Very decent and loving place, from the pricing to the outside garden view. The area is very quiet and loved how you can bring your outside food to dine and drink beverages.

Pleasure to meet and greet with the amazing owner of Transit Motel. Gloria Samana Ausage and her team were very helpful and friendly to our family. We were able to check in early without any issues. Even though the room was not ready for us due to the previous guests were still checking out. Gloria and team were able to accommodate our last minute request. Thank you Gloria and Transit Motel for your generous hospitality and great customer service. I recommend this place to anyone visiting Samoa.

They provide a kettle, water and cutlery upon request. The toilet blocks the door if you are sitting on it. Lovely pool and pargola set up. Smoke area for smokers, ramp access to rooms. Air conditioning in #36 needs service. I'd recommend Transit for cost effective and safety, people are always monitoring the area you are never alone.
