The apartment was clean, well equipped, and conveniently located with a pleasant ocean view. It was within a 15-minute walk to the old city and in close proximity to some of the best restaurants in Rethymno. However, a significant drawback was the persistent and highly unpleasant sewage smell that would permeate the entire apartment whenever the toilet was flushed or the shower was used. The odor was so overpowering at one point that we had no choice but to vacate the apartment. Contrary to the manager's explanation attributing the smell to humidity, it was clearly a separate issue. Hopefully, this problem will be resolved promptly to prevent it from affecting the experience of future guests.
