Chania Caravan is a great value option walkable from town. Took me 20 mins once I got to know the route. Eleni is there to welcome and help out with suggestions and instructions. Caravan is very small and really ideal for 1 person. I didn't bother to shower there as there are showers on the beach where I swam every day. And it just looked too cramped. Apart from that I just made tea and enjoyed the Raki for a nightcap. I would stay again esp if on my own.
The bus service is excellent and so are Smart Tours at the bus station in town and great value. No need here to add extra traffic congestion in Chania with another vehicle.
All in all great choice.
