Guest Reviews
- Philipp (9/5): - Das Zimmer ist groß, geschmackvoll eingerichtet und vom Balkon hat man einen tollen Blick. Nichts
- ADAM (10/5): Niezapomniane wieczory i spacery w nietuzinkowym historycznym miejscu! - Świetna lokalizacja w samym centrum starego miasta. Spacerem można zwiedzić najpiękniejsze rejony miasta. Gustowny wystrój i kompaktowy komfort! Idealny balkonik nad główną historyczną aleją miasta! Bardzo miła i wdzięczna obsługa, klarowna informacja i łatwość uzyskania pomocy! Bardzo polecamy! Niektórym może przeszkadzać w sezonie gwar z ulicy, ale właścicielka wyposażeniu apartamentu przygotowała stopery do spania:-)

- Teodora (9/5): A great stay in the heart of the old town - It's a great place in the heart of the old town, overlooking the pedestrian area. It gets pretty busy and noisy at night, but that's the price to pay to stay in that part of town :) Everything was super clean and comfortable, the wifi is great, and there's free parking close by (by Talos square). Communication with Georgia (the host) was perfect, she was quick to respond to all our questions. Truly a great place if you want to stay in the old town area! If you're a light sleeper, it can be noisy for you, but Georgia provides earplugs.
- Higgins (10/5): What an amazing stay! - Georgia was a fabulous host.
Very central location and spoilt for choice regarding places to go
- Charis (10/5): -
- Ilse Julia L (10/5): Inspiring and relaxing at the same time - I was lucky enough to find this gem during my stay in Chania. The best aspects of this luxurious accommodation is the location and the amazing host. It felt like home and I felt welcome! Nothing to report.
- ro (10/5): -
- Janel (10/5): Amazing host, amazing space, excellent location, would love to stay again! - Would absolutely stay here again!!! Everything was perfect! Very stylish and artful room, very clean, very thoughtful and communicative host, excellent location, excellent amenities such as space, hot water, water/coffee makings available, excellent stay! 10/10!
- Marco Maria (9/5): Camere di charme in centro a Chania - Arredamento industrial chic per questa struttura di poche camere in pieno centro a Chania. Self check-in comodo e veloce. Grande gentilezza e disponibilità della host. Tocco in più: dolcetto di benvenuto e tappi per la notte nel caso nella strada pedonale sottostante ci sia troppo rumore.
- Νίκος (10/5): -
- Linda (10/5): Loved it! - Favela Living Space exceeded my expectations. The room matched the description and photos perfectly, but I was especially impressed by the central location—it was even better than I imagined. Georgia, the manager, was outstanding. My plans changed several times, and she went above and beyond to accommodate me whenever possible. If/when I return to Chania, I’ll hope to stay at Favela Living Space again.
- Olivia (8/5): Overall a great stay, welcoming and friendly host and good location. Thank you! - Great location. Room had a fridge, some water provided on arrival and shower toiletries which was fantastic. The host Georgia was very friendly and helpful via WhatsApp for anything you need. Great value for money. Although a central location, it was very noisy on a night which made it tricky to sleep sometimes. Quite a few ants in the room too.
- Rayna (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect location, lovely apartment❤️
- Bart (10/5): Exceptional - The location in the Old Town
Decoration of the room

Perfect price/quality ratio

- Flavia (9/5): Superb - The place is well located, near the Port of Chania / city center and Georgia is super friendly. We had such a nice stay, surely recommend it. Nothing to complain about.
- Meyer (10/5): Exceptional -
- Loretta (10/5): In the heart of beautiful Chania! - Love the location. The decor is so stylish and romantic in a rustic sort of way.
The bed was very comfortable! Only thing is parking is an issue in this area. So you have to be aware and able to walk with your luggage.
- Bell (10/5): We’d come back! -
- James (10/5): Perfect nights stay for a solo traveller in beautiful accommodation - Everything - I had a late arrival flight into Chania Airport travelling alone and this place was beyond perfect - perfectly located in the centre of the old town right next to the old harbour - beautifully decorated and very peaceful place in a very busy part of the city. In particular the owner Georgia was fantastic and her communication with me prior to my arrival in organising out of hours check in - really exceptional with perfect guidance - everything just impressive and would highly recommend. The only criticism is of myself for only booking one night - I wish I stayed longer thank you
- Miguel (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful room with a fantastic atmosphere, right in the heart of old Chania. Very friendly staff!!🙂✨️👍👍

- Elisa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Baris (5/5): Passable -
- Christina (8/5): Nice stay - The location is perfekt! The bathroom was too small.
- Leonidas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Chrysiida (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -

- Era (9/5): Superb - Location, room, service, cleanliness
- Raisa (10/5): Amazing stay - Very close to the centre, host was very helpful. Everything was clean
- Kieran (10/5): Exceptional - Very central location in the Old Town. Nicely decorated room. Perfect for my 2 night stay.
- Ekaterina (9/5): Superb - "Living space" is absolutely accurate, this is not just a hotel. I stayed in a single room - small and fairly simple. But attention has been paid to all those tiny details that turn a hotel into a cosy place - small snacks, high-quality coffee, porcelain cups (not plastic, yay), books to read, even earplugs (yes, this place can be quite noisy at night, but that's the price to pay when staying in downtown Chania)... The host communicates in a very personal and friendly manner.
- Aurelian (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nick (7/5): Good - The closeness to everything related to the old city; the beautiful high ceiling and heavy wooden doors. The massive balcony for a small place but above all the brief encounter with the lovey owner Georgia.
- Anthony (10/5): We enjoyed our stay but the outside terrace space although lovely could be made even more comfortable with new furniture - Location Noise from street below as very centrally located in the old town.
- Chrysavgi (8/5): Very good -
- Micheal (9/5): Perfect place for a few nights. - The room was clean and comfortable. Georgia was great and a good communicator. Great place to stay would consider visiting again next time i'm in Chania..
- D (9/5): cant wait to come back! - loved the attention to detail and the outside space
- Anna (9/5): Superb - Location very central. Room decor eclectic and stylish. Noise level from street. But host did provide ear plugs! :)
- John (8/5): Very good -
- Cynthia (10/5): Exceptional - A very well located property - at the main road of the old town of Chania leading to the harbour. An amazing host - Georgia always ready to help and to make your stay a very comfotable one. Complemantary water bottles daily. Excellent wifi connection. Highly recommend this property for a short stay in Chania. nothing
- Abir (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vicky (10/5): Great value for money - Great location, very good facilities and well taken care of
- Lois (10/5): This place is in a brilliant location in the absolute middle of the old town. Very quirky decor whic - Not applicable but the room was very close to many cafes and restaurants It included a coffee machine which was a bonus Nothing
- Anna (8/5): Very good - The central location and wifi is great, and the staff was friendly. Easy to checkin The noise and music from the neighborhood
- Merav (10/5): Exceptional - First, the owner of the apartment is available, pleasant and helpful with any request.
Second, the room is located in a very central location and is also very clean, comfortable and tastefully decorated. The room is in a very central place in the old city, so at night there is music from the restaurant outside.
- Alessandro (10/5): Exceptional - The room, the position, the staff
- Federico (9/5): Superb - Everything Music coming from the bar nearby during the night
- Maria (9/5): 1 night stay - nice place but location is nosy, nice for party people :) - location, ownerwelcomed me with all details thru message and also a snack and coffee was ready for me noise, music was until 4 and I could hear it verry well. Also the door- seemed like it's not properly closed.
- Forntuitor (9/5): Superb - Perfectly retrofitted room in an old house. Rooftop terrace is great.
- Alex (9/5): personalised experience in the heart of Chania - position, details of the room bathroom
- Terry (6/5): Pleasant - Place is fine V Noisy because of a club very close!
- Letizia (9/5): Lovely apartment right in the old town - Amazing interiors, centrally located and lovely host As everywhere in the old town, it gets very noisy at night - loud music, people shouting.. Make sure to bring earplugs. Other than that, impeccable accommodation
- Alexander (10/5): Outstanding, would stay again - Great design, location, AC, the bed is extremely comfortable! The bathroom is a bit narrow if you’re large like me
- Petyo (9/5): Very nice, clean and art furnished place, with very kind, friendly and helpful host. - It was very well and interesting furnished, There was cleaning 3 times for 5 days.
Kind and friendly host.
The location is good - in the hearth of the Old town, but it could be a bit noisier in the peak season. It is difficult to park in that area, but it is not a big problem.
- Gerry (9/5): Fantastic - Spacious room in a great location and a very pleasant host. Could be a little noisy late at night
- Andreas (9/5): Superb - The rooms are very clean and comfortable.
- Ana (9/5): Superb - The host Georgia was super nice, responsive and easy to reach. The Junior Suite was beautiful! The photos don't do justice to the place, it's really nice. It's right in the centre of the old town, surround by beautiful cafes and restaurants (do have a drink at the bar downstairs). Absolutely wonderful. We liked everything. At some point we ran out of hot water but it was just the boiler that accidentally turned off. Georgia replied to our call at 10 pm and promptly explained us how to turn it on again, so nothing but good things. :)
- Amanda (9/5): Lovely stay in a lovely town! Thank you! - Great location in the heart of the old town off the main drag. Georgia is so helpful and lovely too!
- Mariush (9/5): Superb -
- Barbara (10/5): Centrally located, responsive host, and so comfortable! - Great location, very clean and comfortable, nicely decorated. the only thing that might be an issue for some people were the steep stairs.
- Beverley (9/5): Excellent stay and we will definitely be back - Hotel is in a great location. We stayed in the executive suite and it is exactly as the photos. everything we needed was provided, including a bottle opener. Georgia is a great host and kept in touch via whats app. We would stay here again. The room could benefit with some drawers and also a bit more brighter lighting as the room was dark at night and you couldn’t quite see into the bottom of the wardrobe. It also made it a bit difficult to put make up on. You could use the lighting in the bathroom but the basin area was a bit small.
- Elina (10/5): Cosy room, a few steps to Venetian harbour - Perfect location, good bed, shower worked well, had hair dryer, Iron and fridge. Small balcony and near the room a nice terrace. Cosy, nicely done room.
A very nice and helpful hostess. For perfect city center location ofc some noise at night, but did not bother us.
- Diana-lorena (10/5): Perfect stay in the heart of Chania - Amazing place, very well located close to everything, the harbour , restaurants, shops..
And the host a lovely person. extremely friendly and helpful. ☺️
- Αικατερινη (10/5): Super...highly recommended 👌 -
- Cristina (9/5): Superb - The suite is just amazing. The location is very well located, close to the harbour, restaurants and local shops Being located in the old town and surrounded by cafes, restaurants and bars it can be quite noisy during the night.
- Ann (10/5): Exceptional -
- Μαραυγάκης (10/5): Exceptional -
- Yanni (9/5): Superb -
- Boyie (10/5): Nice place and great host, would recommend others to visit - The place is convenient, and the host is very friendly. She provides instant help. It takes about 30 mins to wait for the hot water. Since the electricity price is high, so the bath water heater is normally turned off.
- Thomas (10/5): Delightful property with a superb host who went out of her way to be helpful. - NA
- Dimitsas (8/5): awesome experience, definitely recommend it! - location, room and the rooftop terrace. Maybe the toilet could have been a bit more discreet. I mean, I was staying on my own but if I shared the room with another person then someone would be able to see the other one in the bathroom.
- Stefan (8/5): Very good - Very cosy, clean place with great interior and friendly host. The music from the downstairs bar was pretty loud until midnight. I wouldn’t recommend the place for early sleepers.
- Graham (9/5): Superb -
- Tjibbe (9/5): Beautiful accommodation in the old town with an owner that goes above and beyond - Beautiful and well-maintained property in the heart the old town. The high ceiling gave it a fancy ambiance. The room was clean, and the owner extremely friendly and helpful. Given that it is in the heart of the old town, it can be noisy outside in the middle of the night. It would be great if the accommodation came with disposable ear plugs.
- Margit (9/5): Lovely, clean, super well located, but a bit noisy place - Very close to everything: bus station, shops, etc. Very nice and super clean room. Georgia was amazingly helpful, easy to communicate with, and we met her also in her shop and at the apartment. The balcony was a great plus. We loved to sit there, having the main street just under us. The place was exactly as presented on the pictures. And Georgia provided us with free bottles of water. Since the apartment is in the old town on the main street, it got quite noisy even after midnight. Earplugs recommend if you are sensible to noise. The Wifi could have been a bit better. Picture transfer was slow. The water for the shower got cold after 10pm. But Georgia tried to fix that.
- Adarsh (8/5): Very good -
- Mulazzani (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful room, in the center of Chania
- Madalina (10/5): Amazing place in Crete!!! 🥰 - Everything was amazing. A really nice place with everything you need.
