If you are looking for the all-around carfree package in Heraklion, Sofia is the host you are looking for. Her apartment is located in a quiet neighborhood (apart from a construction site across the street, as of November 2021) but close to the city center, which is about 10 minutes by foot. Conveniently there are a supermarket, a laundry station as well as an affordable taverna just around the corner. Whenever we had any questions or wishes, Sofia was there to provide top notch service and information, which we really appreciated. We would not hesitate to stay at her place again!
