Our dear host Manos is like a mirror of Cretan people, and his house is like a mirror of Crete. Manos is a very friendly, hospitable, helpful host in every way. His house is simple, cozy, clean, complete and peaceful. The location is perfect. It is ten minutes to walk to the centre. However, when you come to Heraklion, you'll understand that living a little bit outside of the city centre is more preferable. You can find everything you are looking for near the house (market, cafe, bakery, etc.). I suggest not to buy any food without checking the house. Because Manos may have filled your table and refrigerator with all his generosity. There are many good things to say fro Crete, but I think the most important one is the people. If you want to see the real hospitality, friendship, generosity you have to go to Crete. Thanks for everything Manos.
