We had a wonderful stay at Maria, Rita's place. Rita is a great host. Check-in was very flexible and Rita was available to suit our arrival time. She gave us some very good tips for visits in the area. The apartment itself was spotlessly clean and the perfect space for a couple. The balcony is large and the sea-view is wonderful. The location was great for us as we used the very good local bus station just up the road. We were able to make many trips around Western Crete - a beautiful place. You can walk everywhere in Rethymnon - the fortress, the local town and the restaurants, beaches. I would highly recommend the apartment for a short break in Rethymnon.
