    Great host. Great room. Great view. City center, Knossos and the airport are at a walking distance (for me at least :D). Good experience overall.

    A very spacious, private and quiet apartment in a small building with the host living downstairs. There is a large balcony with seating and a table for eating outside. It's a 45 minute walk to the centre but the local bus service is cheap and convenient. One bus takes you directly to the city centre. Lots of coffee shops, supermarkets, bakeries and tavernas in the immediate area. There is free street parking and it was not too difficult to find a spot. The host was extremely helpful and accommodating.

    The hosts were very nice and helpful and offered a lot of advice on various topics. The location is good and has great amenities. However, this is not a beach facing location and neither is in the city center. I see it a great location for couples and families, who are budget conscious.

    Great location close to city centre. They have storage room for luggage, we had to use it both before check in and after we checked out, stuff very friendly. We got quiet room with windows facing between houses but was perfect to sleep with open window for fresh air. All new and clean. Parking just next to the hotel, for 2 eur we could park the car for 20 min to bring bags to the hotel. Easy to walk to ferry harbour. Recommend for short stopover

    A perfect flat for a short trip or a stay for longer time. Great location with lots of bakeries, coffee shops and restaurants. The flat fully identical with the pictures - modern, fully equipped (e.g. hair dryer, iron facilities, towels, etc) clean and so quiet, you even can enjoy warm evenings and nights in the small garden/terrace. Magdalena and Ibrahim are the best hosts!

    Large apartment, facilities, great location in the city center, super comfy beds. From the moment I booked the apartment, the host was very keen to share all the necessary details so me and my friends could have a smooth and pleasant stay in Heraklion. He was also very responsive and keen to answer to all our questions. I totally recommend Notos Boutique Apartments.
