This is the second time I've stayed at Michael and Christina's place. It's among locals, so if you're an adept, there are markets and shops nearby or the hosts can inform you. Both times Michael picked me up at the airport. I like their place for its location, It's within the old city and a bit naked, but I never felt afraid or threatened. I like the value and the thoughtfulness of my hosts, everything you may need is likely furnished. Though I'm an American, my demeanor and speech don't betray, and I can speak and read Greek fairly well. I'm glad I found it.
