Beautiful old town and waterfront, but as soon as you leave them it becomes a post-Communist dump. I've had very good internet in airbnbs, and it's quite affordable if you live like a local.

Spent 3 weeks in Split during August/September timeframe and stayed on the edge of Old Town. I personally feel that Split would have been best end of September and into October when things calm down a bit. Easy to get around speaking english everywhere, and plenty to do in such a beautiful place. Met a lot of excellent nomads and backpackers while there. Food and Drinks are about standard price for Europe (which apparently is due to inflation and the approaching Euro integration). There are a few coffee shops that have enough space to work from and cowork spaces outside of Old Town which had download speeds ranging from 100mbps (cafe) and up. My apartment was a bit slower at 25-30 download tops, but that was manageable. I could see myself spending much longer in Split, but will say when it comes to knowing the locals and nomads, it feels like a small town very quickly. I will say I agree with a previous reviewer, it is an amazing place to take someone on a date... highly recommend.

Was in Split for September and early october. I went to spend time bouldering over the sea, swimming and having pleasant walks around Marjan Park, which i did. For that it was perfect. The city is also a great place for a nice date and to meet a handful of other nomads. End of summer i feel is probably the best time unless you really want the tourists and the busy nights

Split is a very pleasant town. You have Roman ruins, clear Adriatic waters, ferries to Hvar and other islands. Places to stay are affordable, food is medium priced. English is pretty commonly spoken. You can explore the town in about two days, but it seems a very pleasant place to live (I’ve been here 2 weeks & plan to stay for 2 months).

I spent a month in Split and really enjoyed it. The weather was excellent for 90% of my time there (September) and the city is beautiful, with easy access to much of the Adriatic portion of Croatia and the islands. It's not a huge city, which means that it's very walkable, but I did start getting a little bored and there's not a ton of restaurants that aren't overpriced and touristy. I'd say that it's a great base to explore Croatia, but that if you're planning on staying for more than a month or so it can start to feel a little slow. Also not as cheap as inland Croatia (e.g., Zagreb), but that shouldn't come as a surprise given its location and tourist volume. I had quality wifi in my apartment that was reliable and effective, and in general the city infrastructure is pretty strong. Definitely would recommend, especially during the warmer months.

Split is NOT lgbt friendly, it can be pretty dangerous at times.

Wonderful place, drinking a spritz while sitting on 2000 years olds stones is a wonderful experience.Lot's of tourist, very crowded place in the summer.

Split is extremely affordable for European standards with fast internet and plenty of cafés with wifi. A beautiful coastal city with stunning architecture like Diocletian’s Palace and close proximity to the pine trees of Marjan. Split will suit digital nomads who need fast internet, enjoy different scenery, history, architecture and European culture.
