    The location is perfect, right in the center. It can be a little noisy, but the bedroom is in the back and was very quiet. it is not new, but appeared to be freshly painted. The furnishings were comfortable. The owner is friendly and keeps a close...

    It is spotlessly clean, a charming little apart in a small village, Zacros. It is close to the Zacros Gorge walk.

    The host was very nice. The checkin was quick and easy. Apartment has all the essentials that you need for cooking simple breakfast or dinner. We had a car at the time we were there we didn’t have any issues finding parking at the church.
