Niki's place is fantastically located. Literally just a 2 minute's walk away from the KTEL bus station, which you'll be using extensively to go to/from the airport as well as other things in Crete (Knossos, various beaches, etc.). It has supermarkets (like SINKA) close by, and it is a short 5-10 minute walk away from the old port, filled with shops and restaurants. Niki was very accommodating and we thoroughly enjoyed our time! Her recommendations for food, beaches and 'things to do' were all great and we'll gladly book this place again next time we're in Crete!
