Katrina's place in old town Chania is fascinating and beautiful, the pictures really do not do justice. However, there are some areas for improvement.
What's good: Central location in old town. A beautiful and unique home with varied decor, stocked with amenities, comfortable beds, and air conditioning. The rooftop patio is nice for relaxing. It is clear that Katerina tried hard to make us feel at home.
Needs improvement: It should be made clear that this is not a quiet place. There are people walking the pedestrian street outside all night long, and they're noisy. Also, the street lights stay on all night and the curtains do not block it. Within the home the stairs get very steep and tight, especially to get to laundry and the rooftop. I hit my head and almost fell and I'm very physically able. There is no mention of any of these things in the description and there should be so people know what to expect. Finally, we we're surprised to find the housekeeper present upon returning on the second to last day without advance notice. While this is an honest mistake, there was no message from our host which could have easily avoided the confusion and awkwardness.
In summary, this is a wonderful place for the right people. Those who are heavy sleepers and enjoy the throng of tourists, for those who want the old town harbor experience (shopping, food, historic), and those who are physically fit with no children this will be perfect.
