Overall, this was a lovely place to stay. It's located just 10 km from Rethymno, so we had easy access to the city, Chania and Heraklion. It also made access to the south of the island a breeze. The property was clean and spacious, though it could use some updates (appliances, kitchen supplies, showers, etc.). The host and their team were incredibly helpful and supported us as we worked out the kinks in our itinerary. The house is located near a strip of hotels, which makes this area safe and has a lot of food options. I'd recommend renting a car which the host can help you coordinate :)
