Great place to stay in town. Center of everything and I’m front of the ferries. Stayed there twice during my time in Papeete. Got the cabin bunk for a solo traveler no complaints communal showers outside that separates men and woman. Easy place for easy travelers.

These were not cabins they were extremely small rooms with shared bathrooms. Felt like staying in a hostel. The hotel was very gray, nothing bright or welcoming like you might expect in Tahiti. The staff was very nice and helpful. But read carefully before you book.

Was one of best hostels I've stayed in. Reception was staffed 24/7 with friendly, helpful people. Key card entry to floor, hallway & room. My private room had a double bed & a/c. The restrooms/showers are accessible, clean & private.The community area was clean, had comfortable seating, an espresso machine, teapot & fixings, microwave, water & ice.
