    Such things don’t exist in this case

    Exceptional is the right word for it! everything was perfect: the location, the interior and most importantly the owner Effie. she was very helpful and friendly, she sent us so much deferent useful information, brought some presents. we had almost everything in the kitchen, even different types of coffee. We definitely would come back for a longer stay, 4 days were not enough

    Everything went very smoothly, so no comments here

    Studio was in a great location, right in the center. Restaurants, shops, sights were all very close, but it was not noisy in the apartment. Effie was a lovely host and was always at hand to offer advice on travel, or sort out any issues. We really enjoyed our short stay.

    Effie’s Cozy Studio is a brilliant place to stay. Right in the Old Town of Rethymno it is convenient for the shops, restaurants and beaches. The Studio really is cozy and with a balcony overlooking the street feels spacious and modern. The best thing though is Effie. She is there for you- by your side suggesting lovely places to go and visit. This makes the stay truly memorable. Thank you Effie.

    Effie was a fantastic and caring host for our family. She helped organise airport transfers with booster seats for the children. The apartments are in the best location! Right in the middle of old town, yet once inside you cannot hear the hustle and bustle. Effie gifted us with some local home made drinks and olive oil which is such a lovely gesture! Highly recommended. she had a high chair, cot, toys, linen and even little dressing gowns for our little boys! So lovely!

    It was a pleasure to stay at Effie’s. She went out of her way to make personal touches around the apartment and made sure that we had everything we needed and more! The apartment was very clean and comfortable. We were offered welcome drinks and local products to try. The apartment is on the main street in the old town, walking distance to everything.

    Everything was perfect. Effie is the definition of a genuinely perfect host! She greeted us with homemade lemonade and raki on our arrival. Provided us with restaurant recommendations which proved amazing! Not to mention the amenities provided for our twin little girls, cots, toys, 3 sets of baby towels, and a nappy changer. The room is modernly designed and everything is well thought out. Beds were comfy and the room had aircondition.On our departure she bid us farewell with some amazing greek homemade pastries. Thank you, we will definitely return!

    We arrived by car. The apartment is in the "old town" district with restrictive access by car. We should have checked out the accesd the day before arrival. Effie was very helpful on the day in directing us to parking zones.

    The location is great, being very central to the hustle and bustle of the old town. Effie is the perfect host and the apartment is a credit to her and her family, the terrace area has a great view of one of the main streets of the old town of Rethymno so great to people watch from . Thanks for the treats left on the door they're very nice. The noise from the street doesn't detract from the enjoyment of sitting outside and when inside the apartment in the evening it's very quiet. I would recommend Effies to anyone, but if you have mobility issues you should know that there are 2 flights of stairs to reach the top apartment.
