Photos of the botel are very misleading. We booked 2 double rooms. 1 was much smaller than the other and missing hand towel. There were blood stains above the toilet roll paper. The duvet was stained. The bed had broken springs. There was mould in each of the corners. It was absolutely awful. We used a chair to block each door as the locks rattled and did not feel safe. Also when you walk along the corridor its slanted as the floor is not straight. And no lighting. A number of lights were out. Don't stay here. Coming from the Hilton Moorea where it was lovely this was awful. Thankfully only 1 night stay before we flew out.

Easy and fast place to stay in if you want to go directly to the ferry the next morning. But keep a look out. It’s not a 4 star hotel. Doors open with one metal key. Not a key card. The elevator is a bit small so just 2 people and 4 small bags of luggage will fit. They do have a little food Resturant down near the lobby. But it’s nothing special. Convenient if you just want to stay there and not spend a lot.

We stayed two nights before taking the ferry to Moorea. The hotel is a short walk to the downtown (5-10 minutes, maybe 15 to the Papeete market). Affordable, clean, good AC and staff was helpful.

Sarah Nui is a nice budget hotel. Personnel are very nice. The Ferry Harbor is very close. Wi-fi did not work in the room but was fine in the lobby. Water in the shower was a bit cold. A good experience overall.

Nothing fancy, but comfortable and clean hotel with friendly, welcoming staff. The place is showing its age, with some missing fixtures in the shower and bathroom, but our room was clean and comfortable. There's a lot of construction going on around the hotel, so getting around on foot is a bit rocky. However, the location, just a few blocks from the ferry terminal, makes it an ideal location for short stopovers between island hops. The onsite cafe has great pastries and a nice assortment of entrees for breakfast, lunch, dinner or just snacks. A good value and our main complaints were minor - the traffic noise outside and the loud closings of the very solid room doors.

Don't arrive expecting a 5-star resort, that's not this hotel. But it's a quarter or less of the cost too. It was perfect for my needs. Easy walk to restaurants and shops by the port. Free parking. I had a car so was out exploring the island every day, leaving in the morning and not returning until evening. Kind staff - Vainui and Jeanne (sorry if I mispelled) were lovely and made sure all was good.

This may be ok for an over night between destinations, but not for a multiple night stay. Bed was gross, I wish I had never opened the drapes which revealed how dingy and dirty the linens were. However I had to as the only light was a flickering fluorescent. The mattress had some dark, dark reddish brown stain. It was disgusting. I was awoken to the nightly street races that took place every night around midnight- 2 am Staff in the “restaurant” were very nice though.
