    Great location for a quick rest and prepare your next move. If you manage to be served by Lole, you're winning.

    One of our rooms shower and water pressure was non existent and needed fixing. Could not have a shower or flush the toilet (within 10min of using it). You cannot walk out on the Main Street after dark, too many pack of dogs roaming. You scare one dog away and 20 of them return literally looking opportunities. It's crazy. Carpark is not big enough for the hotel but like many things in Samoa, you make do with what you have. Try not to park at the front on the Main Street after dark, it's too dark and the dogs are a real issue on this street.

    Great location, 5min from Town, great staff (Lole is exceptional). Pricing is fair and suiting what's on offer. The pool area is great! The chemist and wellness centre onsite is a bonus for outsiders travelling to Samoa.

    Breakfast could have been better. Stale cornflakes, no juice, really just toast and jam and a bit of fruit. Television didn’t work and ugly cords hanging down.

    Nice swimming pool. Quiet and comfortable room.

    The only concern I had with this property was lack of parking space. I had to back up on the road or back up into the parking lot which can be hard at times, esp during clinic open hours.

    This property is in a great location, away from town but not too far away, it has access to the main highway that connects to everything else. This property also has its own pharmacy and clinic, which is a plus in my book, esp for us traveling.. we might need to get otc medicine in case you get sick or may have forgotten medicine at home.

    Im not sure this is a good or bad thing but the air-conditioning was way too good and i did not have a remote to adjust it in the room. I did have two beds in my rooms so i just to the bedding from the extra bed when i was cold in the night.

    Friendly staff and security guard, took my bags to my room upstairs and then to get someting to eat quite late at night after a long day of travel delays :) Thank you

    It may be an elevator for the elderly, but the upstairs walk was not bad. The staff were helpful, though when I was settling in. A hot water jug would be very handy.

    Your staff tried to tell us we were meant to check out on the 26 but we booked till the 27th

    Only one staff was nice and friendly. Your reception was rude and also I heard her threatening a customer in Samoa that she will slap her. We booked for 5 people and only got 4 beds
