Good stay
Decent hotel with a great Italian restaurant Giordano just a min away. Breakfast was simple with fresh fruits, toast and cereal. Rooms were new, and staff were nice.

The focus on being environmentally friendly is so unique. We had a family room which was a large room with 6 single beds and there were only 4 of us, all adults. They might need to rethink the emergency stairs though. If you stay there you'll know what i mean. But it was a great facility for two nights. And the staff are lovely.

The staff were impeccable and assisted me in every way possible. Thank you for the downstairs bedroom that I requested. Bed was very comfortable! I wish I stayed there longer but will definitely return to Alec's when I am in Samoa next time. Faafetai lava mo mea uma. Ia faamanuia le Atua i le au faigaluega faapea le pisinisi.

The weren’t terribly friendly upon our arrival. The pool didn’t look clean. A convenient location. Neither bad nor good. Stay at Lynn’s Getaway instead.

Great location to stay in Apia
Great cheap new location to stay in Apia, where only real issue was the TV signal (nothing much to watch anyway) The hotel doubles up as a medical clinic, which seems a bit odd but is actually a great way of providing affordable care in a tourism-centric developing country The pizzeria across the road is amazing - gotta try the Palusami pizza!

Talofa Christina Vili Thank you for your comments which have taken these with our staff. Your review though is a bit wry as you left with an outstanding bill of approximately $390 Samoan Tala resulting in us having to report this to Expedia. As I say we use all feedback to try and improve our service and appreciate you taking time out to comment. Regards T Pati (General Manager)

Convinient comfortable clean easily accessible rooms are air conditioned and 5 mins from town area. Was just disappointed that we’rent able to use the pool which was part of the package as we were told it was broken and clearly saw some rubbish in it.
