The listing was accurate and everything was as described. What the picture doesn't show is the amazing view of islands and mountains in the far distance - which was truly stunning. We spent a lot of time on the balcony, which was mostly in glorious shade (good considering the heat of the sun), and bigger than it looks in the photo.

Nikos was a great and generous host - we arrived an hour early and there was no problem, and he was very kind in offering us help and checking everything was OK.

The apartment is in a great location although just outside the centre of Chania, and the walk has some dark-ish sections. It didn't feel dangerous however, and there are several route options to walk to Chania centre, which only takes 10-15 minutes. The immediate neighbourhood was very pleasant with some nearby bars where we could go for a late night drink.

We would definitely come again - great value, great apartment!
