Staying at Manousos’ was literally the best airbnb experience we have ever had. It was like staying in an old friend’s house. He was always available, making sure we had everything we needed, giving us advice for restaurants and places to visit, telling us all about the history of Chania, and even offering to go with us to the local market and showing us a lot of delicious Crete produce.
The apartment itself is beautiful and authentic, with lots of paintings and art books, all while keeping all the comfort you would expect from the best Airbnbs, like a comfortable bed and shower and brand new air conditioning. It also has full privacy from the rest of the house as there is a full floor to ceiling divider on the hallway (which you need to go through for about half a meter to go from the living room to the bedroom).
In terms of location, the house could not be more central, and it was never more than a 5 or 10 minute walk away from everything we wanted to see in Chania, and at the same time, it’s in a small romantic street, with no noise during the night.
But what we will remember the most is definitely the wonderful host that is Manousos. We 100% recommend staying in his house.
