    Nothing. We were not bothered by the set of stairs as mentioned in other reviews.

    We stayed for two nights to hike mount Psiloritis. The apartment was authentically decorated, spotless clean and very comfortable. The view from the balcony was amazing. The highlight was the apartment’s owner, the lovely and charming Miss Poppy, who made us feel very welcome. She invited us for coffee and breakfast and let us see a part of Cretan culture that we could not find elsewhere on the island. We would warm heartedly recommend this place! Thank you Miss Poppy for everything! Karin & Guus

    Even though there was a cooker and fridge freezer, the space was not suitable for cooking even a simple meal.

    Poppy was extremely friendly and helpful, the location and view from the balcony was incredible. Bed really comfortable, interesting furnishings!

    This place is beautiful, magical and feels like staying at Grandma's house! The room, with high wooden ceilings, is decorated intricately with beautiful weavings and embroidery wall hanging and pillows that were made by the owner, Poppi, as well as many fun antiques. Poppi's shop is downstairs where she sells some of her art. She is very warm and friendly, and if you speak English and not much Greek, her son speaks fluid English and is very helpful and easy to message. The location is so convenient, close to the town square and the bus, but also enough removed from the town square so that if you don't want to join in with all of the evening Cretan festivities you can get some quiet and good rest. Very clean, comfy bed, and the fan keeps it cool. Also, nice lighting options. Beautiful grape vine covered balcony and sunsets! It was hard to leave!

    A beautiful apartment, lavishly decorated with Cretan art, traditional decorations, antique tools and utensils and beautiful, patterned carpets and textiles. Poppy, the host, was very helpful, full of good cheer and always ready to assist. The apartment was impeccably clean and the view outside just stunning. Can't recommend it enough!

    We came to hike Psiloritis, so we really don't mind just a few stairs.

    Stunning mountain view!! Finally, a comfy, not too soft bed. The room is authentic, the kitchen is well-equiped, and the bathroom is big enough :). Mrs Poppi waited for us until late (!!) and later baked us little something sweet and made us a good Cretan coffee. Communication with Mrs Poppi and her son also wonderful.

    Beautiful accommodation, super location and great view (although you have to take some stairs for that). In addition, we were very nicely taken care of. From the accommodation you can get directly to the center and to some restaurants and cafes. We have felt very comfortable

    This is a fantastic place to stay in Anogia. The host, Popi, is incredibly caring and warm, always making sure you have plenty to eat, offering to make a coffee, and checking in about how the stay is going. Also, she is a skilled weaver, and the apartment is full to the brim with handmade things that make you feel the care put into this place. The view from the balcony is spectacular, taking in both the sea and the ridge of Psiloritis. I really cannot recommend this place highly enough, thank you for a wonderful stay!

    As we only stayed one night, we didn’t use the kitchen. That could feel a little small if you intend to use it, but we are not sure.

    Very lovely host, amazing views and clean authentic room. We arrived late in the evening and only stayed one night, so we experienced the great view for a short while. Next time we are gonne be sure to spend a little bit more time in this lovely place. Poppy was very welcoming. We found the apartment extremly clean, although there are many small items for decoration.

    It was a little bit too dark and cold in the shower (maybe because it is all made from the bricks of stones and there is no window). Also you have to keep in mind that if you want to reach your room, you have to climb 29 steps. But if you have no problems with a health it will be not a problem.

    Good location with a view to the mountains, parking place near property, good facilities at the kitchen - we had everything we need. Extremely friendly owner and her dog. She met us when we arrived, served a very good mountain tea and some snacks. And as many review say - property is like a little ethnographic museum. So many old stuff but despite that it was very clean and comfortable.

    for us, the room was too overcrowded with stuff and objects but this is part of the ‘traditional’ character of the room. similarly to many houses in Anogia there is a very steepy staircase to reach the room.

    traditional and sunny apartment in the centre of Anogia. it is a perfect base to explore the Psiloritis region. Poppi, the owner, was very nice and welcoming.
