Peccato
Avevo scelto questa sistemazione perché collocata in un piccolo paese a circa 15 Km da Heraklion: purtroppo la scelta della tranquillità è stata rovinata da un continuo via vai di moto e auto. Altri lati negativi 1) i divani di chi dovrebbe dormire in sala sono a prova di fachiro 2) delle varie sistemazioni in Creta è stata la più cara 3) non esiste per pagare la possibilità dell'uso della carta di credito
Lati positivi la gentilezza della signora,l'esterno dell'appartamento dove fai colazione(a pagamento) il paese di Archanes
