My mother and I had a wonderful stay in Heraklion. The location is outstanding, literally a couple of steps from the main shopping and restaurant in August Street. The tourist bus is a 2 minute walk. The apartment is spacious with a huge terrace with stunning views of the harbour, fort and ocean. The only criticisms I would have is it is on the flight path and low aeroplanes go over frequently and my 73 year old mother struggled with the two flights of stairs as property is on the top floor. I would recommend this property for a stay in Heraklion.
