Good location
Pros: The staff / owner was super responsive, and they provided early check-in, which was much needed, as we were travelling all night to reach Halki. The location is super; on the way to Pondamos beach and 6-7 minutes to the port and 6-7 minutes to Pondamos beach.. uphill but not a major problem for us. The room was clean with slippers, toothbrush (not used, though), and a very well functioning a.c. Good mattress. Charming decoration.
Cons: Our room was rather small and basically with no direct outdoor access, and the only window was opening to a wall!! It's not the best place to stay if you feel claustrophobia. We couldn't close or open the window. Thus, we have requested a couple of times the owner to close or open the window to avoid the daylight, which would interrupt our sleep. The owner was always super responsive and polite. No cleaning, towels change etc has been offered during our 3 nights stay. Poor soundproof. Rather expensive considering what it offers (however, prices at Halki are rather high due to limited availability and not because the accommodation offers what it was supposed to offer based on the price). We have paid almost €130 per night. However, i can't claim that our expectations, have been exceeded.

Pros: I liked that the landlady sent her brother to let us in early, as I hadn’t responded to her calls. The location was near the top of the village, but just a gradual climb. The bonus was that it was nearer Pondamos beach. The room is in a lovely old stone house. Liked the decor and little personal touches. It was nice to sit out the front.
Cons: Nothing.

Great location
Pros: Lovely old stone villa, ideally located between the pretty port and sandy Pondomas beach. It is uphill from port and beach but only short walk to both. Room small but clean and comfortable beds. Outside terrace, great space to relax with coffee and pastries bought from local bakery for breakfast or a glass of wine and your book. Eat at Black Sea and Valantis, drink at Steki where the owner is really friendly and can give you lots of information. Didn't meet Kleanthe but she left keys for us to find on arrival and phoned to check we were ok.
Cons: Nothing really. No port pick up and there appears to be only 1 taxi which we managed to get!!! Although Kleanthe is only about 5 minutes walk it is uphill if you have luggage.

Pros: A very tastefully decorated room with a very comfortable bed. It has a fridge, kettle, tv, and air conditioning. The shower was hot and powerful. Only a few minutes walk to the port. The front garden has tables, chairs, and umbrellas and is a nice, peaceful place to relax. There is also a clothes horse.
Cons: Room 3 has very little natural light due to the close proximity of the adjacent house. There is no holder for the shower head.

Comfortable relaxing stay, good value for money.
Pros: Very nice traditional building of Chalki. The outdoors area is super for chilling, reading a book etc. Room was spacious, super clean and comfortable providing everything one might need.
Cons: The interior renovation to convert it to a guest house and the chosen materials don’t do this amazing building justice.

A lovely traditional house in a great central location in Chalki.
Pros: A lovely traditional house with three individual rooms for guests in a great central location in Chalki. Just a 5 minute walk to Pondomos Beach, and a 15 minute walk to Ftegania Beach. The room was lovely and airy with a window we could open and good aircon. The shower had good pressure and hot water. There is also a nice terrace to enjoy drinks or breakfast. Easy walk to cafes, restaurants, and supermarkets.

Pros: A fantastic location - a few minutes to the harbour, a few minutes to the beach. Beautifully traditional outside but recently refurbished and immaculate and modern inside. Lovely outside space to sit and relax. Thank you, Kleanthe. We really enjoyed our stay.
Cons: We loved everything! The only thing that I would have liked would be a few hooks behind the doors. 😊
