Check-in runs from 12:00 PM to midnight and check-out is at 1:00 PM, which helps if you’re planning day trips around Heraklion.
For families, the appeal is partly the relaxed atmosphere and partly the fact that children are allowed, while pet owners can travel with their animals since pets are permitted.
