We stayed there a couple of nights because we had no other choice. Given the much lower quality of service, the rooms are not cheap enough. Walls are paper thin, you basically hear everybody passing in the corridor. The sink in our room was falling down and the bathroom door hardly closed. We could not use the shower hose to... More

We only had breakfast here, but the service was poor and the food mediocre. The quality and quantity is not in line with restaurants in the neighbourhood....Too bad with such a fantastic location they could have made much more of the place!

Staying in Rovic's pension was a disaster. First, the room smelled of poop in the morning, which we don't know why. The room was so small that the room door could only be opened about 1/4 of the way because of one bed is stuck in the doorway. The sheets smelled of we don't know what but was bearable I... More

Oh Rovic's, Rovic's Rovic's. We stayed three nights with you, I'm so sorry but they were just terrible. The walls were not sound proof, so we heard everything! from the people next door, the tricycle in the street and the people walking in the corridors! In fact, they all sounded as if they were in the room with us. We... More

we stayed there and the rooms had no daylight. as there was no electricity between 6am and 2pm they had one lightbulb in the room, supplied by the generator, but no light inside the bathrooms without a window. we had to keep the bathroom door open to operate inside the bathroom. Further, the top linen was clean but as soon... More

We spent 4 days at Rovic's Pension House and we were really surprised by the staff. They were really friendly and helpful, arranged our room even if we didn't book in advance and even found us a personal boat to plan a trip on an incredible beach to enjoy sunset. Rooms are comfortable but bit small and walls are thin.
