Excellent hosts! A lovely few days!

We were warmly welcomed by Valetina in this little family apartment hotel surrounded by a small garden and located 16 km off Heraklion. Spacious and clean rooms. Very good Cretan food. The pool was large and clean well located in front of the hotel with late afternoon sunshine.

We got off to a rocky start as we arrived late ( we let them know ahead of time) and no one told us the AC costs 5 extra euro a day so the remote for the AC was not left in the room. Because of this our first night was pretty horrid. The screenless windows and doors onto otherwise lovely balconies let in an army of starving mosquitos and every noise: the crying baby next door, the plane that seemed to be landing on the roof, a pack of dogs, roosters and more. However, the next morning we met the staff and they are very nice. They even let us stay a few hours longer at check out. The food in the cabana is outstanding and the pool area is lovely. Bus and taxi stand are about 3 minutes away. We paid 27 euros for the taxi from the airport. The room is very basic. Tp doesnt go in the toilet, clean towels every three day, squigy to push the water down the drain since the shower is so small the whole bathroom gets wet. Still, the price, excellent food and kind people make it worth roughing it. Great for a couple days in Crete. May be a little far out from town, but we enjoyed just lazing by the pool.
