Stela is a wonderful host and made me and my family feel very welcome, she and her mother who lives across the hall are so friendly and lovable, bringing the children ice-cream and homemade pastry when we came home after a day at the beach. Stelas apartment is very comfortable and beautifully furnished. It is very well located in Mires with the main street right around the corner with cafés, a bakery , a cheese store, a supermarket and many more. Even though Mires is not a place to spend your days, the town is very central if you're going to visit various places in this part of Crete and you won't meet many tourists there, with is also good because you get the feeling of a everyday cretan life. I recommend the market on saturdays and I recommend a step at Stelas place in Mires.
