The greatest point really was Elena's kindness and the fantastic conversation we had. This is what AirBnB should be about - and not just getting accommodation (which you get here pretty nicely as well).
The appartment is within easy walking distance from the center and thus also the central bus terminal (busses to Knossos pass almost directly). You stay at a top floor with 270 degree balcony with a nicely decorated living room, a big bathroom and full kitchen.
Yes, Breakfast is simple but anyone expecting a big variety should visit a supermarket (some are just around the corner). First to get an impression of local prices and second to stock up as required.
All in all this place is awesome value for money, I never regretted staying.
