It's dated and modest. However, this is what we were looking for during our short stay. It's recommended for long periods of stay as well. Instant coffee and water is available in the lounge. The staff is very helpful. I'm friendly and accommodating.

ダイビングで5泊宿泊させていただきました。レストランやスーパマーケットのエリアまでは片道徒歩10分弱ですが、朝から夕方までダイビングで毎日外出しているので不便さはありません。日本人スタッフが大方の時間いらっしゃるのでいろいろな相談も楽です。1階の部屋はフロント横なので、とてもラクでした。

ダウンタウンからはちょっと離れてるけどリーズナブルできれいな宿。

ダウンタウンからは少し離れていますが歩けない距離でもないし、通りから離れているので静かで、駐車スペースも余裕があります。ほぼほぼ頼み事も日本語で出来たので急な旅行には好都合でした。長期滞在すると近所のレストランは行き尽くしてしまうかなぁ、ってとこです。

Das Preisleistungsverhältnis stimmt. Es ist ein kleines in einer Sackgasse gelegenes Motel in ruhiger Lage. Die Zimmer sind sehr sauber. Die Klimaanlage hört man in den Zimmern nicht. Ich bin jetzt das 11. Mal in diesen Motel und fühle mich dort sehr wohl und würde dort immer wieder übernachten. Es ist besonders führ Singelreisende eine optimale Wahl.

The DW motel is conveniently located on the Main Street in downtown Koror. It is a no-frills, economy hotel in a convenient lopcation, and as long as you are not looking for resort amenities (and price!), this place is very good. The staff is friendly and helpful, and very good responding to inquiries. We were looking for a convenient, inexpensive, place to catch some sleep while waiting for a midnight flight home, and this place filled that role perfectly.

パラオに行ったらDW！

メインの通りから少し入ったところにあるので、静かに落ち着いて過ごせました。スタッフの皆さん、とっても良い方です。和みます。お部屋は清潔、シャワーは温水、水圧バッチリ。ロビーには本が沢山！空いた時間に、まったり読書！6泊しましたが、とっても居心地が良かったです。リピートしたいホテルです。

ダイビング目的の旅行に最適な宿

清潔で、こじんまりしていて、リラックスできる宿です。 ダイビング器材の洗い場と干し場、ロビーの無料の水、共用キッチンがあるのが助かりました。 客室内にもハンガーはたくさんあり、小さいタオル干しもあります。 ロビーでは缶ビールやジュースも販売してます。地ビールのレッドルースターもありました。レッドルースターは近所の商店では売っていなく、ハワイ銀行横のPaylessMarketまで行かないと手に入りませんでした。 ホテルスタッフも親切で素晴らしい宿だと思います。 レンタサイクルは現在貸出しを中止してるそうなので、ぜひ再開して頂けたらと思います。
