8/10 Very good

Friday’s night party in the hotel lasted until 2am. It was not possible to sleep with the music blasting so late.

Not as nice as the images on the net
Not a fan. Staff very friendly but room was very ordinary.

4/10 Fair

Location was good, but pool water was green and filthy. Rooms were not very clean. Chaise by pool so old and dirty could not sit on them. Gave you very limited wifi usage and then had to pay. The place needs an overhaul. Shoreline in front of hotel was littered with trash and debris, wouldn't think of getting in the ocean water there. Hopefully they will be able to bring this hotel up to their previous standards. For now I suggest stay away. Never tried the food, with how dirty everything else was, didn't want to take the chance.

8/10 Very good

Rooms were clean and the air conditioning was effective. Water pressure was also good. Wi-Fi was very poor. The hotels two restaurants were ok but overpriced - breakfast was the best option. Service was friendly but more responsive than proactive. This hotel is better than most others in Honiara and I would stay here again.

2/10 Poor

I can't say there was anything really good about the property. It needs a really good cleanup - tiles falling out and not replaced; place smelt very damp (and I know it is a humid climate); the sheets were yellow with age; the shower was horrid and just the general decor was so old and worn and smelly. I would not recommend anyone to stay there.
