Pluses:
+ location is great, 1 min to the beach, 15 min to the center of city. I enjoyed sometimes sounds of sea during night. Bus station is in 25 min
+ flat is nice, big enough with nice balcony, some of new furniture
+ of course the city is the most beautiful in Crete
- no hot water sometimes because solar panels do not provide the necessary part of the hot water. The owner suggested using central heating, but in the evenings and mornings the water was always cold, and someone always turned off the central heating. As a result, I never knew whether there would be hot water now or not. And to turn on the central heating, you had to go down to the floor below and wait for 15-20 minutes after that
- communication with the host because when I complained about the hot water and how inconvenient it was to constantly go down, she began to argue that I should be grateful for the low price. Hello, it's hot water! What does the price have to do with it?
- the apartment is a bit shabby, the faucet is leaking, the toilet is leaking, the stove is very rusty, the frying pan is not suitable for cooking. For whom it is important - take care.
- wi-fi works intermittently, sometimes online calls and meetings are interrupted.
My trip to Rethymno was wonderful except for the interruptions of hot water and some other unpleasant moments with the host
