Heraklion is quite Hectic, so whether this is what you're looking for or you're arriving in it in order to see the magnificant Knossos, Stella's place was for me a quiet and spacious place in a quiet street, right in the best location of town, near the sea and the amazing quay. So I was right near all the restaurants and bars, but also had a refuge from it. The place is very nice, homey and honorable and Stella was efficient, generous and welcoming. Recommending!
