This penthouse apartment is in a great position to walk to all the attractions of the old town of Heraklion. It has spacious, well kept and has all amenities needed (there is no airconditioning in the 2nd bedroom; we visited in September and this did not bother our children). Christos and his son were very helpful, meeting us at the unit when we arrived and responding to all messages promptly. They also gave us helpful information about the local area including car hire. The neighborhood was perfect for a stay with children, with a great patisserie on the corner and also in close proximity to a supermarket. One should be aware there are steep stairs to get to the apartment (no lift in the building) which did not bother us but was a bit of work getting our heavy suitcases up when we first arrived.
