We had a nice room with a balcony that has a nice view of the harbor. Ante was helping us with information, gave us a map with the most important places and routes marked, recommended places to eat and go out: all you need to get around :) He drove us one morning to the hills near the city to see the most amazing view of Dubrovnik. We could pick and eat the fruits from the back yard of the guest house. I warmly recommend it to anyone.close

This was the best place I have ever stayed at. He took us around the city, gave us a tour, offered all the help in the world. I would recommend anyone to stay here. It also has a beautiful view. Let us eat tangerines and grapes from the yard...I LOVE THIS PLACE

Loved every minute. Book this place! Quick bus ride into the old town too!close

We loved our stay here. It was super friendly and clean and really well equipped. It is outside of the old town which we liked as its good to get away from all the tourists and its easy to get the bus or walk in. Absolutely no complaints

This place was fantastic. Cross between apartment and hostel - a few other people to meet, but not too many people sharing the kitchen and bathroom! Plus the owner was amazing - picked us up, told us where to go, and drove us up to the fort looking over the city. What more could you want?

Dubrovnik is quite expensive and if you are looking for something well connected to the center by bus 8, unexpensive and clean, this is your choice. Thank you Ante and your family for your hospitality and help. Recommended 100%.

I think I have made a good choice of living in the Gruz area rather than the old town. The room and the washroom are really really clean. Mr. and Mrs. Ante are so helpful and nice. All his recommendations about restaurants are excellent. Mrs Ante also helped ordering excellent pizza for us. About the location, it took just 5 minutes from the hostel to the old town by bus no.8. In return, get off at the 3rd bus stop once you saw the biggest Konsum (the supermarket). Then, took a few steps and you'll see the hostel. Remember to call Mr. Ante right after you arrive at the main bus station, he'll come and pick you up. Otherwise, you'll be just as stupid as me, walking up the hill with a 16kg backpack...well, it's me that who haven't read Mr. Ante's email as he reminded me once to call him upon arrival. Anyway, I strongly recommend you to stay in this hostel if you come to Dubrovnik.close
