This is the best place to stay in this part of Crete! Firstly, the flat is great: clean, cosy, well equipped, has a great bathroom and quite a library with English language books. Secondly, Stavros is the best host under the sun, he really takes care of his guests as if they were his own friends, at any time of the day or night. He gave us great recommendations: from the best restaurants in the area through bakeries to supermarkets. Thirdly, the location is ideal if you want to visit more than just Rethymno, to which the city bus takes about half an hour. It's a great location to visit the monastery of Arcadi, the museum of ancient Eleutherna or the mecca of Greek ceramics in Margarites.
