The location and value of this Airbnb are great. We did not get a chance to explore Rethymno but the Airbnb seemed to be very centrally located and within walking distance of all the main streets and attractions.
We arrived late coming from Chania and checked in at about 23:00. When we got to the Airbnb there was a lockbox but the host had not provided instructions or a code. Luckily we were able to message her over Whatsapp and she provided what was needed to get into our room. We should have messaged her the day of when we had not heard anything about checking in but as the days have been busy it would have been nice for the Airbnb host to manage the reservation better. Also, the items in the fridge (coke, beer, prosecco) all costs money and we did not see the sign saying this. Overall the stay was very clean and nice but the check in process was difficult. I believe the host was on vacation so hopefully it is better for most people when they are there in person.
