Elotis Suites

Elotis is an nice little hotel. We really appreciated that housekeeping kept it very clean. Staff was most kind and helpful. Since its a small hotel, staff recognizes you and all receptionist, gardener, bartender nods and say hello when you leave or enter hotel area. Hotel is close to local road where there is continous traffic by cars and buses during day, but we were not disturbed very much by that. Hotel is just 75 meters from the beach (its a fine beach) and close to at good supermarket. The only minus was that only greek tv channels was shown and that there was no free wifi available. The long sand beach was very nice and water was chrystal clear and clean. This was our first visit to Greece and Crete. It was a bit disappointing. Food in Chania area was boring and tasted nothing. Yes, its a tourist area but compared to similar areas in Spain and Turkey - it was cooked with little fantasy and spirit. Also the tourist areas looked liked you were moved to the seventies. Nothing has happened. Shops and beach bars with ugly signs and similar mechandise. Tourist information office in Chania was a joke. They took little or no interest in helping tourist. For example - I asked if there was an open market i Chania and the lady just replied I dont know and turned her attention back to the pc. So for anyone going to this part of Crete I really can recommend Elotis hotel, but I would not recommend Greece/Crete as a tourist country.
