Sadly I did not have a great experience with Giannis or his property.
Prior to my arrival I was under the impressions that Giannis would be at the property to greet me, he gave me no instruction to indicate that he would not be there.
I was travelling alone and arrived by taxi, the property looked derelict, there was no sign of life and no instructions for me as to how to access my room.
Thankfully I had a lovely taxi driver who stayed with me whilst I contacted Giannis only to find out that he was not going to be there and that the key was in the door of the apartment.
Access to my room was up a makeshift and in my opinion, unsafe, staircase and thankfully the taxi driver helped me with my suitcase.
Upon entering the apartment there was nothing to welcome me, not a bottle of water in the fridge or any indication that I could drink the tap water, there was no hot water and no instruction as to how to turn on the hot water, when I contacted Giannis he gave me a number of a service agent in Athens, who didn't pick up until I had rung 3 three times.
There was no map of the area of any information to welcome me to the property or to Chania - Know this isn't compulsory, but it's a nice touch.
The toilet seat was broken and when I told Giannis he said it would have to wait until he returned from his trip.
There is a nice outdoor seating area, with candle holders, but no candles, just the remains of old candles, when I asked Giannis if there were any candles he said no because of the time of year.
When I got into bed, the sheets and pillowcases were clean, but the duvet cover was dirty, it had blood stains and mould on it. When I told Giannis about this he told me to leave the property the next morning by 1100, which I did.
This is not a 'Luxury' apartment, it is a nice apartment. The photos do not show that the front of the building or the staircase leading up to the property. The small window in the main bedroom opens onto a derelict building full of pigeons, so impossible to have the window open and the bathroom is tiny.
Giannis was not a good host. His communication and his attitude were not good, But I am glad that he suggested I leave. I found a wonderful apartment, with a wonderful host and I had a great holiday.
