Colorfull Studio in a quiet district

Small, comfortable studio, fully equipped, decorated with style, mainly with handmade furniture made by the owner, in Halepa, the most beautiful neighborhood of the city of Chania, just 2 kilometers from the center and the Old Town and 800 meters from the nearest beach .
We renovated this small apartment in a very creative mood, having decided to make some basic furniture like the bed, use some vintage pieces like the chairs, recycle materials or our own used furniture. The result is that happy, warm home you see in the photos. We named it Friends to honor our friends with whose patience and help we managed this renovation, but also thanks to its friendly, community atmosphere.
It is a studio divided into two parts in such a way that there is privacy between them. In one part a large bed and a comfortable dressing table and a toilet with shower and washing machine and in the other, a fully equipped kitchen, a table for 4 people, a desk for those who want to work and the living room with another day bed. A small sunny courtyard can accommodate your breakfasts, midday siesta or a romantic dinner in the evening, enjoying the beauty of a century-old olive tree next door.
To get to the apartment you have to go down a few steps from the street side to find yourself in a common corridor that communicates with the other two apartments on the ground floor, surrounded by courtyards and gardens. The studio is in the middle of this corridor.
Halepa is an old suburb of the city famous for its history and architectural wealth, as it is full of stately houses, palaces, consulates, gardens and impressive churches from the beginning of the 20th century, such as the house-museum of the most important Greek politician El Venizelou (at a distance of 400 meters) and the Russian church of Agia Magdaleni (Saint Magdalena) with its wonderful garden. The new Archaeological Museum of Chania is 450 meters away. At 600 meters distance is the amazing seaside neighborhood of Tabakaria (tanneries built on vertical cliffs during the period of Egyptian occupation in the 19th century). There you will findone of the best fish taverns in the city next to the sea, the natural pool of Kouloura and the picturesque church of Metamorfosis of Sotira (Transformation of the Savior) overlooking the open sea. Within a 2-5 minute walk you will find a supermarket, a bus stop, cute cafes, excellent taverns with local cuisine and good prices, as well as a car rental office. The coastal walk from Halepa to the old town of Chania, especially at sunset, is an authentic and enjoyable experience that will bring you closer to the local way of life.
A complete guide to the Old Town of Chania, full of secrets and stories of the city that you will not find anywhere else awaits every guest of the Garden of Zephyrus. The 16-page guide is our own publication and is addressed exclusively to our guests and includes a detailed map with the route you can follow to get to know our city as well as even few locals know.

Frequently asked questions for this offer
What happens after I make a reservation?
Once you send a reservation request, the landlord is notified that you are interested in their offer. From that moment, they have 24 hours to approve or reject your reservation.
Landlords are mainly interested in the profile of their tenant. Do not forget to fill in all necessary information, add your profile picture, or even make a short video about yourself. Doing that will make you more attractive for the owner and your reservation will more likely get approved.
What is the standard furnishing of flats?
All the apartments on offer on Flatio must meet certain standards. We require fully furnished and equipped ones, dishes, cutlery and internet connection included.
What is a medium-term rent?
The duration of a medium-term rent is usually 1 to 12 months. Most of the landlords offer long-term rents or rents for just a few days, therefore getting a medium-term rent without Flatio is not that easy.
Can I go through the contract before I make a reservation of the housing?
You can take a look at the contract in advance and online with every offer. After you sign it, you will find it in the application My Housing.
While arranging a contract on Flatio, you do not have to worry that it could be disadvantageous for you. Our contracts are made so that we avoid all problems! All of them are the same, used by all the landlords on Flatio.
Can I see my chosen accommodation in person before I sign the lease agreement?
Your time is precious. That's why we've added a virtual tour option to our platform so you can see some of the rentals listed on Flatio from the comfort of your own home.
If a virtual tour isn't available for the accommodation you've chosen, you can contact the landlord and ask them if they're willing to give you a personal tour of the rental unit.
If you move in and find that the rented accommodation doesn't match the information on Flatio at the time the reservation request was sent to the landlord, you can withdraw from the lease agreement under certain circumstances explained in this article in our help center.
Also, under our "secure move-in" policy, we'll assist you with moving to an alternative accommodation if you report within a certain period of time that the rental unit doesn't match the ad and the landlord doesn't fix the problem immediately. You can read the details in our help center.
How can I pay?
On Flatio, you have a variety of payment methods to choose from. You can use your card, payment gateway or bank transfer. Just pick the one which suits you the most.
How can I cancel my reservation?
How you can cancel a reservation varies depending on what stage the reservation is in.
Is your reservation request still waiting for landlord approval? Then you can simply cancel it directly from your My Housing web app!
However, suppose the owner has already approved your reservation request, and you are no longer interested in it. In that case, you can still cancel the reservation before you sign the lease agreement. Just consider that you should do this only in essential cases. Because when the landlord accepts your reservation, their property is stopped being advertised, and they can lose the chance to rent their property to someone else.
Do you have an approved reservation and also a valid agreement? In order to cancel your reservation, contact Flatio customer support well in advance of your contract beginning (the specific time and amount of refund depends on the type of cancelation policy).
