Maria's apartment is a perfect place to stay for your visit to rent in Rethymno it is exactly as described in her description. We stayed for for 10 days and enjoyed every moment , there is sound from outside but close the doors and it disappears, The air-conditioning is perfect we only used in the one room so as to enjoy the sea breeze too sleep. All in all it is a great base for your stay with great views of the sea and plenty of space on the balcony, and and in the apartment itself you can cook virtually anything you like. You have the use of a washing machine and an iron. Very short walk to centre of Old Town and also the beach is very close. Car rental from Arkardi is a 2 minute walk . And because of where you stay they will let you park the hire car with them, he did so for us I am sure he will do the same for you. All in all we had a great stay at Maria's apartment and look forward to returning soon I hope this helps.
