Wonderful hotel in the heart of Chania with excellent staff!
Pros:

Lovely boutique hotel in the heart of Chania. Gorgeous view of the ocean and the light house!

The staff were the best of our whole trip. Welcome drink was a lovely touch, we were also given a bottle of wine and a fruit bowl to celebrate our honeymoon.

The woman on reception (didn’t get her name) was particularly kind, offering us a breakfast box when we had to leave early for a sailing day and were missing the hotel breakfast. She also let us stay an extra hour on our check out day when I was feeling unwell, and gave us some tea and biscuits to help my stomach.

Thank you for a lovely stay.

Cons:

The only negative is that there’s no elevator - those stairs are brutal with a suitcase!

Chambre vieillotte, toute petite salle de bain (chambre vue mer au 3ème étage), pas d'ascenseur. Très difficile de garer la voiture.
Trop cher.

Pros:

Sehr freundliches Personal und eine sehr gute Lage mitten in der Altstadt. Besonders interessant war es, in einem so alten venezianischen Gebäude zu übernachten – das gehört definitiv zum gesamten Erlebnis dazu.

Cons:

Das alte Gebäude hat, wie zu erwarten, keinen Aufzug. Das sollte man vor allem einplanen, wenn man mit einem großen Koffer anreist. Außerdem riecht das Gebäude stellenweise etwas nach einem alten Haus, was aufgrund des Alters des Gebäudes aber nicht überraschend ist.

Pros:

La ubicaión estaba perfecta; en la habitación una de las camas estaba armada en una especie de nicho y eso era desagradable; el desayuno muy completo y rico.

Cons:

deben aclarar, es MUY IMPORTANTE que digan que para ir a las habitaciones hay que hacerlo por escalera. De haberlo sabido no íbamos allí, más siendo que la que nos dieron estaba en el segundo piso. Tengo problemas en las rodillas y una de las cosas que me indicaron es evitar las escaleras, tener que subirlas y bajarlas varias veces al día es muy incómodo, y entiendo que no solo por mi problema, a mi familia también le molestó. De hecho nos fuimos al día siguiente a otro hotel.

Casa con encanto, pero incómoda
Pros:

El alojamiento es una casa antigua con encanto, muy bien situada.

Estábamos en una tercera planta sin ascensor. Nos tocó un duplex con un baño pequeñito en la planta de abajo

Convenient location - Helpful Staff
Pros:

Convenient location. Friendly and helpful staff. Coffee was made to order the way you liked it. Fresh orange juice and a variety of breakfast dishes - both hot and cold.

Cons:

We had to walk up 3 flights of stairs but the staff helped carry our bags. Next time I would specify that I wanted a lower floor since I am a senior.
