This apartment is in an amazing location. From your balcony, you can see the western walls of the Old Town (with the sea behind), but you are in a relatively quiet residential neighbourhood.
Five minutes walk takes you to the old town; five minutes walk the other way takes you to the town beach; two minutes walk down the road takes you to a full-sized supermarket. This is location, location, location, and there isn't much more important while travelling.
The apartment itself is a decent sized one-bedroom with one tiny balcony and one big balcony. The big balcony faces north and you have a sea view. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could need. The stovetop is very powerful. The fridge/freezer is huge and can hold a lot of food.
The bathroom has a "space age" shower with many different water nozzles. It is nice not to have to hold the shower outlet up! It is very clean.
The bedroom has the tiny balcony and half a wardrobe for use. The bed is very comfortable.
Georgios left raki in the fridge, some bread in the cupboard, and his check-in instructions were very simple. He has decorated the apartment in a very "domestic" way, it doesn't feel like a hotel, it feels like a real part of Crete.
The wifi was very good - much better than we experienced in Athens.
Our stay was cut short because we had expected air-conditioning, and with 40+ degree temperatures, this was crucial.
