Manos' place is great , he's built it himself and it's homely and quirky and all around a great place to stay ! The terrace is twice nice in real life as it is on the photos (and the photos make it look amazing) and we had some lush meals up there in the evening and lounged in the sun with breakfast in the morning . Manos is an ace host , kind enough to help us out with later check ins and was so quick to reply with any queries or lend a hand where he could. As well as suggesting great local spots for food and showing us what the city had to offer . If you're going to stay in Heraklion definitely would reccomend here , it's been such an ace and relaxing week and the fact we stayed in this house made it so much better. Close to local shops and bus stops and easy to navigate from the town. Can't reccomend it enough !! Cheers Manos
