The house was very clean and thoroughly empty of small stuff, making perfect for a family with two small kids not having to run around all the time to prevent the kids from smushing some small vases or statutes or small decoration etc. Instead, the apartment contained a lot of books and toys for kids and it was really thoughtful from the owner to ask us beforehand what would we need to better serve our needs with the kids. The place was very close to a main Chania street, that led to both the center of the city and to many beaches pretty easily by car. The neighborhood was very quiet and in walking distance there were shops open 24/7 with everything a family would need (even fresh groceries at 2:00 am!). We had a great time
