Check out “Trip Advisor” for reviews on the above hotels at http://www.tripadvisor.com/ or http://www.holidaywatchdog.com/ or http://www.holidays-uncovered.co.uk/

Also, be advised that even though most of the above hotels offer air-conditioning, there is often a daily surcharge for its usage; usually about 4 to 6 Euros per day! Also, the listing of the above hotels/apartments should in NO way be interpreted as an endorsement by me. I have simply attempted to provide a varied choice of hotels/apartments in the vicinity of Amoudara for the Iraklion Air Station reunion in 2010. Caveat emptor!

Bob, I didn't realize you lived in Clarksville. Did you know that the former Chief of Police, Johnny C. Rosson, was an X1 on Crete the same time we were there? He and I were on the same E4 promotion list.

Yes, I knew Johnny very well. When I was looking over a roster ofnew incoming personnel for I.A.S., I saw Johnny Rosson's name on the list. To make sure it was the same Johnny Rosson who I had attended high school with in Clarksville, I asked one of the officer "day ladies" to pull his file - then I knew it was the same Johnny Rosson from Clarksville. Then I asked that same officer if he could see to it that Johnny was assigned to Charlie Flight. When Johnny arrived on Crete, he was assigned to Charlie Flight, and the rest, as they say, is history!
