This apartment was in a great location, walking distance from Khandakos street which leads to the lively and attractive main square in Heraklion's old town and the delightful El Greco Park. I strongly recommend this area for shopping and lovely iced coffees and delicious food.

The apartment looked just like its photos, and my kids were happy to borrow scooters, while my husband and I used a few of the available oils and spices -- this is a very homely apartment and the kitchen is nice to cook in. We hadn't realized there was a rooftop area, which was great to sit in when the city and apartment got too hot to do very much!

Communication could have been a bit better -- on arrival, we didn't know where to go, so I'd recommend that future guests head for the Natural History Museum and ring from there, as it's close by. Eirini's father Vagelis was extremely welcoming when we did manage to get hold of him. Overall, we had a lovely stay in Heraklion.
