"I stayed here for eight nights as a solo traveller. The kitchenette had everything I needed to cook my own meals. The hotel is in a great spot close to supermarkets and shops. The hotel owner was fabulous and lovely in helping me get some tours arranged. The view of the forest from the room window was wonderful. The WiFi was stable throughout. The breakfast was good enough for my needs. I wouldn't hesitate to book here again. Thank you for making my time in Palau so positive!"
