Couldn’t have made a better choice in Dili for location, amenities, friendly staff and service.
Pros:

Breakfast had good range of items that were healthy and flavourful. Also was constantly available at 7 am which slowed me to travel for early work appointments. Buffet style is efficient. Also good Timor grown coffee.

Cons:

Would be nice to have some local food instead of all Western style.

Would not recommend.
Pros:

Centrally located near the port, mini mart a short walk away.

Cons:

(1) Room faced the main road and it was very noisy traffic (cars honking and a police officer whistling to manage traffic) almost the whole time. (2) Unresponsive staff - reached out multiple times two days prior to my stay over Booking.Com and email with my flight details to arrange for my airport transfer and no one replied. No WhatsApp number available. It was the customs officer who ended up calling the hotel’s driver directly (she knew him somehow) to have him come pick me up. (3) Inhospitable staff - I had a red eye flight and had to catch a 8am ferry the next day (which meant I needed to be at the port at 7am to purchase tickets and leave the hotel before 7). When I arrived I asked the lady at the check in counter if I could utilise my breakfast entitlement on that day (ie arrival day) instead of the day of my checkout because I was too tired to head out after a red eye flight, and I had to leave very early the next day. She had earlier informed that breakfast starts at 7am. She dismissed the request outright and rudely told me to pay if I wanted to have breakfast on the day of check in. (4) One of the lights in the bathroom wasn’t working. Pillow was stained.

A beautiful & luxurious outlier in Dili, with variable staff skills
Pros:

A beautiful colonial styled hotel, like something from a different world in the struggling streets of Dili. Luxurious.

Cons:

Front desk did not have our booking despite it being recorded and existing on booking.com. One receptionist kept questioning me as to why I had made a booking on another date then cancelled it, querying why I had changed room types and could I prove that I really had a booking (which I could)! The other receptionist was much cheerier and helped find our two rooms politely. Restaurant staff have poor English and are unable to explain basic elements of the menu (eg what is the difference between the three dishes all listed as “steak and chips”! But really this place is beautiful and ultra comfortable and totally unique in Dili, so it’s a no-brainer.
