“The location within the old town is ideal, making it easy to explore Chania's attractions. What stands out is the unique accommodation housed in a building with historical significance, plus the gracious hospitality noted by many. I think this property is particularly well-suited for families interested in both cultural experiences and a relaxing stay.”
