We booked 2 nights. Upon arrival the house was in a dirty state. it was just digusting. The floor were sticky and dirty. The kitchen was in terrible state. The shower was blocked by hairs.. Furthemore It is not right to promote a breakfast when on 1st day there was just 3 eggs for 2 and some Bread . No jam no butter nothing... On 2nd day same 3 eggs arrived when we were leaving.... no juice no cornflakes as advertied on their pictures FELIX the person in charge is a good person but the owner should pay for a cleaning lady. And for a gardener. The state of the garden was appaling. the lawn had not been cut for weeks. It is all very good to rent ooms but maintenance is a priority. ##### Jean charles Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jan Erik Dec 14, 2019 Disliked: Room comfort #### A small guesthouse Close to the center of Papeete. You checked in ”digitalky”. No real life staff available, normally. The very few rooms are basic. The room was glesbygd, but not the terrace next to it. ##### Jan Erik Stayed 1 night in Dec 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Nov 18, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service Good value for money and close to Grocery store and shops.Location is not the best though and is hard to find by taxi.We had found the remote for the Air Conditioning unit on the first level and turned the unit on.Came back after twenty minutes from our upstairs room and noticed the unit was turned off and the remote missing.When the owners came in to restock the breakfast cereals they noticed it was on and I can only assume they were not happy because the unit was using power and abruptly turned it off.We sweltered in the heat alongs with the other angry and upset guests.Stay clear of this place and its rude young male housekeeper. He plays games that he does not understand you! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bastien, France Oct 18, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Easy to go and really good facilities to feel like at home! ##### Bastien Stayed 1 night in Oct 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Didier Dec 24, 2019 ##### Didier Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Nov 11, 2019 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2019 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [EAST Hong Kong](https://www.expedia.ca/Hong-Kong-Hotels-EAST-Hong-Kong.h3077663.Hotel-Information) > > [Stallion Suites Yorkville](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Hotels-Stallion-Suites-Yorkville.h88998310.Hotel-Information) > > [Manava Beach Resort & Spa Moorea](https://www.expedia.ca/Moorea-Maiao-Hotels-Manava-Beach-Resort-And-Spa-Moorea.h867190.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Xcaret Mexico - All Parks / All Fun Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Playa-Del-Carmen-Hotels-Hotel-Xcaret-Mexico-All-Parks-All-Fun-Inclusive.h18335979.Hotel-Information) > > [The Waldorf Hilton, London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-The-Waldorf-Hilton.h2065.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in South Lake Tahoe](https://www.expedia.ca/South-Lake-Tahoe-Hotels.d10150.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Cheap Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d6023515-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Cheap Hotels in Downtown Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Downtown-Vancouver-Vancouver-Hotels-Cheap-Hotels.0-n6058432-0-tCheapHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in London](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Intl-Airport-Hotels.0-aYXU-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Dreams Vista Cancun Golf & Spa Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Dreams-Vista-Cancun-Golf-Spa-Resort-All-Inclusive.h23304849.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton Moorea Lagoon Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Moorea-Maiao-Hotels-Hilton-Moorea-Lagoon-Resort-Spa.h554778.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham San Diego Bayside](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Diego-Hotels-Wyndham-San-Diego-Bayside.h11177.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Hotel & Suites Ft Lauderdale Airport/Cru by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hotel-Suites-Ft-Lauderdale-AirportCru.h1135555.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Pearson Intl. to ROM-All Airports](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/rom/toronto-to-rome) > > [Flights from Prince George (YXS) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxs/yyz/prince-george-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Rome (FCO) to Cinisi (PMO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fco/pmo/rome-to-palermo) > > [Flights from Rome (FCO) to Corfu (CFU)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fco/cfu/rome-to-corfu) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to London (LHR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/lhr/edmonton-to-london) > > [American Airlines](https://www.expedia.ca/American-Airlines-Flights.cAA.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Vancouver (YVR) to Santa Fe (SAF)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yvr/saf/vancouver-to-santa-fe) > > [Flights from Lagos (LOS) to Ibadan (IBA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/los/iba/lagos-to-ibadan) > > [Flights from Montreal (YUL) to Miami (MIA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yul/mia/montreal-to-miami) > > [Flights from Hamilton](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/3963/flights-from-hamilton) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Calgary.d178245.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Packages > [Halifax Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Halifax.d602873.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [all inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations)
