"The hotel is in a good location to walk to the main promenade in Papeete, Although it’s not a pretty neighborhood. Quite a few shuttered businesses but felt completely safe to walk around day or night. The street noise is present if in one of the street facing rooms. It has a pool that is having a reno, but it’s nice and looks out towards the hillside. The workout room was sufficient and I appreciated it being included. We didn’t use the spa. The staff were efficient and helpful. They offer luggage storage which was great. Overall I would stay here again for a stopover. My biggest complaint is there is no outlet in the bathroom and no mirror in the bedroom where the outlets are. If you want to use any hair appliances, there is no way to see yourself. "

"Front desk staff was friendly and helpful "

"Great breakfast— large buffet at about $30 per person Grounds lovely and well taken care of. Rooms large. Pool nice. Access to the beach not easy , seemed like a steep drop off. The water wasn’t inviting. Would recommend but not for beach."

"Dated Meals restricted to certain times."

"The hotel appears to be fairly new. The room smelt of fresh paint, clean and a good size. The bed was comfortable, and the bathroom and kitchenette area was a good size. The location is approximately 15 minute taxi drive from the airport, which was perfect, especially with an early morning flight. The only disappointment is no onsite restaurant. Recommendations were suggested by hotel staff, with a mobile pizza stand just next door. If arriving late at night and travelling alone, you won't have far to walk."

"We booked 3 nights at this bed and breakfast after our cruise in Tahiti. We arrived around 3 pm and unpacked and were sitting on the porch furniture when we noticed lots of ants on the furniture. We just decided to just not to sit out there and we were leaving anyway to go out to dinner. We got back late in the evening and went straight to bed. The next day we got up early and had breakfast in the owners kitchen. We left right after breakfast to go to Tahiti Iti on the other side of the island to Tuaputoo to watch the surfers. We went to dinner on the way home and were back around 8pm. That’s when we saw ants everywhere in the whole unit. They were in the bed, in the bathroom sink, trails everywhere along the floor baseboard and furniture. We shook out the blankets and it was late so we went to bed. Early in the morning we decided to skip the breakfast and notify the owner we would not be staying the third night because of all the ants. She stormed into our room and saw all the ants and instead of apologizing to us, she accused us of having food in the unit. We weren’t even in the unit most of the time and ate out both days! There were hundreds of ants and the only food we had was 5 cookies in a refrigerator which was located outside the unit on the porch! She refused to refund our money for the third night so we left anyway. No way were we going to stay another night! We notified Travelocity and sent them photos of the ants. Unexpectedly they gave us $100 compensation"

"The room and bathroom facilities were clean and the bed was comfortable, but no drinking water or tissues were provided. The continental breakfast was good, but it ends at 09.00 hrs, which strikes me as rather early for holidaymakers. No other meals are offered, so guests are obliged to go elsewhere to eat. I walked to the supermarket and bought food to eat on my lanai, but there are also food trucks about a 15-20 minute walk away. Twice during the morning of checkout a maid tried to enter my room without knocking. Fortunately I lock my doors, so she could not get it. No staff should enter any room without knocking and there is no need for cleaners to knock on guest goors before the 11.00 hrs checkout time. "
