Nice Hotel for Great Price
Very convenient location to the airport and Chania. Nice hotel, with a friendly and helpful staff. Price was GREAT, as was the breakfast! Flew in late, and they left a key for us. Just needed to let them know ahead of time. I will stay there again when traveling to Chania.

stay at water lily
We were four girls all early 20's who stayed at this hotel as a location before our actual destination as we flew into chania airport but we are going back again for our last night as the hotel was that nice. Nina the owner is incredibly friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was to die for. Also a major plus is the photos online are the same as the rooms which was a big relief.

Huoneisto tilava ja keittokomeron varustetaso kohtalaisebn hyvä. Ravintolapalvelut hotellissa niukat ja myös lähistöllä vähäiset. Kauppa palveli vastapäätä pitkään omatoimisia. Makuuhuoneissa viilennyslaite erinomainen. Sijainniltaan hankala löytää, koska opastus puutteellinen. Hanian lentokentälle n. 11 km. Henkilökunta erittäin ystävällistä. Iltayön parinkymmenpäisen joukon bileet häiritsivät, koska äänieristys heikohko.
