very good hotel in the aspect conditions-price. there are beaches nearby on foot distance; bus stop for public transport on 50 m (buses are until midnight every 15 minutes and it takes about 15 minutes to the center of the city for 1,5 euros only); delicious affordable food in the hotel restaurant; kindly and responsive staff; cleanness - the towels and sheets are changed every day; the room is big enough

We were there overnight, and it would probably make a good budget to stop for longer, as the pool area was nice, and the restaurant has a great view and very good food. The actual room while large was fairly basic, particularly the ensuite with handheld shower and curtain, the room smelled a bit smokey, but the sheets were very soft and good quality. Also we had expected on-site parking, it turned out to be roadside, though there was plenty and it seemed fairly safe. The staff were very pleasant and helpful.

Great location, very nice place to stay
Great locations as just few mins to bus stop (bus no 21 goes directly to Chania). Within max 10mins walk you have few nice restaurants ( highly recommend Sunbaboo!!) The hotel is clean, good swimming pool, new and clean aircon, rooms are cleaned every day. And very decent price.

A good price and wonderful location, but we had no Wifi or cell reception in our room. We also had poor drainage in the shower and a broken fridge, but the manager fixed both of those problems.

I liked the hotel and the friendly family that runs it. They took care if anything I asked for, clean towels, calling a taxi, getting me a hairdryer etc. They were kind and thoughtful.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The location gave a beautiful view, but fairly far from downtown Chania. The bed was alright and the bathroom was functional but the shower kind of leaked onto the floor. The biggest issue was the mold on the wall of my room near my bed, luckily it wasn't black mold so I wasn't overly concerned. I didn't say anything but probably should have, didn't notice until later though. Other than that the place seemed nice, it had a pool but I never used the amenities. Did find a great little restaurant within walking distance though!

Close to everything
We have stayed here before. We like that it is very close to everything and you can take the bus from the airport. They renovated the restaurant patio which is nice. They said that they will be doing some room reservations next year, hopefully they put in some ceiling fans and some shower curtains. Also a few fresh fruit for beakfast might be nice. We had a good time. And may go back again.

Perfect spot
This hotel is located in the area of Kalamaki a really cute little village. I was privileged enough to have a room that not only overlooked the pool but I could also enjoy a sea view. The room while basic was pretty good, the aircon worked well, there was a TV and fridge and it was cleaned every day. The bathroom was very basic but still functional it does take some getting used to using a shower without walls or curtain but I soon got used to it, a hairdryer might have been nice. The staff are lovely and very helpful and the breakfast is pleasant, it's only a short walk to the beach or to the main shopping area where there are plenty of wonderful restaurant's to choose from, there are also travel agents that will assist with any excursions that you may require. If you're looking for a pleasant economical stop then don't pass this one by.

Perfect for 1 or 2 nights
When traveling through Crete, this hotel is perfectly fine for 1 or 2 nights. The family who manages this hotel was quite friendly and accomidating. There is a restaurant right on the premises, however, there are several restaurants right near the hotel as well. The beach is right across the street, but if you prefer a pool, there is one right on the property. Parking is off-street, and not on the premises. Shower is in the middle of the bathroom, and not in an enclosed space, so everything does get wet.
