Wir können die Unterkunft absolut weiterempfehlen!
Pros:

Die Lage ist super, man ist innerhalb von 5-10min in der Stadt und zum Strand von Chania benötigt man 15min. Die Unterkunft liegt sehr zentral und in einem kleinen Innenhof, damit ist das Umfeld ruhig.
Der Gastgeber ist sehr freundlich und der Kontakt verlief reibungslos.

Cons:

Negatives gibt es nichts.

Séjour en couple
Pros:

L'emplacement est parfait.

Cons:

La seule difficulté est liée au parking mais celui près du port (gratuit) n'est qu'à quelques minutes à pied.

Amazing
Pros:

Location is perfect, maximum walk to any restaurant was 9 minutes. Most were 5. Good shower, clean bathroom. Cleaner every day, new towels. Tv was good. Alex the owner was very friendly and helpful with recommendations. If you are renting a car this place is perfect as it has a reserved parking space. Yes you have to pay but the parking space is priceless. If I came back chania I would absolutely stay here again without thinking twice. There are cats around the place that are so friendly too.

Cons:

Nothing

Emplacement stratégique
Pros:

L'accueil chaleureux du gérant, son aide et sa gentillesse suite à un chute (chevilles foulées). Du personnel très discret et adorables. L'emplacement est vraiment stratégique pour visiter la ville et accéder rapidement à des restaurants tout en étant logés au calme. Le petit patio++, Un logement assez frais, nous avons peu mis la climatisation.
Des choses à améliorer mais dans l'ensemble, nous avons passé un très bon séjour.
Et encore un grand merci au propriétaire pour son aide 🙏🙏🙏.

Cons:

Un rideau occultant les parties vitrées de la porte d'entrée qui est face à la mezzanine où se trouve la chambre serait nécessaire.
Bruits d'eau des appartements voisins.
L'équipement pour cuisiner un peu limité.

Altstadtflair
Pros:

Die Lage in der Altstadt von Chania, nur wenige Schritte entfernt vom Hafen, ist hervorragend.
Die Unterkunft befindet sich in historischer Bausubstanz und verfügt, besonders auch dank der Sitzgelegenheiten im Hof, über einen gewissen Charme.

Cons:

Parken ist nicht ganz einfach.
Die kostenpflichtige Möglichkeit, einen Privatparkplatz zu mieten haben wir nicht genutzt.
Tagsüber gab es freie Plätze aber am Abend war es sehr schwierig.

The one to choose for in chania town
Pros:

Very friendly and family atmosphere when we stayed 3 nights in this place, the host Alex owner of the property made us feel welcomed and looked after us throughout our stay with his local knowledge. Also his recommendation for Cretan traditional food is delicious, we stayed in superior apartment: very quiet and peaceful in the city with beautiful looking patio. The location is key to this property everything you needed in just few minutes away. Please keep up the great work and hospitality

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

Location is great - its very close to the happening places in Chania.
Its a nice 3-storey house, which is great for families.
If you are having a car, the place has a good parking slot, which is a boon in the narrow downtown area.
And the best part is the host Alex, who is a fantastic person. He is very helpful, always available and super friendly.

Cons:

WiFi is a bit slow & patchy but considering that we were on a vacation, it wasn't a factor for us.
Like many houses in Europe, wooden flooring is creaky and walls are not sound proof at all, making the smallest sound travel across the entire apartment.

The character of the house made our stay in Chania a memorable one
Pros:

The property is a wonderful traditional home with so much interesting family history. Alex told us about his grandfather’s experience during the war. The house is within walking distance of two beaches and there are fascinating archaeological sites in the immediate area with current continuing excavations in progress. Great choice of low cost high quality food and restaurant. The harbour has a vibrant bustling atmosphere.

Cons:

The house we booked had a steeper staircase between ground and upper floor than we’d anticipated. Alex on greeting us at reception and recognising that the stairs might present difficulty, (before showing us inside the house) suggested he could relocate us into one of his more suitable properties… but we liked the house so much that we chose to manage the stairs with care. So this isn’t a negative comment about the house but more to do with personal capabilities. The owner was available to help with any request and the cleaning staff were extremely pleasant.

Schöner Aufenthalt in super-zentraler Lage mit Parkplatz.
Pros:

Lage top! Absolut sauber. Sehr netter Empfang mit Getränken im Kühlschrank! Täglich frische Handtücher sowie auch Bettenmachen ist schön, aber eigentlich gar nicht nötig. Schön hergerichtetes Apartment. Haar-Shampoo/Duschgel vorhanden. Parkplatz ist echt vorteilhaft.

Cons:

Fehlender Vorhang an der Terrasse macht Frühstück da oben schwierig, da man in der Sonne sitzt. Etwas mehr Ausstattung (Besteck, Weingläser, etc.) wäre gut. Die Treppe im Apartment ist steil - wenn man also nachts mal zum Bad muss, muss man wirklich vorsichtig sein. Gleiches gilt, wenn man ein Tablett hoch oder runter balanciert. Duschkabine sehr klein und mit Vorhang, aber das geht da halt nicht anders. Zusammen mit dem Parkplatz nicht sehr preiswert aber noch ok.

Highly recommend! Wonderful hosts and location in the old town, 10 minute walk from the bus station but also with privat
Pros:

Superb location and really wonderful hosts. Private car parking, very quiet and peaceful with ancient ruins surrounding us (in the old town). Also a washing machine - a big plus. Hosts also kindly loaded the fridge with beer coke wine. So kind. Apartment was fantastic for 5 of us travelling - thank you so much - we hope to return one day!

Cons:

Nothing - everything was perfect!
