This is a brilliant base to have, to visit Crete in whatever speed you like.
Although the street down below is noisy , it's not all that bad.
Couple of very cost effective restaurants within a minute's walk from the property.
You can reach the place easily from the airport by bus too, if you don't mind a 15 minute walk from the bus station to the apartment.
The balcony was a nice place to chill out and people watch.
Giorgios' Mom Elisabeth is so sweet and not only showed us the apartment and the facilities, she even gave us a local drink called Rakomelo with a couple of pastries that she'd made - made our day and made us feel right at home !
Will definitely recommend and consider coming back.
