The Shady Rest Hotel in Port Moresby is much like a Motel 6 hotel in the United States. It offers simple rooms with the basic equipment: double bed, a writing desk and chair, a flat screen color TV, and a bathroom with a shower. Of course, being in super pricey Port Moresby, the room rate is more than four times... More

We were initially quite worried having chosen the only reasonably priced hotel in Port Moresby. We had read some of the reviews on here and didn't know what quite to expect.

Whilst the hotel is quite old, the cleaning maids do try and make the best of cleaning it. However, the scent of chemicals used to clean the toilet can be quite strong... More

When checking with the customer service staff was told that I did not have a booking. All the... More
