The communication with Heike (via AirBnB) was good, she replied very fast, but when we arrived at the property, we had some difficulties communicating with Ioannis, the owner, as he doesn't speak English very well. He seems a nice guy, but there was a lack of communication with him (we didn't get any recommendations about restaurants or the surroundings).The place has a nice garden where you can relax and there is enough space for parking. There is hot water that you need to turn on (Ioannis showed us how to do that).
What we didn't like about Elena studio:
- The wifi was super bad, we were using mostly mobile data.
- The bed felt very uncomfortable.
- The bathroom had a funny smell (seems that the main room has been renovated, but not the bathroom)
- During the night the wind was very strong and the bathroom door kept
creaking waking us up since we closed it because of the smell.
- The washing machine took longer to finish than scheduled and we had to wait way longer for it (also it is very noisy) and pay attention to the hose, you need to put that in the WC otherwise it will flood the bathroom.
We spent 2 weeks in Crete in 4 different AirBnBs and this one we enjoyed the least. Too expensive considering the services and the location.
