A wonderful experience!
Pros:

Ionas Hotel was outstanding. It’s only a couple minutes walk to the main area and is situated within Old Chania. The staff was the best, helping us nail down our itinerary and enjoy our stay. The breakfast was amazing. I have nothing to say other than amazing!

Pros:

La colazione era eccellente, servita al tavolo e non con il solito buffet.
C’era di tutto. Frutta, yogurt, torte, uova e sempre una proposta cretese diversa ogni mattina. Una menzione particolare a Voula che portava la colazione e brava Anna la cuoca!!!!

Cons:

Nulla! È stato tutto perfetto!!!

Pros:

Φανταστικό δωμάτιο, τοποθεσία, καθαριότητα, το κρεβάτι ήταν πολύ άνετο και τα σεντόνια μοσχοβολούσαν! Όλο το προσωπικό μας έκανε να νιώσουμε φιλόξενα. Ιδιαίτερα ευχαριστηθήκαμε
το εκπληκτικό πρωινό με την τόσο ευγενική κυρία που το σερβίρει. Σίγουρα θα ξαναέμενα εκεί

Cons:

Θα θέλαμε μια μεγαλύτερη ευελιξία στο checkout, όπως μας είπαν την πρώτη ημέρα ότι είναι εφικτό.

Cozy, warm and very welcoming place in the old town.
Pros:

Sofianne and her family do a great job. It's very easy to feel at home in their property. It's the second time I'm in the island for work, and I'll keep counting on them for future visits. Great people and great place!
