"This is a hidden gem! Love the location as it's away from the hustle and bustle of Apia but not too far. It was very clean; the executive room I was in was perfect, and it was quiet enough even with events on in their main area. I will definitely look to book with these guys again; the staff were amazing. Love the shower outside; I just didn't have hot water, which I could've followed up on, but I was too relaxed and chilled to bother. 10/10 for me!"
