This house is a hidden gem in Heraklion. It is located within the walls of the Old Town, 5-10 minutes walking from all the attractions and restaurants . Parking around the house is a challenge because the roads are very narrow and spaces may be few, depending on the time of the day. It is free, though, and I have no doubt that you will find a parking spot, as we did, even if it means a few minutes walking to the house. I would suggest renting a small car, as you will fit better between cars and between walls of neighboring houses. Nikolaos is a wonderful host. He is an architect himself and has redecorated the old house with a great taste. He offered us welcome food/snacks/drinks and valuable advice about things that are off beaten path, precisely what we needed. We are amazed by Cretan hospitality and Nikolaos is definitely a true Cretan by all means. Highly recommended!
