This hotel lack many things:
- shower didnt work properly
- a lot of mosquito
- room small compared with price
- noise in the night from outside and there may be rats running in the roof
But consider it operate in Timor, it might be great in relative standard
The service people tried so hard to make everything work the best they could. They gave extra water and fruit.
I understand their conditions.
I gave all full score to cheer up.

Decent location, a few good restaurants close by. Amazing staff and friendly people everywhere. Can use credit card to pay (Visa only) but a percentage surcharge fee is added.
Dili is a work in progress. Lots of building construction and road works mixed with dust, traffic of motor scooters, cars, minibuses, pedestrians all competing for space. Walking along footpaths can be hazardous as they can be very uneven with open grates and trip hazards including building rubble.
The beach front has a nice outlook across the sea.
A visit to the Resistance Museum was interesting yet sad, with an informative display on the Indonesian invasion in 1975 plus the following years of their occupation.
People are very friendly and interested in where one is from, even asking to have their photos taken. They appreciate it when you try to say thank you and good day in the local language of Tetum which includes some Portuguese.
To experience more of Timor-Leste, it would be good to travel out of Dili to other towns such as Baucau, Balibo and Same, all quite lovely with fresh air and villages. The main roads all across Timor-Leste have varying degrees of good to rough roads.
Dili is definitely a place of change.

Microlet mini bus 10 turn 12 to cristo Rey, at the moment they are upgrading the steps so u cannot use them, but you can scramble up the side of the hill, keep both hands free, it’s tricky if you’re not mobile
If looking for a kind and honest taxi driver you can call Rafael 773 77 597 or 753. 61202

Dili is easy to get around and there is plenty to see particularly if you are interested in East Timor's recent history, you can see where tragic events in the liberation struggle happened and the museums are well presented.
There are excellent beaches, good places to eat with local food at reasonable prices.
Try to get to the moonlight cinema on Friday night-you can sit by the beach and have a meal while watching a film.

Fantastic .I had a great time.
Fantastic .I had a great time. Could have stayed much longer and checked out more places and looked around more. The history of this place is off the scale and at times very confronting. The people were very friendly to us and surprised to see us travelling on the microlets.Which the easiest and best way to get around the city. Otherwise you pay a fortune in taxis. As an Australian the exchange rate at the time was woeful .Was a bit expensive as all in US dollars.

Make sure you take enough cash in $US, it’s very hard to find a place that takes credit cards (and if so it’s VISA only) and there don’t seem to be any foreign exchange places. Global roaming doesn’t work either.

Stayed for 4 days and 3 nights over Easter 2023.
Stayed for 4 days and 3 nights over Easter 2023. It was a great place to wind down - walked up to the Cristo Rei statue, all of 570 steps, well worth it. Visited the Santa Cruz Cemetery - sadly not much signage about the massacre in 1991 - however can read up on the internet before going there. Went to Areia Beach, beautiful soft, clean white sand - suitable for swimming. Also visited the Timor Plaza Shopping Centre to buy a simcard and phone credit to call the blue taxi as required. Stayed at the Plaza Hotel (not the one at the Shopping Centre, there is one closer to the seaside). Accommodation was safe, clean and comfortable with a Chinese restaurant adjoining the accommodation - meal times are very flexible. Loved the lush tropical vegetation and the mountains and sea, stunning scenery. It's easy to see that Dili is still developing, great improvements in infrastructure, services and business will no doubt forge ahead in the future. I would recommend Dili for solo travellers, safe to walk around in the day time.
- All the staff are professionally friendly and very helpful including front desk, restaurant bar, shuttle bus and housekeeping staff. Special mentions for Mana Rita and Maun Jefrey for their positive energy and accommodating customer service.
- Comfortable, clean and spacious hotel rooms
- Good hot and cold variety of breakfast buffet included
- Safe, secure and convinient location
- Relatively good dining options within small steps away from hotel
- Airport shuttle bus and shuttle bus to local town beach included
The service as excellent. The hotel restaurant had great food. Also hotel organised taxis and airport drop off. I would definitely recommend this place. Excellent location and great view!
