I have traveled around quite a bit in my life, and I can say that this was by a wide margin, the best accommodation I could have asked for. The apartment was located in the perfect place - right near the bus stop, with a 5 min bus ride to the Palace at Knossos, and only 10 or so to the center of the city. The area is peaceful, friendly, and very walkable. The apartment has all the amenities you could want, powerful AC for hot Cretan days, great WiFi, a lovely shower, and a kitchen with everything you need to cook for yourself (if you don't want Cretan food, for some reason!). The best part of the experience, by far, was the warm, thoughtful, and extraordinary hospitality of Giorgos and his lovely wife! All the best recommendations, quick responses in case I had any problems (which I didn't), and a genuine interest in sharing with me an authentic taste of all the best of Heraklion and Crete. From the start, I didn't feel like a guest, I felt like an old friend. Thanks to this stay, I love Crete, and will have to return, as soon as I can. Bravo, Giorgos and Rodula, bravo!
