We had a great time in the apartment. It corresponds to the descriptions, is very centrally located directly in the first row in the port, many very good restaurants in the immediate neighborhood. As in previous reviews also said, it is very noisy especially on Friday and Saturday due to the central location. But even with 14-month-old Child it did not bother us (with the window closed it is ok), because we had chosen the accommodation because of its location (the reception from the baby monitor reaches into the taverns ;) ). The apartment was very clean and was cleaned once in between and equipped with new towels and bed linen. So we can definitely recommend the accommodation and will be happy to come back.
Wir waren für drei Tage in der Unterkunft und es war sehr schön. Man hat einen direkten Blick über den Hafen und die Promenade. Wie von Gastgeber beschrieben hat man Abends Geräusche der Gastronomie. Bei geschlossener Balkontür ist das aber gar kein Problem. Wir kommen gerne wieder!
host molto propositivo con gli itinerari e taverne da visitare. l'appartamento è come descritto. assolutamente fantastica la vista dal balcone che da sul porto con locali subito sotto. Come detto da altri, la presenza dei locali comportava del rumore fino a tarda notte, ma questo lo sapevo ed era già segnalato dall'host. Ciò non ha costituito un problema dato che bastava chiudere le finestre e con l'aria condizionata si stava bene. il balcone è vivibile dall'ora di pranzo in poi prima il sole battente impedisce di starci perché fa veramente caldo (una bella tenda ci starebbe bene). in conclusione, considerando un po tutto, ci tornerei.
We had a really great time in Sitia. The apartment is very nice and located perfectly directly at the promenade. We will for sure come back.
Thank you for this nice stay! + the location is next to everything, nice Bars, Restaurants, shopping, beach + very clean + best views + the host is very helpful in every manor and reachable 24/7 + flexible check in / out - location is a bit noisy at night but we knew before See you again :)
