Nikos let me check in a full three hours early, for which I was extremely grateful. The location of the flat can't be beat; it tucked away in a lovely little alley, very close to the waterfront, and right next to a bunch of little shops and restaurants. Nikos also took the time to recommend a number of local restaurants, two of which we visited and thoroughly enjoyed (including Tamam, which is literally a two minute walk away). The flat is about a 10-15 walk to the beach and a 5 minute walk to the bus station. On our final day, we asked Nikos if we could stow our luggage somewhere after checking out at 11am so we could have lunch somewhere before heading out, but Nikos generously let us extend our stay a few extra hours to save us the trouble. Overall, I would highly recommend this space to anyone visiting Chania.
