Good hotel with potential
Pros:

The location was great.

Cons:

The staff was very kind and welcoming, which made the stay pleasant. However, the front desk did not manage to book transportation as requested the night before, which caused me to arrive late to important meetings.

The hotel itself is nice and has potential, but upon closer look there are details that could be improved: humidity on the wall in the room, pest control issues in the shower, and a pool with noticeable floating debris.

Overall, a comfortable stay with friendly service, though attention to detail and follow-through would greatly enhance the experience.

Highly recommend
Pros:

The breakfast was either by the pool if conferences were on or in the dining room, it was great. The room, pool exceeded expectations. I was visiting my son, most guests were there working. Amazing staff. Across the road a bar/restaurant where you can charge your room, overlooking the sea. Visited Hotel Timor which was also a choice and was so happy that I choose Novo, far exceeded other hotels. My son and I also did our dive certification for my 60th - perfect!

Cons:

I can't think of much. Having traveled luxuriously in the world this was perfect for what i expected in Dili.
