I had to book here since there was no vacancy in any other hotel that was walking distance to where I needed to be for a business meeting. First, I can't blame the hotel for the fact that arriving guests come through the rear entrance, since the main street has been turned into a pedestrian mall. That said, the entry is bizarre, past numerous massage devices and artificial flower arrangements (including a Minnie & Mickey Mouse affair). The staff does seem intent upon selling massages far more than servicing rooms.

My room was on the third floor (no elevator), with entry achieved by means of a brass key. I arrived after 10 pm and was looking forward to a hot shower after an 18-hour trip, but there was no hot water. I didn't want to travel down stairs to alert the staff so I settled with a cold shower. No soaps or shampoos provided -- just a dispenser of the type you find in airport restrooms. Also no towel racks anywhere -- and practically no towels either: just two bath towels. When I complained about the lack of hot water the next day, staff came up and then discovered that the hot water heater for the room had not been turned on.

The room is not clean. There's a kind of kitchen sink with mold around the faucet fixture. Doesn't look as though it has been scrubbed in months. Same with the floors. The television screen looks as though it has been melted on the top half and I can't get it to work anyway. There are rubber slippers in the closet, apparently for use by guests wanting to observe the Japanese tradition of not wearing street shoes in the house. But the slippers themselves look worse than the floors. Gross!

The alternative is to read -- but the light in the room is so dim, I've been forced to turn on the lamp in the ventilator fixture above the spot where a cooktop must have once existed in order to avoid eyestrain. For anyone using a computer, plugs are in short supply. There's one by the bathroom lav, another by the former kitchen sink, and still another inside of what was once a kitchen cabinet. Other than that, there's just one more in the room that isn't occupied with a hotel fixture -- and to get to that, I had to move the extra twin bed out from the wall.

The water is not fit to drink. The bed is about as hard as any I've ever slept on.

Room security would seem to be non-existent. When you leave, you put your room key in a little box by the front desk. Seems to me that, with the extremely lax attention at the desk, anyone could pass by and pick up a key that wasn't theirs.

The sheets do look clean, however, and the air conditioner works. That's about it.

TV don't work, no wash cloth nor wash soap, refigerator not working.alley in back looks like the slums of garrapan. Prostitution running around all over.a big disappoint.in general .....all for 90$ don't waste your $ here.

This was a horrible way to start off a family vacation to the South Pacific. Online the rooms look spacious and clean, but in person they're anything but. First there is no parking, you have to park in the back of the hotel on the street (Good luck with that) and the stench of dead fish to greet you. Second there is no elevator so definitely be prepared to carry all your bags up the stairs. And last the room was awful, on the internet they show a clean, spacious, modern looking room and it is anything but. The room had a horrible smell, and the air conditioner was turned on when we entered the room. The bathroom was small and a mess, there is a random sink in the corner of the room near the "bar" that doesn't even work, and the place has cockroaches. I believe an employee must be writing the "good" reviews, because there is nothing good to say about this place. Needless to say my family checked out the next morning, and was refunded 2 of the 3 days by expedia. DO NOT STAY HERE, although cheap and in a great location it is AWFUL!!!
