Historic Plaza Varos Hotel in Split

The hotel is very conveniently located for visiting Diocletian's palace and the lovely seafront promenade. It is an old converted building as are all of the hotels in this area. This might account for the rather musty smell in our room. It is in a pedestrianised zone which meant using Google maps to find our way from the taxi drop off. We arrived in the evening and had to call for someone to come to let us in. There is no 24 hour reception. The power socket and light switches on one side of the bed did not work. The safety deposit box did not work. We spoke to one of the girls at breakfast who tried changing the batteries. This did not work so she gave us a key. This worked intermittently so we carried our passports, cards and cash with us. The tv had no connection. The same girl said that she would call someone who would deal with this. We saw her preparing another room at lunchtime and she said that she would call again. It was still not working that evening so we tried calling the number given but there was no answer. We spoke to her again the following morning. We never did see the tv working.
