Bright, clean, well equipped and comfortable

Nothing!

This apartment is really a gem! The location is perfect and you are in the heart of Rethimno! We loved the style of the apartment and we fell in love with it immediately! The living room is so cozy and the big TV has all German channels, Netflix, Prime,.... The kitchen is so well equipped and it was perfect to make breakfast and small dinner. The bed is heaven! We slept so well, it was the best bed on our trip on Crete! The patio and the terrace are just amazing, you have to see that! Our host Effie was wonderful! Her recommendations especially for the food were incredible! She is such a warm and nice person and she made our trip unique! We extended our stay because we felt like home here!

It was perfect!

Very cosy and clean. Great location right in the old town of Rethymno. Effie the host was very kind and extremely helpful. Wonderful stay overall ☺️

Effie was an amazing host, she went above and beyond what's expected :) The apartment has great location, it's quiet and has really nice terrace.

Location was very central , right in the Centre of town. Perfect location to take in the Venetian Fortressa , hang out at the cafes or tavernas in the evening. I especially like to walk the road along the water - front below the Fortressa. Nice small balcony to sip coffee on and watch people go by below.

You do get a bit of street noise coming up from the road below ( very little vehicle traffic - mostly pedestrian)

Effie was the best host I have ever encountered! She made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. The apartment was amazing, both in location and comfort. We definitely recommend it!

Effie was such an attentive and kind host, by far the best host we’ve ever had. Effie greeted us with homemade lemonade, raki, wine and olive oil, all of which were delicious. Effie really went above and beyond during our 8 night stay, making sure we had the best recommendations in the area and everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Effie even brought us some local cheese pastries on one of the mornings, these are now a firm favourite of ours! she also gave us a good bye gift, which was incredibly kind. If you’re looking for the perfect place to stay within the old town then this is it, the studio is very comfortable and modern and has a balcony which is perfect for people watching. We would 100% return.

There’s no parking with it being within the heart of the old town but this was never a problem for us, we always found free parking up by the Fortezza and it was a delightful 7 minute walk to the studio from there.

The owner, Effie, is a wonderful woman who met us personally with homemade wine and cookies even though we were delayed and came late in the evening. I have never met such a caring and helpful host before. She has explained us about all the places we could visit around and even showed on the map. It was very easy to communicate with her. Really grateful for the time we have spent there. The apartment is in the middle of old town, close to everything. It has a big sunny terrace with the cover, kitchen and everything else that you would require..

Everything was good.

Absolutely beautiful studio apartment in the old town. Effie has modernised the apartments with careful attention to detail and high quality finish whilst keeping the original features. The result is charming and comfortable. Everything was immaculate and the bed was super comfortable. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony and watching the activity in the street below. Excellent double glazing means that when you close the windows and doors, the apartment is peaceful. Effie is a superb hostess and goes above and beyond to make your stay special. We appreciated the many extra touches - homemade lemonade, olive oil, wine and raki from her family plot, coffee and tea provided. She really has thought of everything. Great advice on places to go and restaurant recommendations too. Highly recommended and would happily return. Thank you Effie!
