We got a very warm reception from Yorgos and he explained everything you have to know about your surrounding and even nearby destinations to visit and he was always there whenever we needed something.
The apartment is great, but it can be a bit noisy, especially in the morning. But you have everything you need in a 10-15 minute walk, top. Except for Rethimno centre which is a bit further away with a nice, long walk on the beach.
