The apartment is very well situated (a five to ten minutes drive to Rethymno), and just outside the hotels and touristic area, so it is a quiet place. It is also well equipped and very functional. Rethymno is full of drinking and eating places in the old town (near the port) that are nice. Alexis is very friendly and full of advices about the island (where to go, how to behave, etc.), we were glad to have the opportunity to stay there.
