Pros:

The host is very welcoming, giving very good suggestions on the neighborhood (the restaurant he suggested was the best I had in Heraklion!)

Cons:

I would suggest something to close the shower and avoid flooding the bathroom. A kettle would be also good for tea or coffee

très bon séjour
Pros:

Notre séjour à l'hôtel Réa s'est très bien passé : l'ensemble de l'équipe est accueillant, gentil et disponible. La chambre était bien confortable et propre, au calme avec un petit extérieur. Le petit déjeuner est copieux et avantageux pour le prix.
La situation de l'hôtel très proche du centre et du front de mer est idéale pour découvrir la ville. Nous vous recommandons cet hôtel et nous conservons l'adresse pour un futur séjour dans cette ville accueillante d'Héraklion qui mérite qu'on prenne le temps de la visiter et d'aller à la rencontre de ses habitants.

Cons:
