Nico was amazing!! He was helpful, friendly. When the AC wasn't working, he came up immediately and fixed the problem. The location is good for old town and lots of things walkable. And even if the room is dated a bit, this property is still worth the nightly rate.
The beach near here isn't the greatest.
L’accueuil, la gentillesse, l’aide ainsi que les infos ont été excellentes!!!!!
Très très près de l’eau, en plein coeur de la vieille ville!!! Suuuper!!! Merci!!!!
Location, is key. Though parking was a stated as free, it was street parking. Little bit of an interesting drive. If you aren't use to driving on small European streets just be careful. Otherwise great place to stay.
The owner of the hotel was super nice. He offered us pickled anchovies he bought from a local fisherman and homemade Cretan raki as a welcome gesture. He was super helpful with tips about Chania. I'd go to that hotel anytime for this guy. Such a pleasure.

Oddio la 105,
Attenti alla camera 105, direttamente nella hall e nel bar, potete immaginare i rumori. Per non farci mancare niente la finestra dava direttamente sul marciapiedi della strada di ingresso all'Hotel.
Perfect for our needs, fabulous location, a simple comfy hotel room, no frills, reasonably priced. We diidn't need any frills - if you want frills and want to spend time in your hotel, then I would recommend you spend a whole lot more money and get one of the fancy ones.
This is very reasonably priced, and for anybody that's simply wants to run as a place to sleep keep that stuff bathed in the morning in a nice clean and comfortable environment, and spend the rest of the time out enjoying the wonderful local offerings, this is a perfect hotel.
Gutes Hotel, gute Lage, kostenloser Parkplatz in der Nähe

Hotel essenziale ma pulito e ottima posizione
Hotel essenziale ma pulito, situato in ottima posizione, a piedi si raggiungono tutti i punti fondamentali della città, specialmente il centro storico è il porto veneziano.
Personale disponibile, hanno pensato loro ad organizzarmi il noleggio dell'auto direttamente in hotel.
Far away from bus stand not walking distance
Owner unfriendly, average place very pricy
Room was very small . Nothing to talk about place
There are other much cheaper places than this one half the price than this one and much nicer , we explored the island and found out much nicer hotels close to town and walking distance to bus station
I won't recommend it
Compact family hotel nicely placed within 20yards of the sea front and a short stroll to the town centre. Rooms are very clean and tidy although the bathrooms are rather small. The hotel owner is very welcoming and extremely helpful. We both thoroughly enjoyed our week long stay there and would definitely return.

Cosy, great location and very helpful hotel
Very helpful owner helped us with all information we required about bus stops to the airport , eating out and even gave us a map. The room was comfortable, the owner upgraded us as there weren't any of the other rooms left which was great. I would say , the upstairs made noises all night , unfortunately the furniture needs pads on the legs etc so when people move furniture it doesn't make a disturbing noise. Hence didn't have a great sleep due to the upstairs noise. Otherwise a terrific hotel right on budget in a great location.
Det var underbart resa. Chania is underbar stad. Människor är vänliga, korrekta och alltid redo att hjälpa. Vi kände trygghet och njöt både mat och vädret. Havet är rent och bekväm särskild för barn. Många attraktioner tex beach Balos ( som är mellan vackraste i världen.
Very convenient location close to the harbour and all the restaurants. The room was lovely and they had no problems storing a bike.
The only negative was a nasty altercation with the managers father because I paid via hotel.com and insisted I should pay cash.
Pieni, kiva hotelli sopivan etäällä vanhasta kaupungista, jonne kävellen muutama minuutti. Rauhallinen paikka, viereiset talot eivät ehkä ole kaikkein nätimpiä, mutta sen ei kannata häiritä.Mereen parikymmentä metriä. Lähin uimaranta parin sadan metrin päässä. Ranta on valvomaton, kapea suikale rantabulevardin ja meren välissä.Ravintoloihin/baareihin parikymmentä metriä meren suuntaan. Nämä baarit on kivoja siinäkin mielessä, että niissä käy enimmäkseen paikallisia, jos turistien katselu väsyttää. Aamiainen testattu vain ekana aamuna, oli hieman pettymys, pelkkää vehnää erimuodoissa. Kannattanee käydä muualla aamiaisella, vaikka noissa lähibaareissa, joissa se pikkasen halvempaakin. Tosi kiva ja puhelias isäntä hotellilla, töissä myös vanhemmat. Myöhäinen sisäänkirjaus hotelliin aamuyöstä onnistui hyvin etukäteen sopimalla.Huoneessa ilmastointi ja jääkaappi, joiden hurina voi ärsyttää arkakorvaa. Netti toimi hyvin. Huoneissa ei ole tallelokeroa. Menisin uudelleenkin.
