We loved the place! It's in a central location but in a quiet area. It was not a problem for us to climb up to the loft area. The air conditioning made it very comfortable. From the patio we had a great view of the ocean and loved watching the sunsets. We were close to lots of restaurants, mini markets and bakeries. A half hour walk got us to two different beaches that we really liked (livadia and parasporos) but there was also a city beach within 30 metres. You can take a boat for 6 euros per person return to Marchello (sp) beach. The apartment is well stocked with everything you want in the kitchen. The decor is beautiful. We can't say enough good things about our stay here!
