Basic, clean accomodation in Apia.
We stayed in their room with two twins. It is basic, clean, a good shower, and an air con that cools the room if you need it. The room is without character but the location makes up for it. The included complimentary breakfast of cereal, toast, and fruits is sufficient.

The bed was squeaky and uncomfortable but it’s what you’d expect with the cheap price. Overall nice hotel if you are after something cheap and convenient to the city centre.

The very kind staff members and the complimentary breakfast of bread, fruits, and coffee made for a very comfortable stay. Renting a car and such led to a wonderful trip to Samoa. Highly recommended.

This is an island style inn with only 6 rooms on the 2nd floor (at least this is what I saw) which are nice and clean. All the ladies who work in the hotel are the sweetest people you will ever meet. Try the pancakes with their signature coconut syrup/jam. Keep up the great work ladies and keep smiling:)

Excellent place for families and groups.
Very close and handy to most convenient places in town.
Traffic noise is a big issue especially the rooms near the main road. as most drivers I would say very mimika with unnecessary loud music and just plainly rude.

THE WORST EXPERIENCE TO HAVE MY BROTHER STAYING AT YOUR HOTEL. THE OWNER IS ONE OF THE WORST AND DISGUSTING BEHAVIOR. MY BROTHER BOOKED TO STAY HERE FOR TWO WEEKS AND THAT'S HOW YOU TREATED PEOPLE. YOU ARE PATHETIC. I WILL LOOK ELSEWHER FOR HIM TO STAY.

We were told by one staff that we had to pay 30 tala for breakfast. Later was told by another staff it was free.??? Inside was clean. Rubbish was left outside too long. Service excellent

If you’re expecting luxury this isn’t the place for you. The hotel is basic but brilliant. You have everything you need. It’s right in the centre of Apia and walking distance pretty much, from everything. There’s a supermarket directly across the road and a super clean shared kitchen you can use any time. The breakfast is great. There was pancakes with coconut jam yesterday. Always cereal and fruit. What made my stay was the lovely women who worked there. So friendly and helpful and full of suggestions. They genuinely wanted me to enjoy my time. There’s a washer and dryer too. A whole load for a fee. Highly recommended.
