The apartment is excellent, clean and just the right size for a couple. The kitchen was great and well fitted. The hosts (Yannis and family) were absolutely amazing and friendly and do go out of their way to make you feel welcome, which I really liked,
The only two downsides I can think of are the location (it is a bit far out from the city centre of Heraklion - a 50 minute walk or a 15 minute bus ride) and it is difficult to do laundry here. However, neither of these should be a problem for people coming for a short stay.
However, I would totally recommend this apartment to people coming in the future! It really is fantastic value and the patio/balcony area is amazing for evening dinners!
