Amazing hotel with extremely friendly staff. My only criticism is the size of the sofa beds, I am 188cm tall and could not stretch out. Other than that, perfect.

Folia hotel apartments was very well kept, clean, newly renovated and everything was in good working order. They had a very nice breakfast buffet everyday for 10 euros. The pool area was clean and beautiful. We paid 3 euros/day to park our car. The driveway up was steep and the parking spot a bit tight, but everything worked out great. We even had a little patio area out back for eating and viewing the sea. The owners and staff were very nice and helpful. We highly recommend this hotel.

It's a somewhat older property, but very well maintained, and the management is helpful and friendly. Buffet breakfast can be purchased at the hotel for 6 euro per person per day if taken for the whole of your stay, or 8 euro per person per day if used occasionally. The buffet is modest but reasonable for the cost. On-site parking must be reserved by contacting the Folia management directly after you make your booking on Expedia. The pathway to the parking spaces is quite tight, and requires expertise in maneuvering. About four additional spaces (usually occupied) are available on the small street directly outside the hotel. Parking is easy and abundant on the cross street 50 meters below the hotel (Ioannis Kapodistrias). It's a 200m walk to the main street of Agia Marina where frequent buses run to central Chania, and also to the Alexandra supermarket. The beach is another 150m beyond that. Overall, it's a great value and we had an excellent stay -- buffet breakfast, quick swim at the hotel, drive all over western Crete in a rented car, with seafood dinner in some small town, and back for a quick swim in the evening.

Our family stayed in Folia for a week, and enjoyed our stay very much. The hotel was spotless clean, the stuff was helpful ( the a/c unit that wasn't working was replaced within hours), and the food in the restaurant was great. The hotel is situated close enough to the beach, but uphill, and it took us a couple of days to get used to it. Overall, our stay was very pleasant.

The hotel was amazing. Extremely comfortable beds, very clean (sheets and towels changed at least every 2 days). Modern bathroom, constant supply of hot water and the free air conditioning was effective and quiet. Fantastic pool and sun-bed area, good food and a Bar that serves the best cocktails! Most of all the people who run it are lovely and do everything they can to make your holiday the best. Can’t fault it. Highly recommended!! We will definitely go back.
