We were disappointed by this apartment. The terrace and view are great, as well as communication with the host. Chania (a great Cretan city) is easily reachable by car. Proximity to the airport is a mixed bag. It is 10 minutes by car, but the planes are loud. We were expecting this. However, there were unexpected negatives. There are stray dogs in the area which bark throughout the night. The beach is close, but hard to reach by foot. The apartment building is still under construction. The apartment itself is still not quite finished. There are electrical lines sticking out of the wall. The kitchen is so badly equipped that is barely useable. One tiny pan and one extra large pot can only be used on an old electric stove top. A lot of kitchen utensils are missing, there isn't even a proper cutting knife or board. The fridge is really loud and the noise it makes fills the whole apartment entirely. In general the apartment is not clean. This would be a passable bare minimum apartment, but for the price we expected much more.
