We stayed at the apartment for 6 nights at the end of June. The view of the harbour is stunning especially in the morning. We felt very very comfortable and safe at the apartment, which is on the top floor in the family home. The apartment is very spacious and the large balcony facing the harbour is a real treat. You should like being in the middle of the busiest tourist spots of Chania. It does get very full with people and lively in the evening. The advantage is that you have the old harbour and all restaurants and bars right at your doorstep. We did not get to meet John but his communication on airbnb was excellent and always prompt. Finding parking can be a real challenge but we got a hang of it in the end. It was a great holiday staying at John's apartment!
