Firstly, location, location, location! The Monk rooms are in a perfect, cute and quiet position in the old town, tucked away just a few metres from the fabulous shops and restaurants. Tammy and A were super helpful and responsive to us and helped print documents for our onward travel. The room itself is great for a couple but a bit of a tight squeeze for 3 adults (sofa converts to a large bed). There is no kitchenette in the apartment/room, which we were a little frustrated at given the lack of clarity and the fact there was a photo of a kitchen in the listing (the photo was actually of a shared kitchen on the top floor up a very steep staircase). We did have a kettle, and a very small bar fridge, but had hoped for and expected some small kitchenette facility. The town of Chania is fabulous, and for a well priced, super clean and responsive / helpful stay - I would recommend monk rooms, just be mindful of the stairs to access which is noted in the description and the lack of private kitchen if this is important for you. We ate at many places, (A provided a great set of recommendations too) but Throumbi, Salis (amazing!) and ginger concept (breakfast) were our highlights… so many fabulous bars and cool places to explore… go with space in your luggage!!!
