Overall this was a great experience! We came to Crete to explore the beautiful famous beaches and this location was perfect for that! We were there for three days- and went to elafonisi, balos and falassarna beaches, and then also went into chania old town one night. We had four people and although it was tight, we managed it perfectly as we were there only to sleep and shower. The view out the window is perfect. There is truly nothing at all around but if you have a car (which you must) it's not a problem. The area seems a bit abandoned but it might be because we were there during an off season (in May). It was nice that our room was cleaned each day- an added bonus that we aren't used to with airbnbs. Honestly you can't beat it for the price you pay. A nice place to sleep at night before exploring the island!
