Good Location!
The place has a great location, middle of downtown, few minutes to the Venetian Port. The apartment is functional but the furniture is old and show that. Good space for two ppl but not more. The bathroom definitely needs remodeling and is crowded. I think they save money buying the cheapest furniture, appliances, bedding, etc. We park in the street and we’re able to find space nearby.

Great location, good apartment, friendly owner
The apartment was located at a very central point of Chania. A few minutes walk from the popular pedestrian path. The apartment was clean and had all the facilities needed to live there for many days. Even a washing machine! The balcony was very big and nice to sit there. If you own a car, it may take some time to find some parking at the street. The owner was very friendly and available to address our requests or questions. Would book again, next time I come to Chania.

Very lovely place to stay in Chania! The apartment was very clean and spacious, with a comfortable bed, and Georgios was very kind and accommodating. The kitchen was also very well equipped with all types of utensils, but would be great if it had salt, pepper and sugar included in the kitchen too. Location wise - it was a good location and within walking distance from the bus stop and the nearby attractions. Would definitely stay here again next time I’m in Chania (-:

Perfect place to stay
Perfect location, just 2 mins walk to the K-Tel bus station with buses that goes to many places outside of Chania. Did not have a car so buses were very convenient, reliable, and combined with Anendyk ferries an economical way to travel in Crete. Georgios, the owner was very helpful, knowledgeable, kind and approachable which made our 2 weeks stay in Chania very enjoyable. Room cleaned daily and kitchen came with complimentary Cretan olive oil, wine and rake which we enjoyed. Love Crete and its friendly locals, beaches, food, scenic views of mountain and sea, historical monasteries, beautiful alleys for strolling and not so crowded in May. Thanks from Toronto, Canada.

Good location and great host
Georgio the owner is very responsive to all my questions and emails. He waited for me at 12am due to my late flight. I appreciate that. Alena apartment is a few minutes walk from the bus station which makes it easy for my transportation between the airport and Chania town center. The only drawback was the street noise. Other than that, everything was great staying at Alena. A well equipped kitchen gave me the flexibility to prepare my breakfast. Overall it's a nice place to stay.

central location, spotless clean, home from home!
I could not recommend the Alena apartments enough. George made us feel so welcome; There was wine and water left in our apartment when we arrived as well as a map of the area and lots of local information and advice on where to eat. The apartments is two minutes away from the bus station so if you go up the coast for the day, you are back to the apartment minutes after you get back. The cleaner came in every day, fresh towels every day and sheets most days. I would advise booking the deluxe apartment as we had a huge veranda with sun loungers and seating and the sun was strong in the afternoons. The venetian harbour is about 8 minutes walk away and is so beautiful. Overall I would return to the Alena Apartments and would definitely recommend them. We stayed 11 nights and thoroughly enjoyed it.

The hotel (more of an apartment) was gorgeous and clean! It was spacious and nicely equipped with a full kitchen and a washing machine. The location was also great - 1min away from the bus station and a 5-min walk to the harbour. There are a ton of restaurants and supermarkets and shops around. The owner, Georges was so friendly and helpful. This was our second time in Chania ... wish we had stayed here the first time too. Will definitely come back!
