“Kitsch”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 September 2011

We recently stayed in Chania as part of our Greece/Turkey trip. We stayed in the Ifigenia rooms and suites because the location was ideal and the pictures seemed ok.

Our arrival was at 1am at night and if you plan to arrive this late it's a good idea to get the help of taxi. People are very friendly in Chania and thankfully a local called our hotel for us and the owner arrived by bike to let us in.

The room (12) had a kitchen, jacuzzi ( with free wine), a shower and small bedroom.I was disgusted, the bathroom, although clean was leaking and the shower was awkward enough to require acrobatics.the bed sheets were too small and the blanket was not sufficient.

All I can say is that the staff is friendly, the free breakfast is good, especially the fresh orange juice and the food in Chania is so good that you'll quickly forget about the gross room you are staying in at night.

Hey it's so cheap you can enjoy the delicious food and splurge.

“Didn't like it - will never go back”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 July 2011

We stayed in a room on the ground floor which had a number of issues. First of all the room suffers from a style / identity crisis. Gothic influences combined with a jacuzzi tub in the main room, hanging tables and a canopy bed with a tired mattress don't mix very well. The bathroom is extremely small, requiring elaborate gymnastics to use the toilet given that it is squeezed next to the sink and the shower. The toilet bin was old and broken requiring handling by hand. The jacuzzi tub in practice would be a pain to use because it would create splashing which would wet the carpeting and bedding in the room.

The main door of the apartment could not be locked form the inside requiring that we put a chair against the door on the inside just like in the movies.

There was a lot of noise from the outside, including annoying tourists that confused our room with theirs and they were trying to get in multiple times. The room did not have any view.

Lastly the owner/manager just cared to collect the payment in cash (without giving a receipt of course) and we never saw him again.

On the positive side, the room came with a complimentary bottle of wine and raki which we did not take advantage of. The location is excellent, very close to the port of the old town.

Bottom line - try to find a better place in the old town which will over better value and fewer issues.

Room Tip: Avoid ground floor rooms.

Dear sir.

Very Romantic ! if you wish you could have contact with her.

As for the door does not close from inside becuase when the guess made check out
any time they left the keys there and we can not open from out side.

Thank you in advance for your opinion.

“nice suites, but NOISY and a RUDE owner”

our suite had a nice canopy bed and a whirlpool. BUT BEWARE: the place is located above a bar, which was playing very lound music way after midnight. when i finally went downstairs around 2 in the morning, the bar was empty, only the staff were there and they were kind enough to turn down the volume. the next morning i mentioned this to the owner who called me a liar and said there was no noise. STAY AWAY.

I travel 4 two weeks the crete, my last 3days I spend to this place. I had 1traditional studio as they 'called' was on the 2floor like you go into lighthouse 1of the personel hepled me. 55€ bb was perfect . The location around whith tavernas shops and the beach only 200m for me i was singel just fine. I would recommended this studio i could not say for the sea view as my room was in a narrow st.30m fron the harbor. Just remember to this hotel belongs 6 houses.
