Good location, ideal for a short stay
The Elina Apartments are in a good location near the beach but also close to the old town. It was about a 20 minute walk from the bus station along a straight road. The down stairs bar was obviously a hang out for men who like to watch sport! Across the road there was a nice bakery which was idea for breakfast. The apartment was clean, a nice shower with basic equipment for cooking. It was good value for money and suited out needs well.

Large two bedroom family apartment. Very close to the centre. You can find everything in the neighberhood, restaurants, cafes supermarkets, pastry shops, etc. The staff was very friendly. I strongly recommend this hotel apartments. With or without kids it's the ideal choice.

Nice hotel but some flaws
Nice hotel, close to amenities, studio apartments are decorated OK however basic kit is missing from the apartments, eg only one pan, no washing up kit, so the stay resembles more camping than self-catering. It's not a major drawback and I hope they can include a bit more pans and washing-up kit in the hotel rooms to make it perfect.

Great location and spacious apartments
This hotel seems to previously been an apartment building and recently renovated. Large apartments for an excellent price. We reserved a family room but the first one given to us had a problem with the air conditioning. After some moving around (which wasn't a hassle) we settled into a large two bedroom apartment with kitchenette, living room but just ok wifi (all for same price of course). Breakfast (extra charge) was good and plenty to choose from. Bathrooms are nicely updated. Great location to walk around city center and limani (water front and old town). Very friendly staff and would definitely stay again. No complaints on our one night stop over and could see ourselves being comfortable longer.

Good base, close to the beach.
Firstly it's the only place I've stayed in where I was given a welcome note and bottle of wine, I'm easily pleased!! The hotel location is good, it's about a 3 minute walk from the beach and 8 minutes to Old Town. The kitchenette area in our room was very small and basic so we used it only for breakfasts, the pool area is small (3 beds) but clean and tidy and the bar is well priced with a small snack food menu available. These apartments are well priced and ideal for using as a base, the staff were friendly and helpful at all times. The only negative would be the smoking in the bar..but then again everywhere we went in Crete smoking was allowed so I won't hold that against them!

Great place!
Backpacking, we opted for this place because of the kitchenette and cheap rate. We were more than pleased, the people at the front desk were super friendly and spoke english quite well. Although this isn't a requirement for us it was a nice change to not have to use hand signals and whatnot to check in or ask questions. The room was very spacious, it had a coffee maker, fridge and two burners with pots/cutlery/etc. First bathtub we have seen here in greece so no water on the floor after showering! Since it is the low season we're pretty sure they gave us the best room, top floor on the corner had an upper loft and big balcony. Seemed like they genuinely wanted us to have a nice stay, which we did. Lots of places to eat and grocery stores around, can see the water from the location. I would recommend any of my friends or family to stay here.

Spacious
Rented for one night in the low season. It was great value, the rooms are basically one-bedroom apartments. There's a small balcony, small kitchen corner with an electric range, lots of floor space in the main room. There was a couch in the main room with a matress tucked underneath. The bathroom was more western than any budget hotel I've stayed at thus far, allowing at last for a comfortable standing-up shower with proper shower curtain etc. There's a internet cafe / coffee house on the ground floor. Don't get too excited about the pool, it's miniscule. The main bed was just two single beds put side by side. I believe I rented a room for single occupancy, so I'm not sure if all the rooms have beds like this or not.
