Penelopi Rooms — Hotel in Municipality of Chania

We found the HEART of Chania at a reception desk at Penelope rooms. Athina you are an absolute star and this is my honest review. A humble block of apartments where the highest standard of cleanliness and fresh smelling laundry awaits you. This is a comfortable place where you can experience the joys of being in Chania, let your hair down and not fuss about having to dress up. It is all about a stroll on Nea Chora beach, literally a stone’s throw away and walking barefoot back into the room. Rooms are equipped with A/C, a fridge and a TV, WIFI was great. We had a lovely balcony from which I could hear the rumble of the waves. There is a great coffee shop in the corner overlooking the beach, a great substitute for a hotel breakfast lounge or meeting point and a bakery just behind the property with the most amazing coffee and breakfast goodies. This is ideal for beach lovers who prefer being close to the sea and then walk into the old town which is only a 15 minute pleasant walk away or a €5 taxi ride. There are also many restaurants along the beach to suit everyone’s taste and budget. Do not...

Athina the owner is an absolute sweetheart, welcoming and lovely. The location is perfect - 30 seconds from Nea Chora beach with its cute tavernas and bars, and 10/15 minutes walk from the old town. The room was perfect for a solo traveller - cosy, comfortable single bed, large wardrobe space and a cute little balcony. There’s also a kettle and fridge provided along with cutlery, plate and cups. ||The en-suite bathroom was fine, but the shower space is very small so you’re essentially showering over the toilet, and as it’s a wet room, everything gets soaked. I was scared of flooding the room and having the water flow out into the bedroom but this doesn’t happen so no need to worry! Also, the air conditioner leaks onto the balcony so you’ll end up with a big puddle if it’s left on.||All in all, a great stay and definitely recommended! Thanks...

😊: Very clean, refrigerator in the room, A/C perfectly working and strong wifi signal. There's a balcony, and the flat is literally one minute from the beach and some lovely bars and restaurants. Recommended, especially for a few days.. 😢: Very basic room: very few toiletries, no instant coffee despite the presence of a kettle and a mug , no hairdryer, no bedside lamp. The shower takes some getting used to as you keep fearing the whole room might be flooded ( but it doesn't!). The only issue I actually experienced was the noise from the street: works going on in the building just across but also the occasional occupier next door slamming the door and keeping the radio on.. none of this is the owner's fault, and to be honest, I didn't bring this up with her when I was there. I would still...
