Christina is an incredible host - very responsive and helpful - and her apartment is lovely. It’s even nicer than the pictures and full of thoughtful little touches.
Of course, the outdoor space is the main selling point and it really delivers with loads of space, sun and atmosphere.
Downsides? Well, there’s not a huge amount of indoor ‘living’ space, but with all that outdoor space you really don’t need it. And the apartment is on a street full of bars and restaurants so it is noisy late into the night, but that’s half the fun as you quickly get immersed in the Rethymno nightlife :)
