This is a lovely little place to stay; beautiful, stylish, clean and well supplied with everything we needed. The exterior with pool and fir trees was very pleasant too. We had no issue with traffic noise. Communication was easy and good, and we had some helpful recommendations. The only thing I would say is that you will need a car to get around as it is in between busy roads that we felt it would be too dangerous to cross on foot. Having said that, there is a sweet little friendly taverna 5 minutes walk away, and that was good for a night out when we wanted a drink and not to drive. It is a good place from which to explore the area of Rethymno, and an easy drive to and from the airport of Heraklion.
