The room was clean, we had everything we needed, the air-conditioning was priceless. The hostess is very helpfull, communication was perfect. The place is not in a centre but only a few minutes of walking you are in a rush street, near to bus stops, shops and restaurants, only 30 min. to Knossos on foot, e.g.

All units are fitted with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with satellite channels, a fridge, a coffee machine, a shower, a hair dryer and a wardrobe. With a private bathroom, units at the homestay also boast free WiFi, while certain rooms come with a balcony. At the homestay, every unit comes with bed linen and towels.

The place is in absolutely perfect location. You are 10 min walk from the main streets where are all the sightseeing. But from the other side the neighbourhood is for local people, also you can grab cup of coffee and sandwich on reasonable price. Nice bakery and the shops were very close to the private rooms. Moreover we liked that rooms have own fridge, sheets are fresh and new. The room is lovely with small decorations details as pictures, figures. Mike was ready to help any time. We had also nice view from the balcony. Overall it was very comfortable stay and we hope to come again sometimes. We wish Mike good guests and are grateful for his kindness:)

    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.

    Location was very good. 10 minutes on foot from Morosini fountain with restaurants and cafes, 10 minutes from Elevtheria Square with Museum, buses to Knossos, beach and airport. Manos is a great host, speaks very good English, can give advice and is very helpful. We liked the house a lot. It has a roof terrace, lots of plants and is all in an individual, interesting style.

    Clean, safe, modern and cozy. Communication with the owner was easy. Nice location next to a small, peaceful agora. From our 2nd floor balcony we could follow everyday life of the locals, which we considered a big plus. There's a small church next to the apartments, so you can here brief ringing of the bells earliest around 7 am. Apartment is close to city center, port and major bus lines to airport, Knossos and beaches. We will definitely choose Fontem Central Living next time we visit Heraklion!

    The flat is in a quiet district ten minutes walk from the centre of town and is fully equipped. Our host, Maria, was there to give us our keys, but that took a bit of arranging, since our bus from Chania was an hour late. The flat is obviously lived in by real people when it's not being rented out and there were many things which made one feel as if one were living in someone's private home.
