Guest Reviews

• Kevin (8/5): You cannot tell a book by its cover - Hey it is not the Hilton but I found the staff friendly and helpful. My room was big, clean with good wifi and shower. Fridge in room. . Food in restaurant was good. Good communication. Airport pickup and drop off It's a bit far from town . 20 minutes walk or $2 taxi
• Jose Manuel (7/5): Conveniente hotel - Friendly staff, great location next to the airport The building outside needs renovatión
• DanHobby (8/5): -
• Pszczółkowska (9/5): -
• Ulrich (9/5): - Hotel is best described as "good enough". Good restaurant, room has all the essentials like working A/C, good Wifi for a small island, clean. They give you lots of free bottled water. While they offload cargo ships right outside the room window (even at night), no problems with noise.
• jian zhong (10/5): -
• Naomi (7/5): Good for a few nights stay right at the airport - The staff were so responsive and friendly and helpful Pick up from airport offered although you can walk it in about 2 mins Restaurant on site Water machine for hotel and cold water Work worked well Shower had hot water It could do with a little updating it’s a little tired Rooms not well sound proofed and can hear karaoke or people talking outside
• Tobias (9/5): -
• jenpil78 (8/5): Good option in Kolonia. - A good option in Kolonia. There isn't too much else. Run by Chinese, and they have a restaurant that opens for lunch and dinner, they can do your laundry, and you can hire an SUV car through them too. The beds were comfy, and the TV could get YouTube. Bottled water provided. The air con worked well too. Walking distance from the airport, but they picked me up and stopped me off. Very kind. The hotel looks a bit grim and unappealing from outside. Could do with a lick of paint, and cheering up.

• Richard (7/5): -

• FRANCISCO JAVIER (5/5): - Good food and good attention by the staff
• Darren (8/5): More than adequate! - Close to the airport. Restaurant on site. Friendly staff. A little far to walk into town, though it was enjoyable when not raining.
• Haluk Adil (7/5): It was alright just 4 nights. - Close to Airport, they provide water from dispenser. About a mile away from City center. They didn’t even grocery stores nearby,
• Evaristo Rene (7/5): ood for my visit. Very close to the airport, staff very helpful and friendly, accomodating. - No breakfast included. There is no breakfast.

• Patrick (10/5): - Hervorragende budget traveler Option Stabiles und schnelles Internet Gratis Trinkwasser durch Wasserspender auf den Fluren Super Lage am Flughafen 3min fußläufig Wer nicht laufen will, wird gratis geshuttelt Bestes Restaurant der Insel im Hause Korrekte und unkomplizierte Autovermietung Da in hafennähe, kann es manchmal Lärm durch die Schiffe geben (Be- und Entladung)
• Hasantha (5/5): Cheap place near airport but nowhere near anything else! - Staff friendly Terrible location next to airport and Wharf, but nothing else nearby. Hotel restaurant not bad though
• Wassim (10/5): - The staff , the Filipina lady at the restaurant was extremely nice and helpful Highly recommend
• Jun (10/5): -
• Cudia (10/5): - Everything is good place people who work there I think ders nothing.. All is good
• Ali Abbas (7/5): -
• Světlana (6/5): - The staff was very helpful and warm. For guests who only have a stopover between islands, it is a great location just a minute's drive from the airport. There is also a restaurant here, which opens at 5:00 PM and closes around ten. The rooms are spacious, there is plenty of storage space and there is wi-fi. If you are here for more than one night, I would choose a location in the city, it is a bit out of reach. The area around the hotel is not nice at all and is quite busy. The hotel itself, both outside and inside, would definitely need renovation. We had problems with the access card for three days in a row. The water drains very poorly in the shower.
• Mihai (9/5): Pleasant surprise - Despite the outside look this is a great choice, very nice owner and staff, well appointed rooms. They offered me to rent a car for the day, the restaurant was very good. Internet worked well. The bathroom light, the phone and probably the tv didn't work but it wasn't such a big deal
• Marc (3/5): Never again - Pick up from airport. Looked acceptable for a bad hotel. Room smelled of extreme humidity and smoke that really made it pretty unbearable even with the air conditioning. As of pillows and bed we impregnated by the humidity. I breathed by the mouth. Next morning left as soon as possible and slept at the airport. Was it only my room? Not sure. Even of close to airport, never again.

• William (8/5): This is exactly what I needed - inexpensive place to spend the night in between flights. - Walking distance from the airport. Easy check in. Easy booking through Booking.com. Stark amenities. Could hear a bit of the machinery from the port.
• Tiago (8/5): -
• MARTA (7/5): Functional and convenient option in Pohnpei - China Start Hotel is a functional hotel next to the airport of Pohnpei. It offers good Chinese food (the Chinese restaurant is always full!) and convenient services like car rental. It is a good option if you do not need a turistic / resort-like experience. The staff were friendly. It was not particulary clean, and definitely not tourist-oriented.
• Nguyen (4/5): -
• Roman (8/5): -
• S (3/5): Quick 7 hr overnight lay over stay - Walking distance from airport. Free Wi-fi. No mattress...only a dressed up box spring; I definitely took a nap on just a box spring! Warm, damp room, with slippery wet floor tiles from humidity and the leaky ceiling; it actually had some stalactites!! Took a while for AC to cool down once turned on. No shower curtain to keep water in, a single very small damp toilet paper roll, & some trash already in bathroom trash can. Room smell was....not pleasant. Did not dare investigate the mini fridge. Overflowing trash in hallway with food containers. Maybe the 2nd floor was the wrong floor...
• Johnston (7/5): The property is most convenient for the airport and town down - NO breakfast, but the location is perfect for the Airport The staff and waitresses
• Yoshida (7/5): 快適だが遠い - 清潔。レストランの食事が美味しい😋 場所がコロニアの町から遠い。歩けなくはないが。空港隣接なので、飛行機で早朝出発の前泊にはとても良い。
• Aleksandr (9/5): Рядом с аэропортом - Отель, конечно, подуставший. Не все прямо комфортно, что-то пошарпано, что-то немного грязное. Но, если учитывать специфику региона, то можно отбросить многие придирки. На ресепшен принимают не только наличиные, но и карты. При отеле есть ресторан китайской кухни. Кому-то может не подходит, но когда нечего есть, то и там можно найти компромис ) Могут вызвать такси, если надо куда-то съездить. Я договорился на тур по острову, сделали, не подвели. Расположение в 5 минутах пешком от аэропорта, что очень удобно и не надо переживать, что если такси не приедет.
• Muller (9/5): - The stairs
• Eddy (9/5): Very Close to Airport - Very close to the airport so I just walked there which took only a few minutes. Very friendly staff. Good restaurant attached on first floor for dinner (could pay and eat breakfast too there). Good wifi and AC and hot water. Pillows here very thin and there was no elevator.
• Werner (3/5): Good location, nice staff, very old and run down hotel - It is very close to the airport, it has a good Chinese restaurant and the most of the staff are very nice It is very old and run down, it is at most a 2-star hotel
• Stephen (9/5): Slice of island pie - Hotel manager was very responsive and helpful my entire stay. Drove me from the airport, picked up SIM card, helped me with taxis and recommendations for breakfast restaurants and even offered to pick me up when taxi did not show up in town. Excellent service. Very personalized. TY 🙏
• Jayson (3/5): Poor -
• Dominique (4/5): Disappointing - Location near airport Run down hotel, stayed 6 nights : 3 nights with no hot water Room was not cleaned during our stay Awfully expensive for what is offerred⁸
• Leander (10/5): Exceptional -
• Leander (10/5): Exceptional - Weiping, the owner, truly went above and beyond to make my stay memorable. Not only did he provide me with food and drinks late at my arrival night and during holidays, he also organised a very inexpensive car for me and invited me on a fishing trip with his friends. Altough I didn`t catch anything, we still shared dinner together. His staff was helpful and trustful, I requested another room because the previous tenant smoked and it was still lingering in the room. The staff went upstairs with me and we checked several rooms together and they let me pick one. I was also trusted with doing all my payments on checkout day without securities or deposit. I felt extremely welcome and comfortable there. It is only 3 minutes walk from the airport, but quite a stretch over the causeway from the town.
• Douglas (8/5): It was a pleasant exchange and stay - For the island being of humble and limited resources, the staff and owner were ever so helpful. My room was large, spotlessly clean and all I required. WiFi was adequate and free. The dining in the restaurant was exemplary; tasty and portions enough to feed 3 or 4 people. The owner insisted on assisting me to the airport, despite that it was only a sneeze distance away. When I first saw the building from the rear as our ship approached, I was dismayed. I am very happy I stayed and experienced their hospitality. The climate makes everything moldy so the rear of the building looked unkept but really, all the buildings have mold on their exterior wall. It is Hot, Humid and HOT and doubly Humid
• John (9/5): Superb -
• Turner (9/5): Exactly what you paid for! - Very close to airport. Chinese restaurant was excellent. Room was comfortable and clean. No elevator.
• Glenn (6/5): It was ok, just the price needed adjustment for the inconvenience of other things - It’s closer to the airport Needed help with luggage all the way up to 3rd floor… no elevator
• Karen (3/5): Other than its proximity to the airport and DOLINA, I would look elsewhere to stay. - The property is a 5 minute walk from the airport. The A/C takes a bit to get the room cool but once it does, it’s terrific! They provide free water via a water dispenser using your own container to fill. The restaurant located in the first floor serves decent Chinese cuisine. Process are moderate for the portions served. The receptionist, DOLINA EZEKIAS, was ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL! She was very helpful with whatever we needed and went out of her way to make our stay as pleasant as possible. She also let us stay 2 extra nights when our travel plans changed unexpectedly. SHE DESERVES A BIG RAISE!! WE LOVE DOLINA!! There is absolutely no view from any room. The hotel is located next to the shipping harbor. There is no elevator and all rooms are on the 3rd floor. The steps are steep on the stairwell. There is mildew growing on the second floor walls. The mattress is covered only with a single sheet and duvet, no mattress cover. The water drains OUTSIDE of the shower to the bathroom floor drain in front of the toilet in the “not deluxe” rooms. The ceiling had a leak in the first room we were in. We were moved to the “deluxe” room where the water drained INSIDE the shower, otherwise everything was the same. On our last night, we were asked to move to another room because someone else paid to have the deluxe room. Not only did the shower drain OUTSIDE in this 3rd room, the sink had a major leak which poured water out by your feet to the drain in front of the toilet. Also, they use a solar water heater, so if you don’t bathe early or it is a rainy day, you shower with tepid water. Had it not been for DOLINA being SO KIND, we would have stayed at a different hotel.

• Gordon (8/5): Very good -
• Nick (8/5): Good location near the airport - Very close to the airport, room was good. Friendly staff, free cold/hot water machines on every floor. Owner arranged a rental car for us, easy!
• Santa (6/5): Pleasant -
• Makoto (6/5): Good. - This hotel is near the airport. We can walk to the hotel. Staffs are so nice people. It is better to clean rooms more.
• Kaneko (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kaneko (2/5): Very poor - I like it because it is close to the airport I booked online a Price and they charge me more when I get there
• Sarita (8/5): Excellent location and staff - Close to the airport and very kind staff Quirky room, no elevator, moldy smell
• John (6/5): Good place for a short stay if you want to be close to the airport. - Close to airport, had a good restaurant Could use a little renovation- not a bad place but don’t expect luxury.
• Sharon (2/5): Won’t stay here again! - That it was next to the airport. That they had box springs instead of a mattress to sleep on. Very uncomfortable. TV didn’t work right. Having to climb 3 sets of stairs with a bad knee even though we asked for 1st floor.
• Bjoern (4/5): Far from everything but the airport, and very poor cleaning - Good air-conditioning, and shower, close to the airport for arrival and departure, restaurant on the first floor. My first room didn't have linen on the bed. Cleaners had gone home so I was moved to another room. This one had bed linen, but no towels! Ok, I got the towels from the previous room. Then I discovered a laptop backpack hanging on the faucet in the shower. And 3 of 4 towels had brown stains. Luckily there was one ok one, and I threw the backpack out. This must be some of the poorest cleaning I have seen. Bed was comfortable, but this was unfortunately disappointing. Trying out the restaurant downstairs one of the days I ordered sweet and sour pork. Again - the most disappointing thing arrives. Pork , yes, but that's also it. Not a vegetable. Not a nut. Just a few slices of pork in sauce. With rice. Wouldn't go again.
• Fangli (10/5): Exceptional - Staffs were the best!
• Michael (6/5): the number of hotels is limited at Kolonia so it was ok for 2 nights - 5 minutes walk from the airport - a little expensive for a 2* hotel - restaurant opens at 10.3am so no breakfast served
• Alan (7/5): Good - Inside is better than it looks from outside! Room was big and spacious. Restaurant is not open for breakfast, and there are no other places nearby.
• Georgios (8/5): Very good - It's not that bad. It's close to the airport on foot. The owner surprised me by welcoming at the airport. They also have a nice decent restaurant which attracts a lot of people. The hotel arranges for just two dollars a taxi for Kolonia downtown.
• Trizia (10/5): Exceptional - The staff and hotel owner are very accommodating. The food delivery was fast. The front desk is polite, They forgot to pick me up at the airport which I stated on my request but the good thing is they gave me a ride going back to the airport. It didn't affect my rating to this hotel because they're quiet busy on that day as well.
• Connie (5/5): Passable - Close to airport. No elevator. 1st room I was put in was very dirty and had ants. 2nd room was a little better. The hardest beds I have ever encountered in all my travels. Resulted in no sleep.
• Rasha (1/5): Bad -
• Paul (8/5): Staff make this the best stay, of many trips across the Pacific. - Staff were exceptional, for a small remote NW Pacific location. The Manager Weiping went out of his way to make me feel comfortable and supported. No breakfast on site. Restaurant was only available after 10am. Hotel was isolated at the port, but staff will to run me around, taxis cheap, and had a rental car for 3 days.
• John (3/5): Poor -
• Yamada (10/5): Exceptional - I love this hotel!!!!
• Alberto (10/5): Exceptional -
• Anonymous (5/5): Passable -
