Property is outdated. Bathroom and entrance room in our bungalow has dingy lighting, fruit flies all over and a broken window latch. The shower is from the 80’s. Definitely will not be coming back. There are much better options in Rethymno for this price range.

Great spot if you plan on taking a ferry to santorini, its a 20 minute walk. Breakfast was nice here. Only downside was paper thin walls on the first floor, youll be able to hear your neighbors if they are loud!

We visited Heraklion, Chania, and Agios Nikolaos in addition to Rethymno. All things considered, it was the best place to stay. The street along the ocean, with shops and restaurants, was walkable and made things easy.
