Even though I didn't get to meet Lena in person, she is one of the most gracious Airbnb hosts I've encountered. She went to great lengths to facilitate an early check-in, provided snacks and brought by some of her own homemade chocolate pudding, and kindly checked in regularly. The apartment itself is simple, nice and clean. Wifi was fast and good for work from home, and the balcony is a nice place to eat or work. The only thing I would say is that you should have a motorbike or car to stay in this area. I had planned to rent a car but was unable to find any at half a dozen agencies (I found out later that Lena herself could organize a rental), so I ended up walking to/from the apartment to the old port and downtown Chania. It can be a bit of a walk -- I found to get to the old port it took about 25-30 minutes of walking. Some relatively nice city beaches as well as a supermarket are closer, about 10-15 minutes. There is not much happening in Halepa itself nor many food options, but the Eleftherios Venizelos house (worth checking out) is only about 5 minutes away and there is a good Greek grill called Ribeat also very closeby. Overall, if you have a car and want to use this as a base for traveling around western Chania region, it's a great value with a wonderful host.
