View was horrible - have to be above 2nd floor on one side of the hotel to see water. The staff was great. Very basic room very close to airport, but not really walkable with anything other than a backpack.

This is a good location for staying on a layover between flights. Keep in mind that there is a steep uphill walk to get there from the airport. Rooms were comfortable, had AC, and adequate for a short stop. Breakfast was an expensive option, so we skipped in favor of a really good cafe that was less than ten minutes walk away.

This property is good location and convenient. It has what’s need for a layover flight. The only thing is there is no food availability at this property other than breakfast which is not convenient.

Ridiculous to call this an airport hotel. While it may look on the map like it's at the airport, it's actually at the top of a hill across a busy highway and if you have luggage the only way to get there is to take a 20 Euro cab ride because the hotel has no shuttles. The rooms themselves are crappy and the wifi awful. Never, ever again.

The room was spotless and the sheets were crisp and clean. The motel is set at the top of a steep incline. Definitely walkable if you have small bags, but it was a struggle with heavy suitcases! In fairness we were warned. We thought we would be fine. Not our best idea! Also, the path you can see as you walk out of the airport is gated and locked so you have to use the car route to walk to the hotel.

Ideal, you just have to remember this is a motel not a hotel. So limited facilities. Ideal location for the airport if you have a early morning flight arrival or departure, which most international flights are. Within a short 10 minutes walking distance if you are able as slght hill to climb. Pity the direct step access from across the airport car to motel have been closed off. The motel itself is clean, comfortable beds and I was not distrubed by any aircraft noise. They do offer a continental break at €10 but did not partake so can not comment on this. The staff we're very friendly and arranged a taxi for us for our onward travels. You can get some lovely views looking across to Moorea from tge second floor balcony.

Ncl debarked in Tahiti took taxi cost $34.00 for 4 people or take bus to airport for $2.00. It was too early to check in they held my luggage while we took bus to marketplace. We checked into hotel room was clean and front desk Red was so kind to call taxi service. I just need to stay 1 night and be close to airport you can walk but there’s stairs as you walk on airport grounds.

The property is pretty dated and needs some work. Rooms were sparsely decorated but the bed was comfortable and the bathroom and shower were roomy and clean. The rooms have air conditioning but the room never cooled down much at all. The area around the hotel are pretty run down.

Very important. If you are coming from Australia, New Zealand or other spots to the west, you will cross the international date line which means if you leave during the day on April 3 and arrive after midnight, it will still be April 3. So you may have booked the hotel for April 3 but check in is 2pm and check out is April 4. That won’t work. To be safe communicate with the hotel re your exact arrival and departure. Good news, the place has someone on duty in the wee hours to greet people arriving very late as we did. If there is a room, they will accommodate you. Numerous people goof up the reservation as we did but the guy at the front desk fixed the dates and had a room. That was a huge relief. If you are young, healthy and have little luggage you can walk uphill to the motel but for others take a taxi and be prepared with the local currency, XPF. We worked out a price of 2,000 XPF which is expensive for a short ride but the residents are poor and if you are in Tahiti, you are not. The motel was very basic but clean and the accommodation of the person at the front desk was priceless. We only stayed overnight and left the next morning to catch a ferry to Moorea so I can’t comment on anything else.

Very close to the airport, so it's a good place for short stay right after late arrival or prior to early departure. Spacious room, good shower. What bothered me most was their pillows: too high, I wasn't able to fall asleep on those pillows at all. Ended up bundling up my clothes for a make do pillow.
