  • We stayed in clean, budget accommodations - the Guest Lodge Motel in central Koror, Palau.  "The Guest Lodge Motel offers a nice and clean place to stay if you just need a place to sleep and relax between days of outdoor activities.  Note that the building looks a bit shoddy from the outside, because the top floor is not finished. Rooms have AC, refridgerator, Cable TV, 130 V as well as 230 V power outlets, shower/bath, towels etc." [Wikitravel.org]
