Great location. Nice owner. He even brought me oranges from his garden! I had hot water when I took my showers at night. I would recommend this place.

Hostel is excellent base for the old town, and easy bus ride from the bus station (ticket is valid for 1 hour when first used). Showers were hot on both occasions. Room was clean but could hear people in neighbouring room talking. Host was lovely, especially sampling the drink his wife makes!

Excellent location being within the old town. Bathroom was tiny but we found it extremely clean and the owners were very friendly and welcoming.

A good place to stay in a central location. Rooms are small but comfortable. Bathroom & toilet was not cleaned & no hot water.

Owners were very sweet. space was pretty private. Room was small, but served our purpose. Location was perfect, right in the center of everything, inside the city walls right inside the Pile Gate.

The location couldn't have been better! Just inside the main gate into the Old City. 2 cold showers in a row was a bummer and the rooms and bathroom were all quite claustrophobia-inducing but for I'd stay there again anyway because of the prime location.

Location very central, old mate leaves you alone to do your own thing and you can enter and exit when you want. No entertainment as a guesthouse and rooms very small but this is fine when you consider the kick-ass location

It's in the center of the town, but the toilets and the rooms are very dirty... If you stay only one day, you is a good place

Great place to stay in Dubrovnik. Well-priced, centrally located in the third street to the left off the main street in old town, a house that's been in the family for 300 years, next door to a great and affordable seafood restaurant, clean, key to the front door and the room. A+, completely...

The owners were amazing and made me and my friend feel more than welcome. The location is the best for any hostel i have ever stayed in as it is right in the centre of Dubrovnik. I would highly recommend Petra Guesthouse to anyone!

Excellent location right in the middle of the old city. Owner very friendly and let us leave our luggage there on our last day. Slightly concerned when we found a scorpion in the bathroom but other than that was a good place to stay for the one night we were there.

The accommodation is right in the centre of the Old Town, just off Placa, and amazing value for money. No more staying out of town in Gruz for twice the price! The room was small but comfortable. There are no lockers but the private room has its own key. And the hosts are very friendly and nice....

The hostel has the best location and price but cleanliness has to be improved. We understand that the guesthouse is in a 300 years old building and that the facilities are not going to be ideal because of that (e.g. stairs, furniture, bath...). However, the house could be cleaner. For instance,... more The hostel has the best location and price but cleanliness has to be improved. We understand that the guesthouse is in a 300 years old building and that the facilities are not going to be ideal because of that (e.g. stairs, furniture, bath...). However, the house could be cleaner. For instance, as there was only a shared bath for all rooms, it should be cleaned in depth more often, we even found a scorpion alive behind the door. Besides, the whole house smelled bad the two days we stayed.close

Very nice location, bit annoying having the tiny bathroom and not much bigger shower room on a different floor to the bedrooms. The room however was very clean and comfortable. The owner also let us borrow his Lonely Planet Guide to Dubrovnik while we were there, which was very kind of him.

Really good hostel with a great location. It is located within the city walls. The only problem was that it was noisy outside at night with the tourists yelling. Staff was very nice.

A tiny, but adequate room, for an amazing price, and just off the Stradun makes it a perfect location. So easy to find, really friendly owners. Basic, but pleasant.

Nice location in old town, but no sign, so make sure you have the address. The family lives upstairs, but you'll barely see them (we saw them for a total of 5 minutes in 2 days; just when we arrived and when we paid). Rooms are small, but it's only an issue if you have a ton of luggage. Walls... more Nice location in old town, but no sign, so make sure you have the address.

Overall, though it was a good deal, and would just return with earplugs.close

A great place to stay if you are looking for a place close to the action, and a comfortable bed to fall into at night. Perfect for couples traveling on a budget. Hosts were very nice.

The location was great and the host was very nice. The room was small, but definitely sufficient for our needs. The drawbacks were that it was very noisy at night and there were a lot of mosquitos in our room. And the shared shower did not drain very well.
