This apartment is perfectly positioned to see the major sites of Iraklion. Easy public parking is just a few minutes walk away, and the host is extremely kind, flexible and responsive. The bed is comfortable and the amenities are decent. However, we did not feel like it deserved the “luxury” title. It is a above-standard apartment with decent air-conditioning, OK bathroom and fixtures, and survivable kitchenette. But the years are beginning to show, especially on some of the soft furnishings and more consumable furniture. This is not to say that we didn’t have a wonderful time; the apartment was great, the owner super helpful and the location superb. It was well worth the price we paid -just don’t expect top luxury.
