This is a very old and quite beautiful court! There is a lot of construction after the earthquake. Right after they finished repairs out after the previous, there was another two years ago, again damaging the cathedral and many more buildings.
I stayed at the Dubrovnik Hotel right on the town square, right in the middle of town. It was the only hotel I saw near the center of town.
There are more cafes and every kind of food you could ever imagine!
I also got a Thai massage for €50, or I should say several! At first I thought it was a shady kind of massage but it was completely legitimate and very clean.
Everything in the downtown area is expensive compared to outlying area, but nothing that was outrageous. Enjoy your stay! I’m coming back one day!
I am 6’2” or 188cm. I was literally dwarfed by the 16-30 age group! Even be many of the women! I researched this to see if it was an anomaly. It was not. They carry a gene from 30,000 years ago and make creations on the Dalmatian coast the tallest people in the world! The average male height for 18-30 years there is 185cm (6’0")! AVERAGE!!!
And everyone i spoke with was very friendly and very helpful!
And for you Americans, nearly everybody speaks, or at least understands English.
