Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travelers who prefer laid-back accommodations with a personal touch. Usually family run, these hosts will provide local recommendations and even optional meals. Guest houses sometimes feature a cozy living room or a garden – and are still cheaper than most regular hotels.
This apartment is spacious, clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Noman is a great host. The gated entrance makes you feel very safe.
Family style hostel, excellent service, organised scooters and have great advice and history about the nation. Great location, really safe to walk around even at night. Stores nearby to buy all snacks and drinks. Owner is welcoming and wants the best for guests. Thank you! Will be back
The build quality, amenities, large tv screen and Netflix, separate bathrooms, back up generator, comfortable beds and bedding, air-conditioners and fans, ventilation vents, cleanliness and full stock of condiments in the kitchen in a prime location mean one of the best stays for price in Dili. Also a great host.
Considering Timor Leste's standards, this hostel is a very reasonable choice. It's definitely not the most comfortable accommodation, but it is quite cheap compared to other options in the city, and above everything else the people working there are very helpful: they clearly went out of their way to help me out with whatever issue I had. This hostel absolutely feels like the place where a backpacker should stay in Dili.
Great location. Easy to walk to or get taxis from. Very clean. Friendly and helpful staff. Quiet.
Safe. Great airport transfer service. Staff were great in helping us book taxis and provide local information.
Noman is a very accommodating host who live in a separate dwelling on the premises. The duplex itself is a well appointed, spotlessly clean building, with two bedrooms upstairs each with its own ensuite. A well appointed kitchen and sitting room downstairs with gas hob, microwave, large refrigerator complete the picture. Great location within walking distance to most government buildings with several supermarkets nearby
- location quiet but yet relatively central;
- rooms simple but functionally furnished and clean;
- the host Mokul really cares about his guests: organising SIM card, scooter (privat), bus connections etc;
- easy going and contacting fellow travellers:
--> very nice stay in a friendly neighbourhood
This is the cheapest option in Dili, and by standards of accommodation in the area is good value.
The host is friendly and helpful.
There is actually some WiFi at reception which is rare here.
Location is good.
Room is quiet and dark to sleep at night.
Despite all the issues we would probably end up staying here again just because everything else is so unaffordable. But we would also probably just not come back to this city until better accomodation was available at our price point.
