Amazing location! We landed, took a taxi to this hotel with others and paid $13, went to the hotel. Next day, we walked to the ferry dock (literally less than a 5 minute walk), and went to Moorea! Best location.

Great hotel to stay at near the ferry, it is only a 5 minute walk to get to the ferry (just across the street). The room as very cold A/C which is nice. The rooms are a bit on the small side but very modern, new and clean. It is also a few minutes walk to the main outdoor market in Tahiti which is very convenient.

Small room, might not be comfortable for longer stays. Close by to lots of bar and restaurants which is great but can be loud overnight.

We just stayed at Mai Tai Express for a few hours because we had a very late flight out but our original hotel could not extend our stay and we just needed a place to be able to rest and shower. It was the perfect respite for those few hours.

Small rooms, but very efficient and clean. Very nice staff who took care of scheduling our taxi for the early trip to the airport. Convenient location, but a bit noisy. There is a rooftop bar a block away and you can hear the partying till the early morning hours. Probably not a problem if you are on the other side of the hotel.

The front desk was awesome. He was able to get us checked in a bit early and was very helpful. It was a short stay but perfect for what we needed. The room was a bit small but served the purpose

We missed a flight and had to come 2 days later, even though we could not get a refund on that short of a notice they graciously allowed us to switch days which was kind of them. Great hotel to stay at near the ferry, it is only a 5 minute walk to get to the ferry (just across the street). The room as very cold A/C which is nice. The rooms are a bit on the small side but very modern, new and clean. It is also a few minutes walk to the main outdoor market in Tahiti which is very convenient.

Stayed there for one night prior to boarding a cruise ship which was a short walk away. room was very basic but perfect for one night. The bed was comfortable; and the room had been updated and included a modern shower. A small continental breakfast cost extra but was worth the convenience. All this plus a very friendly staff made our stay perfect
