The apartment matched the pictures exactly and was therefore even better than we expected, as you sometimes find that photos don't tell the whole story, but not in this case. It was great being so close to the old town (10 mins walk), to the beach (4 mins). But be aware that being so close to these places, means you are in the town, and there is some road noise but it didn't worry us unduly and we loved being in amongst the Cretan houses and seeing their way of life. We were welcomed with traditional Greek food and drink by Antonis's parents who were very kind. Brilliant restaurant with good food and moderate prices, 7 mins walk away, called Christiana's, (go to beach, turn left, walk for a few minutes and it's the first restaurant in the parade of restaurants that you see going towards the large stone outcrop.) We had a brilliant holiday and adored Chania.
