Old town Rhodes is a very special place, a trip back in time with many streets so small that only pedestrians and mopeds can pass through. This rental is in keeping with the character of the area, and is in a relatively quiet corner of old town,. I would say the location is perfect for people who want to experience the historic character of the old town. You can also walk from here to many outstanding restaurants (less than 5 minutes walk) and to the port for ferry and excursions (10-15 minutes), and to all the major museums and tourist sites of Old Town (5 minutes). Beach trips would probably require a taxi, bus, or boat trip, although you can reach a beach by about 30 minute walk. All in all we were very glad we stayed in the old town of Rhodes and would highly recommend it over staying in a more modern area.
The check-in was by lock box and went smoothly. Keep in mind that your taxi will not be able to drive you to the property and will leave you at one of the gates to old town. It will be a short walk from the gate to the property. The directions on how to find the place were very clear, but you will need them on arrival. Leonidas was very responsive in making restaurant recommendations (including helping us with reservations) and arranging the airport transfers.
The property has historic character, two modern bathrooms, two spacious bedrooms with air conditioning, a loft (which we didn't use) inside one of the bedrooms which could be a third sleeping space, a well equipped kitchen, a dining area and a living room with a TV. It also has a large pretty courtyard.
The airconditioning in the bedrooms is excellent and kept the rooms cool even in hot weather. Note that there is no air conditioning in the downstairs where the living room, dining area, and kitchen are. During the day these rooms can get quite warm in the summer, which won't be an issue if you are out and about.
The courtyard is a nice area to sit outside and is a lovely place to have your meals. However,although we didn't see any mosquitoes we did get a some bug bites in the courtyard so don't forget bug spray.
