Доброжелательность. Красивое, удобное место
Pros:

Нас встретили как долгожданных гостей, окружили заботой и вниманием. Нас ждало угощение, чистота и красивый ухоженный дом. Тихие сплит-системы, два душа и туалета, шаговая доступность до всего, большой удобный балкон.
Спасибо за ваше гостеприимство!
С радостью остановимся у вас еще.

L'hôtel Afroditi est situé dans la vieille ville, dans une rue au calme. Le parking est à moins de 10 min à pied. Chambre/maisonnette très fonctionnelles , très propre

Pros:

Posizione centrale e accoglienza. L'appartamento veniva pulito quotidianamente con cambio asciugamani. Il sig Yannis ci ha risolto il problema del parcheggio e ci ha dato ottimi consigli.

Cons:

Schiamazzi esterni la notte ma di giorno silenzio pur essendo al centro.

Una menzione particolare va fatta all’host Yannis. Mai invadente ma sempre disponibile e presente. Una persona veramente
Pros:

La struttura è in una posizione eccezionale, e’ situata nel centro storico ma comunque caratterizzata da grande tranquillità. E’ dotata di tutti i confort compreso un bagno di servizio nella camera da letto

Cons:

Le zanzariere andrebbero ripristinate

The best place I stayed in Crete!
Pros:

I can’t thank enough! Afroditi was PERFECT! And the gentleman managing the place was one of the most helpful, knowledgeable and hospitable people I met in Crete. The room was impeccable! It was really spacious and beautiful, with 2 small balconies, a nice big bed and equipped with everything I could think of (iron, all kinds of glasses, washing machine and powder etc.). Moreover, nice fresh fruit and juice were already in the fridge, which was super pleasant! Finally, the hotel location was very central, but in a quiet street.
I would Definitely stay again at Afroditi if I come to Rethymno. And I think it could be also comfortable for longer stays.

Cons:

Nothing, it was really Great!)

Ottima e accogliente struttura vicino al mare!
Pros:

La struttura è accogliente quanto il gentile Yannis che la gestisce. Con premura e cortesia. Dando consigli e molte gradevoli attenzioni : dalla frutta fresca al ventaglio, passando per il magnete souvenir greco..! Anche per il parcheggio c'è stata un'ottima soluzione.
La camera molto ampia e pulita, con un letto comodo a baldacchino, finemente rivestita di legno, grandi porte finestre con mini balcone.
Tutto l'occorrente per cucinare.
In centro ma fuori dal rumore!
Consigliatissimo.

Une perle à Rethymnon.
Pros:

Tout ! Que ce soit le côté humain comme le lieu, tout est parfait. Une perle idéalement situé au cœur de Rethymnon à 2 pas du front de mer et des animations de cette belle ville. Les conseils de Yannis, sa générosité, son accueil, c'était top. Une adresse à retenir pour un prochain séjour.

Pros:

Beliggenheten, gode senger, veldig god service, velutstyrt kjøkken.

Cons:

Ingen gode muligheter til å sitte behagelig. Kun spisestuestoler. Burde vært en sofa i stuen. Blir aldri komfortabel med at man ikke kan kaste dopapir i toalettet i Hellas.

Klimatyczny pensjonat na starówce
Pros:

Pensjonat z charakterem w samym centrum miasta, na starówce. Cudowny gospodarz, który przyjął nas winem, owocami. Yannis przekazał wiele przydatnych informacji o okolicy i zapewnił parking. Na pewno tutaj wrócimy!
