our bus, and that could have had a huge impact to our plan (we would have missed correcting flights next day, etc.).
