Old style hotel with basic rooms but great location and friendly staff. Perfect for visiting Knossos and heraklion museums. Great restaurants within 5 minutes walk. Also just a few minutes walk to fort, port and bus station. Rooms basic with very old showers, but beds surprisingly comfortable. Breakfast had ok choices but lacking in quality. Good budget / mid range choice for short stay.
