Joli appartement, bien équipé et propre.. Il a un grand balcon et un parking. Il est au calme tout en étant proche de la ville. Lena est une personne soucieuse du bien-être de ses hôtes et qui fait tout ce qu'elle peut pour que l'on se sente comme à la maison. Nous avons beaucoup apprécié notre séjour chez Lena Catherine et Allen

"Your Home away from Home"

9.0

Lena’s hospitality is a force of nature. She green-lit an early check-in, helped with a 1am check-out for a ghastly red-eye, and greeted us with her own olive oil, home-made jam, and a squad of baby toys ready to entertain our baby. WhatsApp, her preferred mode of communication, was always answered promptly. The flat itself is spotless, charmingly equipped, and on a lane so quiet you can hear your own thoughts—a ten-minute bus ride from the city’s hum. The shaded terrace was a real bonus, perfect for whenever we chose to dine in. Lena's hospitality seems to be a true vocation for her, a core component of her warm personality. Because of this, she can take requests for privacy quite personally, and our attempts to explain our preference didn't seem to fully bridge the gap. This created a bit of gentle pressure, made all the more potent because we genuinely liked her and didn't want to cause disappointment. We had some friendly back-and-forth clarifying an amenity in the listing, but Lena ended up providing exactly what we needed, and we were very happy with the resolution. She is an incredibly generous person. In sum, this is a place for those who value a genuine, family-like connection over the transactional distance of a hotel. If you thrive on warm personalities and don't mind navigating a little emotional terrain, you will be delighted. And yes, you can expect plenty of gifts.

Different cross cultural - well intended on both sides - expectations created tiny misunderstandings here and there.

"Lena was the perfect host, always concerned about our comfort."

10.0

Location was great, close to the beach and small shops for eating. There is a free parking spot if you rented a car and also the internet was very very fast. Lena was the perfect host, always concerned about our comfort and was always available by call or text to answer questions. She gave us homemade jam, chocolate spread, cookies, and olive oil from her own gardens upon arrival. Would recommend for any visitor.

10.0

Lena was a very hospitable and welcoming host, we enjoyed everything. We were staying together with my friend in Lena's appartment. Lena welcomed us at the checkin which was late at night around 23 pm. She left some homemade olive oil and chocolate pasta for us, along with some snacks to enjoy, plus left some recommendations on where to go sightseeing, what beaches to visit, and where it's best to try local food. The home is located in a quiet district of Halepa close to the seaside but further from the city center, so it was quiet at night. The appartment is spacious equipped with everything needed. We enjoyed the terrace, which is big and enjoyable to have a meal or a cup of coffe at. It was not hot during the day in the appartment, we even did not switch on the AC. There is an elevator in the building so you don't have to carry your luggage up or down the stairs that was super helpful. Upon the checkout Lena left us some homemade local orange pie which was delicious.

"A really lovely relaxing stay at Sweet Home Lena"

10.0

We spent two fabulous weeks at Sweet Home Lena. Our host was kind, generous with her time and gave us some lovely Cretan treats. The olive oil from her olive trees was amazing and truly delicious. Lena showed us around the local area and took us to a beautiful cafe for coffee and cake. Her communication was excellent. The Apartment itself was in a quiet location and was clean, well equipped and homely. Within a 5 minute walk there is a bakery for daily bread , cakes, coffee and an abundance of sweet treats. There is also a good delicatessen for cheeses, meats and groceries, 3 supermarkets and some very good restaurants. A bus stop ( no 11) is close by that takes you into Chania old town for €2, or it is only a 20 minute walk along the beach. Sweet Home Lena was a perfect choice for stay in Chania and we would highly recommended it to others.

Nothing.

"Best start of our holiday in Crete"

9.0

Fully equipped apartment, with all the comforts and tools (“real” kitchen, washing machine, high speed internet suitable for remote working…). Useful private and shadowed parking. Very nice position, close to venetian port with tavernas and bars. 20/25 minutes walk to the city center (more crowded and commercial). The owner Lena’s been very kind and provided us with good suggestions for our visit.

Nothing to report, I would definitively choose again!

"Amazing holiday!"

10.0

I came home from a beautiful holiday in Chania, me and my friend stayed at Lena´s apartment, where we really felt like home. On the day of arrival Lena, who is a very friendly and kind person waited for us and provided us food, snacks and also local drink of Chania, which tastes very good, similar to "Raki". Lena was very welcoming and she provided us with everything we needed for a perfect holiday, also with the recommendations what to visit, where to eat, where to order food, ... She also had her home made olive oil in her kitchen, which I liked very much (Crete is known for olive oil and her olive oil is very good!). The appartment is spacious, it has a big balcony, which we liked a lot (great place to chill, to eat breakfastand enjoy the evenings). Lena even offered us to come and change the bed sheets and towels, which was very nice. The apartment kitchen has everything, also the bathroom, one big plus is that a parking space is in front of the building and is covered, so it protects the car from the sun and heat. The location of the appartment is very good, you can reach the city center and the old town on foot. To reach it even faster, we drove with our car about 4 minutes to Villa Koundouros, where a free parking is possible on the street. We were very happy with our trip to Chania, thank you Lena for everything! :)

"Feel at home apartment with a fantastic host"

10.0

The first and the biggest thing I have to mention here is that with this accommodation you don't just get the room but also a great host, Lena! We arrived a bit later than the agreed time (we even moved the time once) and Lena had no issues with it, and she patiently waited for us. Even though we arrived around 10PM she was more than happy to run us through everything she thought we would need to know about the neighbourhood, Chania, and the surroundings and with all our questions this lasted up until 12AM :) In addition to being a fantastically positive and charismatic person she is also a great cook and has amazing olive oil! She left homemade Cretan pastries, chocolate cream, honey, and limoncello (no need to say but they were amazing!) for us. The apartment is very well equipped, very clean, and has everything to make you feel at home even for longer stays. In addition, internet connection is great and there is a small table you could use to work if needed as well as a big balcony for sunny days. She was available throughout our stay with suggestions where to go and what to try (you should listen to her suggestions as they were all a hit for us, especially nearby homemade food from Mamas and a small secret caffe :) ). We really enjoyed our stay at Lena's place and we will definitively come back when we plan Chania as our next destination.

There is nothing not to like!
