We really liked George’s loft, it is very spacious and nicely decorated with what I could describe as ecclectic/retro graphics style. I think that the location cannot be beat, it’s on a walking street that I could describe as right off the main restaurant and cafe area, it’s right there but on a somewhat quieter stretch so you don’t get as much noise. It’s a stone’s throw away from the central lion fountain. In my opinion it’s in a preferrable location than the 5 star hotel nearer to the port. When you are done with your day in Heraklion, you can just walk back to the house in a flash and then sit on his balcony while playing cards, drinking the ouzzo that his mom left in the freezer and listening to the greek families having their 3-hour dinners in the restaurants on the streets below. You will like that place and will find communicating with George is easy and quick, I highly recomment staying there!
