    The fact that there was a steep narrow incline and parking was very difficult, especially at night. The incline to the apartments was also dangerous. We were afraid that we were going to damage our rental vehicle. We were able to do it but what needs to be advertised is that if you have a disability this place isn't for you.

    Very good and substantial breakfast! The hosts were wonderful. The place was spotless. The view was beautiful and very peaceful!

    I wasn’t brave enough to drive down the steep drive to park my car so I parked in the street above the property.

    nice and quiet place, all clean, nice swimming pool. few bistros and restaurants very close including minimarket. it takes just 25min to reach north coast for beaches.

    A great place in the hills away from the busy beaches.

    We had to make sure we reset the hot water each time we entered the apartment or when it cut out. And as past reviews have mentioned the lane walkway is very steep down to the apartments.

    We loved the location as it was away from the busy coast but close enough to visit and best of all close to the mountains and the southern coast. There is really good places to find a traditional meal in this quiet town and the locals are welcoming. The facilities are well appointed, which suited our 4 night stay. The hosts were very welcoming and we had a home cooked meal the first night in their little restaurant at the property.

    Very welcoming lovely couple who made our first night in Crete very special - we got dinner (with Raki :) ) although we arrived very late, could swim in the nice pool in the morning and had a very big breakfast with a variety of great homemade dishes. Perfect first location if you arrive at Iraklion airport!

    Only drawback, which some may consider a feature, is that the whole property is on a quite steep slope.

    Lovely combination of traditional and modern in a local village. The couple who run it are very helpful. Evening meals are freshly cooked.

    Nothing in particular, going down from the parking lot is quite steep, at requires stamina on the way back there :-)

    Everything was there - nice room, a pool (even not too small for an adult), a restaurant run by hosts (great salads), and narrow, but available parking places. On top of that, the location looks very remote but in the village, there are a few amazing restaurants. It's also very close to Knossos and Heraklion. And last by not least - hosts are very friendly and helpful.

    Parking could be handled little bit better, there was one car blocking 3 parking places, had to park on the street.

    We did overnight stay. We have arrived late and the owner prepared for us very good and fresh Greek salad dinner. The room was clean and fitted 4 of us very easily. Pool looked inviting but we haven’t tried it due to lack of time.

    Stairs. When u leave the car in the parking, don't take ur suit case, it's dangerous path down. Only bring what u need.

    We arrived at work 10pm very hungry, and they were so helpful and made us dinner. It felt like home. We even drank Raki together and provided us with fruit for dessert. The room was super clean and comfortable. Bring coffee with u. Breakfast was amazing. I eat Gluten free so they took my bread I bought from home and made me a toast. So sweet of them! Highly recommend.

    missed a bit fresh food for breakfast (vegetable, fruit); communication with the owner can be tricky due to little English knowledge; the parking space location can be hard to maneuver due to little space and steep entry, with a small car it is okay, would not use it with big car

    Comfortable, spacious room, cool traditional furnishing, pool looked nice and clean although we did not try it

    Very beautiful house with apartments in typical Cretan style, enough space and large terraces. Perfectly clean and comfortable. Private parking. The pool is nice and clean. The food prepared by the hosts was very good, local meals home made by out host Evangelia. We had super nice evenings with the hosts as we were the only guests in this period. The place is close to Heraklion and we also traveled around to the mountains and sea in the South. We left real friends, thank you Evangelia and Niko! Hope to see you soon.
