Downtown Spacious Loft Apartment just 3 minutes from City Centre

It's a very sweet apartment — spacious, clean and very well-equipped for cooking, with a lot of shampoos, shower-gels, hair dryer as well:) It has a gorgeous terrace with stunning views! The host was extremely kind and caring and allowed us to check in much earlier than expected. The small room was very quiet and cosy.

I would love to give this apartment a score of 9, but the only reason I gave slightly lower score was the noise from the main street. The big room might not be optimal for people with a sensitive sleep because of the noise, although the small room is perfectly quiet and cosy.

We had to get help from people working in a gym donstairs to get the key. It was hard to open the door. Getting in was traumatic.

I was only interested in properties with an elevator because climbing stairs makes me hyperventalate and become dizzy. There is an elevator, but to get to it requires climbing stairs. It took the 2 of us to get up the flight of stairs to the elevator. We had no internet. I called Booking.com. They talked to the owner. He gave me a snotty answer which intimidating me from asking for more help.

Emplacement pratique dans le centre ville d'Héraklion, calme. Appartement agréable, lumineux, spacieux, confortable. Nous avons apprécié l'accueil (café, sucre, eau fraiche, épices à disposition, produits d'entretien). Grande télé, climatisation.

L'appartement était confortable mais nécessite quelques petites réparations (robinet de la cuisine mal fixé, bonde du lavabo qui ne s'ouvre pas, une lumière au dessus du lit ne s'éteignait pas, 2 chaises cassées, lit trop ferme. Pas de taxi à l'aéroport comme demandé sur le site (erreur de ma part?). Peu d'intimité : un lit séparé et les 3 autres dans la pièce principale.

Location is central in Heraklion. Walking distance to transport, city centre and eateries. Excellent location. No light near lock box and unable to see. Had to use mobile phone torch to see as arrived at night and light on the floor of the apartment foyer not working. Host responded promptly to all of our messages.

Property has stairs to first floor and very challenging for us as we all had sizeable luggage and staircase railing was incomplete. Not safe. Property is very dated. It appears to be a converted office space now accommodation. No ventilation in bathroom or toilet or kitchen. Musty smells when opening kitchen cupboard and humidity when using shower. Used dish sponges and cloths were made available to us. Place looked fairly clean but didn’t feel like it. Air con unsatisfactory as no doors as space is all open plan. Kitchen in two parts and no ventilation. Disappointed with our accommodation.

Very large

Dated. Must walk up flight of stairs to elevator.

Our stay was a bit unusual- we were there for 7 weeks. So got to know the location and apartment very well. The space is great and having sinks in both the WC and separate shower room is a great plus. The location is about as good as one could ask for- directly on one of the main streets at the edge of the “old” own. Made for easy walks and access to local busses. There are lots of great restaurants & cafes nearby. Our host answered each of my ?’s promptly. AC worked great and there is a good sized refrigerator We really enjoyed the time in the apartment and Heraklion and hope to return.

Since you are on a busy street there is some street noise (mostly in the evening) and you will be entertained by the church bells (7 to 11). Tho there is a great elevator- here is a full flight of stairs to the 1st floor where it begins.
