I will def stay here again. We were two people in the standard room with balcony. Check-in was easy and on our own time. Manager was attentive during off hours, via messaging. The location is perfect….restaurants and bar below but door to balcony sealed well and there was no noise pollution. The place was super clean and we had everything we needed (robes, hair dryer, covers for the drains, etc). The balcony is lovely, albeit for smaller people to sit on. There is really nothing I can think of to hold back a star on my review.

The property is amazingly well presented, and right in the heart of the old town. The terrace is huge, and offers some views across the city. Check in/out was very organised, and communications with the property owner was clear, concise and helpful. Two small points... The location of the property meant that there was a lot of noise very late into the night. This is NO fault of the property, just an insight in to the amount of partying going on.. Also, at the end of the stay, you have to pay for the coffee!

Check in process was terrible. The key was left in a lockbox but I was not given any information or notice on how to access the lockbox. I had to call several times. Accessibility is also not great if you arrive via car.

Clean well located small apartment.

We had a great week in Crete. The apartment was well located in the old town. It was spotlessly clean. WiFi worked well. The breakfasts in a local taverna were good. Only negative is the apartment is very small with poor natural light. No balcony/ terrace. It was a bit noisy at night but earplugs were thoughtfully provided. There is a kettle a microwave and a small fridge. The description kitchenette is a bit misleading. I didn’t feel able to make anything other than a cup of coffee as there is no downstairs sink or work surfaces. I suppose you could heat something up in the microwave. However the local restaurants were so good it was no problem to eat out.

Chania holiday.

We had a wonderful holiday. Our apartment was so central located in the old town near the harbour .It is a beautifull apartment with a amazalg decor with great attention to detail. Tayna cleaned the apartment every day leaving fresh towels always in different shapes. Our host Katia called and let us stay late the day we were leaving as our flight was night time. A very good holiday and enjoyable experience.

Great stay! Beautiful room, nicely decorated. Little kitchenette a bonus especially with fridge and coffee maker. Air conditioning worked great. Only a few minutes walk from the water. They arranged a taxi pick up from the hotel for us. To note: only stairs if that is an issue for people. Also, no reception but they can’t intact you in advance to arrange check in if you do not arrive during a certain time period during the day.

Welcoming and comfortable

Very welcoming and friendly. Taxi driver booked through the hotel had difficulty finding parking and parked some hundreds of metres away and away and insisted on pulling our luggage himself and carrying it up the stairs in the apartment - the stairs are quite steep! Great place to stay. The person cleaning the rooms used to do a different sculpture with the towels each morning - leaving fruit or chocolate in the sculpture. Brilliant location and the room with balcony allows you to chill out in the evening and watch the sun go down slowly. Would strongly recommend it. The only thing to watch out for would be the extremely steep and narrow stairs - if you have mobility problems it might be too much.

loved it

We both loved our apartment and all the special touches by Tania (elephant shaped towels were my favourite). Tania cleaned daily and was so pleasant each time we stopped you say Yasas. Little gifts when we arrived and a card with commonly used words were just fabulous thoughts. Only issue is the walls are quite thin, so noise was an issue depending on people in next room. Ear plugs a must if you're a light sleeper.

Lovely apartment central to everything

My friend and I stayed here for two nights and it was perfect! Located in the centre of Chania with easy access to restaurants, bars, museums, shops and the harbour. An easy 15-20min amble to the beach. The owner, Katia, was friendly and very organised, and the apartment itself was clean and very cute. The air conditioning as excellent and very welcome at night. I would recommend this hotel to anyone thinking of staying in Chania.

Beautiful Room near Harbor

The location is steps from the harbor on a little side street filled with tavernas. Our room was a duplex consisting of a kitchenette and little table downstairs and a large comfortable bed and a sofabed upstairs. We also had a lovely terrace that thankfully included a shade umbrella so we could enjoy it during the day. The room was beautifully decorated with lots of little artistic details. It was a wonderful base for exploring Chania.

Great apartment in excellent location

The apartment was excellent and in a great location right next to the harbour. The large balcony was a real bonus and the bathroom was beautifully decorated. As others have mentioned the stairs are quite steep so would be unsuitable for people with mobility issues. There is also limited storage space due to the layout but this wasn't a major issue for us. Overall we loved our week at Dream Art Studios and would definitely recommend it.

Very reasonably priced for the area.

Room was ready on time, extremely clean and room was able to be securely locked. Bakery next door and restaurants steps away from the front door. Very happy with the stay.
