The House of Joy was just that for us during our one month stay in Chania. The apartment is spacious, comfortable, beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. The kitchen is fully equipped with nice appliances and utensils. The bathroom is modern with a fabulous shower. We only used one of the two bedrooms, the bed was comfortable and there was tons of closet space.
We enjoyed the location in a typical neighbourhood where an large open market was held every Wednesday at the corner of the street. There is a view of the White Mountains from the balcony. The Venetian Port is a short walk away as is a great beach where we swam almost daily until the end of October. The central bus station is very close with service to almost anywhere one would want to travel to on Crete.
Communication was excellent with the family who treated us with kindness and generosity. We fell in love with them all - especially Grandma who lives on the main floor.
There is a great bakery a block away and an amazing family taverna close by. There are many supermarkets conveniently located in the area.
