  World Class Diving

  Although we had the time of our lives diving in Palau. This hotel is is not worth a second stay. There's a public park just outside the front balcony, and the locals party there almost every night. The music, and loud voices sometimes went on till early morning. The front parking lot is used by the auto repair shop across the street to park their junk cars. There are a lot better options for the price.

  Good Price, Don't expect much

  We ended up staying at West Plaza Coral Reef Hotel because Palasia was full and they had vacancies. You get the basic necessities here, a clean room, bed, shower. That's about it. They advertised ocean views, which is true, but our room overlooked a barbed-wire junk card full of cars and then the ocean. It is at the end of a road, and only one restaurant near-by with mediocre food, it is a bit of a hike or about at $5 cab ride up to the city and restaurants. Not sure I'd walk around the area alone at night. The room had a tv, but it never worked. The room had a safe, but it never worked. The room we rented was advertised as a "suite", it had a fridge and stove, no microwave, and no cooking ware, no silverware, not even a coffee pot, so not sure how much vacation travelers could do with this kitchenette. You need to request the room be cleaned, this was not a daily service. We had a flight that departed Palau at 2am, they schedule a shuttle that came by on time to go to the airport. The front desk staff was rude, and would not request payment when we checked in, but was very demanding that we come down that instant to pay before check-out, which was very ackward.

  Glad my stay was <24hrs

  We stayed here overnight as we couldn't board our live aboard until the day after our late night arrival. I was with a group of 12 underwater photographers, each with 3-4 large luggage bags. The first complaint was that the lobby for check-in was up stairs and the lift for luggage was tiny so it took a very long time and manual labor for us to get all our luggage from the ground floor up to the lobby. Although there was a person behind the desk to check us in, they completely disappeared after they had checked us in. So we had no way to buy bottled water as the refrigerator in the lobby was locked and there were no employees to unlock it. I wouldn't have normally cared, but there were actually signs in the bathrooms saying not to use the faucet water, meaning we needed bottle water, which we did not have. So, no way to brush teeth. Once in the room, it had a small kitchen and basic amenities but everything was old, out-dated and everything just felt dirty. I found bugs and human hair in the bathroom (that wasn't ours) and was honestly worried about sleeping in the bed and the cleanliness (or lack of) of the sheets. There was very little space for the two of us and our luggage. If we had been staying for longer than 24hrs, we would have had essentially no space to walk as we each had two large checked bags and carry-on bags that literally took up all the available floor space if we didn't have them on the beds. I don't care how cheap it was, I will never put myself in that situation again. The room had a balcony and was quiet at night. We did not try the shower as we left as soon as we could once we got up the next morning. There was nowhere that we could find in the vicinity to grab breakfast before we left and there was no one behind the desk for us to ask for suggestions or help.

  Worth the money

  It is tucked away from "downtown" and that's about 5min worth of driving. Room came fully equiped for simple breakfast cooking, tv, fridge etc. For my needs on this trip it was a perfect match. Josie was extremely helpful and accommodating in every way, so 6 stars for friendliness! Would certainly book again.

  Excellent stay in Palau

  This apartment was suggested and organized by Fish 'N Fins. It is not luxurious but it totally met our needs. The bed was comfortable, the bathroom is huge and the small kitchen was sufficient. We were in the 4th floor and had a good view on the ocean. Necessary to mention that there was no shower curtain but there is a hardware store around the corner. Also one has to organize bed linen and towels ourselves. This is certainly something to improve on. The price though was extremely competitive. It is an little bit away from the centre and we did not have a car, so we walked a lot. There are several laundromats very close, therefore doing the laundry is quite convenient. The hotel offer such a service as well but going to the laundromat saves much money. Yes, sometimes it was very noisy outside because the locals meet there. However the balcony door keeps all sounds away and inside it was very calm. We stayed for 3 weeks and did not mind washing the dishes and cleaning the apartment ourselves.
