Positive:
Pool, good wifi and great cafe and bar to work in.
Negative:
The only thing was booking transport through the hotel was unreliable but someone always came to my rescue.
Summary: Best place in Dili. It’s not Bali - the standard of all accommodation is not great - plumbing is an issue everywhere you

Cool rooms. An air-conditioner that worked. Comfortable beds. Quiet room. Good meals, including complimentary breakfast. Staff were helpful.
Negative:
Pool was closed for maintenance, although we didn't see any maintenance occurring. Restaurant was nice but there was a lot of noise from the road. I suggest sit at the back overlooking the pool.
Summary: Welcome relief
