You can't beat Olympic for the location, nor for the price. The bed was comfy, the breakfast was fine. Olympic has a pleasant terrace on the top floor, where you can sit and read and watch the planes take off from the nearby HER airport. My only complaint was that the smallness of the bathroom meant no towel racks, only a couple of hooks behind the door.

Below average

The nice lobby is deceiving. The rooms are very old and mine was very dark (the only windows faced a skylight well). Decently clean but I found a hair in the jam at breakfast (I guess that it can happen but it is the first time that it happens to me, in the more than 30 years in which I have been travelling). It will not be my choice at my next visit at Crete University.

We stayed only for 6 hours, we got in late and needed a place close to the airport. We knew parking was extra but it said some was available. We messaged to secure it and got no response. On arrival there is no where to stop in a car we got honked at just no where to pull over. The parking was close but took driving some tight alleys to find and then you have to hand over your keys and the car for valet style. They were good but it’s a rental I wasn’t told that. The room smelled like smoke. It was clean but not impressive in any way. We had a room booked for 3 twin beds or one queen and one twin. We requested 3 twins. We got two twins pushed together like a queen and a cot.
