My wife went into preterm labor with our son while we were on vacation, and I ended up needing a place to stay in Heraklion. I am certainly glad I found Giorgos’s apartment, as I could not imagine a better place to stay, or a better host. Giorgos is incredibly kind and helpful and speaks fantastic English. He met me to check me in and show me how to work the washing machine and sent me a long list of his recommendations for stores and places to eat in the area. He was in regular contact throughout my stay to answer questions about the area, met me to drive me to an open pharmacy when I needed something for my wife, and came to change our linens himself when the hired cleaner made a scheduling mistake. He was flexible with our stay and allowed us to extend it until our son was ready to go home. The apartment itself is a clean and bright studio in a nice building on a quiet block, with a great A/C system, nice bathroom and well-equipped kitchenette, about a 10-15 minute walk from the hospital and a block away from the main street with east bus access to the city center. Giorgos provided the highest-quality Airbnb experience during a very stressful time for my family—we can’t thank or recommend him enough.
