The staff is what made it special. We had electrical problems but they let us use another room’s kitchen until it was fixed. They have snorkels to borrow and other beach toys. The pool is very nice. Our balcony was great where we spent most of our room time.
Our stay was better than our initial reaction to the property. Accommodation is at the back of a car hire company /residence. The room was large, and the beds were comfortable. The pool needs renovating but is still usable. Supermarket very close by and only 10 minute walk to waterfront. The staff were helpful, they recommended Pitate (Chinese) restaurant, it was very close by and the food was good. Staff also drove us to the airport for a very reasonable price.
This property is very minimal and simple. Didn’t feel like the area was safe. Only a sheet on the bed . The blanket in the closet was from the airlines and very small ! Not meant for a bed. Roosters crowing at all hours and dogs are barking . This is for the budget conscious those not sensitive to noise

Room was clean and spacious. No hot water in the shower. Roosters in the area are very noisy until late evening and again very early in the morning.
After making loops around the block 3 times and trying alleyways - I could not find even a marked door or house. There was no number to call for directions, and there's no map in instructions/booking confirmation. It's a very dangerous neighborhod, should not be on hotels.com in my opinion- there was literally a fight in the middle of the main street as we were pulling up.
Our second time staying here after a cruise. Easy walk to town and helpful staff.

If you need a place to stay for one night this might be a good choice for you. The room was very small with only one window facing the street so there was really no privacy unless the curtains were shut. The water leaked in the bathroom around the toilet so one of the shower rugs was always wet. They only gave one roll of toilet paper for my two nights today in the kitchen was less than minimal. The refrigerator did keep my food and water cold so that was good and the air conditioning was just fine considering it was 89° out. I didn't want to go into the pool because it didn't look very kept up, unfortunately because that was one reason why I wanted to stay there because it had a pool. The staff was nice but not overly friendly.
Our room had no place to hang clothes and yet there was a large space where a tub used to be. That would be perfect for a coat rack or even some thing on the wall where you can hang hangers. There was no lighting above the bathroom mirror. The girls at reception were very friendly and helpful.
Small facility tucked into an alley off Main Street easy walk to Marche de Papeete and other shopping. The staff were very accommodating and went out of their way to help. The property is older and isn’t luxury it’s great for the budget minded

The pros: Our room was large and had good climate control (air conditioning is very important here!). There was a mini fridge and microwave as well as storage space. There was space to park our rental car, and food marts within walking distance. We could also walk to the Papeete waterfront and market fairly easily. There was outdoor sitting space specific to our room.
The cons: This hotel is extremely difficult to find and does not have good signage. The unmarked road looks like an alley. I contacted them about late check-in but did not receive instructions. We searched in the dark to find a bell to wake up the worker after a long search for the hotel. It is quite noisy but most of that is from the wild chickens and local dogs. The lock to our room door was broken so involved a complicated system of angling the door and using a padlock for security. The bathroom had no towel bars and a loose toilet seat, but it was clean.

there were smashed/cracked windows/discoloured perspex in the door instead of glass, outside light shone in all night. cutlery not clean, no washing up liquid, tea towel, can opener or cork screw. Floor mats not clean. Hire car business on the premises so cars always in and out and reversing. Freezer compartment so frozen door wouldn't close, then fridge door wouldn't close, I asked them to defrost the freezer, it was very hot weather. I had to buy ice every day because the freezer couldn't be used but it wasn't done.

This place is very convenient and walking distance to town to restaurants the market of Papeete.
As for cleanness: The rooms need deep cleaning and some touch ups in the rooms.
The staffs are awesome. Specially the owners, they are very nice, they treat you like family.
My next trip, I will definitely come back and stay in this place again.
Thank you so much.
The people at Tea Tahiti Holidays are welcoming and accommodating. I sat in the shade near mango, plumeria, and papaya trees, beside a refreshing pool, and chatted briefly with other guests.
The owner told me where to find food and offered to drive me to the airport when I leave for less than a taxi.
I had my own table and chairs in the shade, where I ate and read.
Nice budget spot in a great location in Papeete. Many restaurants and stores in walking distance. Staff were very helpful with us for finding great tours in the area. Can't go wrong for the price. Would definitely recommend.
