Got the room for a week and can't find them any faults. Rooms get cleaned every other day and your are in close proximity to your neighbours noise is there but it's not that loud. It's quite (April), first time ever I've got in a place where you have to pay for aircon and WiFi... but hey.... place's you visit custom you find and adapt. I had a lovely time here food and nature is great and if you love walking you can get to different sea sides and see the sun rise and set I definitely Recommend it! !! If you're here for the night life plenty to see too. Whatever you pick just get out of your room and see what Crete has to offer.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
1 CRAPPY DAYS lived up to its name as the owners dog CRAPPED by the sun beds every day.
2 The owner would not let me lock a bike that I hired where the mopeds where parked and banged on my door angry to get it moved even though another member of staff had said it was OK, she would not let me keep the bike in my ROOM EITHER she said nobody steals there.
3 The bike I hired was stolen after staff moved it without telling me.
4 The TV didn't work.
5 The fridge didn't work.
6 loads of crap under the bed.
7 could not sleep any night because when people come in late it sounds like they are in your room, same when people talked on the balcony it sounded like they where next to you in bed the way the balconys are channeled TOGETHER LIKE AN ECHO CHAMBER.
8 Sun never got on my balcony morning or evening.
9 All the balconys are crushed up against each other, absolutely no privacy you could have eaten from there plates.
10 View from balcony was a wall and tractors.
11 It cost 3 euros extra every day for the room, (room tax) although I heard they charged 2 euros sometimes.
12 Air conditioning is an extra 63 euros a week.
13 WiFi is an extra 10 Euros a week.
14 The maid who I called ADOLF would not let me in my room and became aggressive because she'd washed the stairs.
15 The beach is a 45 minute walk from CRAPPY DAYS.
16 it costs an extra 25 euros to stay after 11 on the last day.
17 ADOLF the maid let herself in my room before 11 on the last day and told me to leave.
Other than the above malia is beautiful I was cycling up to Rosa Gorge before the staff messed with my bike.

Very nice hotel. Rooms are clean. Pool is lovely. However when booking through booking dot com even though it tells you that you will get aircon and wifi the hotel will not give it to you unless you pay extra charges. They were not accommodating even tho I showed proof of what I had payed for. So just be aware so you’re not at a loss when you get here like I was.

I spent a week here along with 8 other girls and from the other reviews left about this hotel, we were nervous.
However as soon as we got there we were pleasantly surprised. Owners were very nice, we had to pay a deposit and wifi/aircon payment in cash upon arrival (you get €20 back at the end of your week depending on the state of your room).
They told us the rules such as no loud music on the balcony’s after 11pm, no food or drinks that weren’t bought at the hotel to be by the pool ect (these all seemed reasonable).
The rooms were very modern, clean and much nicer than we were expecting. However, we did have 2 single beds and a sofa bed which is not what we thought we paid for. We had to ask for a second mattress for the sofa due to it being extremely uncomfortable. Air-con does need to be paid for but it is definitely worth it as works really well. They also only provide you with one toilet roll and no hand soap, but these can be bought from any of the shops nearby. (There’s also a tiny shop at the hotel with a few essentials in)
WiFi works wells if you’re near the pool/have a room near the pool.
The restaurant in the hotel was amazing as it was well priced with lots of breakfast/lunch/dinner options. However it’s also less than 5 min walk to get to old town where there’s lots or traditional Greek restraunts.
Overall, all the girls were very happy with our experience at Happy Days Studios and I’d recommend this hotel to anyone going to Malia.
