House Jelena was perfect for our stay at Plitvice Lake. Very modern studio apartment. We totally loved Jelena, who is a lovely host. She shared many tips for visiting Plitvice Lake. Jelena even made coffee for us in the morning and she was very nice with my kids. I highly recommend House Jelena to everyone.

The property was spotless and comfortable and in a lovely setting. We did have to pay in cash upon arrival. It says to pay at the property but we thought we would have a card option. Anyone staying should be aware of this. We were staying at the end of April and unfortunately had bad weather. The hosts were making a fire in their home but the chimney was right at our apartment so we were unable to open any of the windows during our stay. I would recommend this place for a stay but just wanted guests to be aware of what we did not expect.

What I liked the most were the hosts! Great hospitality! The house has quiet surroundings, though it is not far from the main road and all facilities. We spent quite a lot of time relaxing in the garden. The apartment is truly "fully equipped"!

Lovely people, very nice room. Excellent cooking facilities shared with other guests, though we had it to ourselves when we stayed - the other guests ate out. Note that you need a car (or possibly use taxis) to get to Plitvice.

Velice příjemná rodina a ubytování, optimální pro výlet na Plitvice brzo ráno (při příjezdu v 7:00 jsme ve všední den čekali cca 40 minut na koupi vstupenek, později byly fronty výrazně horší). Okolí se nehodí pro cyklistiku, cesty jsou úzké a je jich málo, takže s hustým provozem, někteří řidiči kamionů byli dost bezohlední.
