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.

The Transit Motel is what it says on the tin - a nice place to stay for a night near the airport before moving on to the next stop. The staff is very friendly and helpful, the facilities clean and tidy.

Awesome place.
Awesome to have such a nice and affordable place to stay closer to the airport and wharf. The staff are very helpful and the hotel also have a transport available for the airport and to the wharf. Keep up the good work and thank you all.

A very pleasant safe quiet stay.
It was a very pleasant short stay of about 9hours. My flight arrived pass midnight and the staff were very kind to allow me an extra hour and forty five minutes stay pass checkout time. My next flight check-in time was midday. I actually slept comfortably. Transfer to airport was great too. Clean and neat room with essential amenities available and nice cooling AC. WiFi is free and with excellent speed. Friendly staff and quiet safe environment. I would definitely stay here again when I needed to be close to the airport.

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.

The reviews are fair
I normally get harassed several times by hotels.com to review my stays. Interesting I didn’t get asked to review this one. You might think they don’t want too many reviews. I read the ones on here. I think they’re fair. It’s cheap, it’s close to the airport. It’s rough AF
