Always a pleasure at this hotel. Everything is what you paid for. So convenient to the wharf and the airport and has a shuttle bus service as well. I just wish they have variety of foods including some salads. That said, their fried chicken is better than KFC. LOVE the place and the team❤️🙏

An awesome place to stay when arrive in Samoa. Close to the airport and the wharf if planning on going to Savaii. Good comfort food with big servings. Staff are very accommodating and I love how they have a service to the airport and to the wharf. Keep up the good work and keep on doing what you’re doing best

Aircon was perfect, opposite the Samoa Beach Resort, close to airport, wharf, shops, restaurant's and etc Their Restaurant cooks beautiful dinner, staffs were brilliant especially that palagi and the staff from Satapuala at front desk, more shops at Mulifanua. Rooms were clean except one shower due to insects can access inside the rooms. Car park was good but people don’t know how to park. They are building the swimming pool hopefully it will be ready soon. There’s wifi at reception and restaurant area.

Everything started fine, very friendly staff, quick check-in, convenient location and a shuttle to the airport. A nice meal from the restaurant too. It's when I woke the next morning and there were 100's of little black flies in the room that made me disappointed. Also when I took a shower the water sprayed everywhere, after which I discovered it was flowing into the bedroom! Just as well I didn't have things on the floor. Anyway get those things sorted and I would be happy to stay there again.

I guess the price was a guide, but we wanted somewhere close to the airport on our last night in Samoa, for an early morning flight the next day. The room we were given was near the back of the property and the wi-fi didn't reach that far back, so no wi-fi. The room was very basic with no tea or coffee making facilities, no TV, one bath towel, no hand towel, and one pillow each with one of them so lumpy my wife used some clothes as a pillow. We did ask for a second bath towel. We ordered coffees in the restaurant and received beverages which tasted like they were made with instant coffee and sweetened condensed milk. They were so sweet they were undrinkable. Needless to say, we skipped the restaurant for dinner. To top things off, when were arose at 4:00 am to prepare for our flight, there was no hot water for a shower. When we complained of no hot water on our departure, there was no apology, no offer of a part refund, just a blank stare. The hotel served a purpose, but we would never stay there again.

Unfriendly staff at the reception. I respectfully inform them that I have an extra person and one fruit cake staff came with his price $200 to pay for the same room I slept with my sister and my dad. The fridge was dirty, and the air con was even working. Do better next time especially the customer service.

The place is ok for transiting in a matter of hours but won’t recommend for longer stays. There were mosquitoes in the rooms and the wifi went off after our first hour of checkin. I would suggest having adapters or SIM cards/lava spots for guests and to keep money in this family business maybe open a mini convenience store because shops around the area usually close early or are inaccessible. We do want to thank the staff for allowing early checkin and providing drop offs to the Faleolo International Airport early in the morning. For the price we paid, I guess it was worth it but if you’re looking for comfortability and good experience I would not stay here.
