Clean and comfortable bed.
Great staff that were very helpful.
Good location close to airport and walkable into the small town.
I recommendation this small hotel to travellers.
It was a clean comfortable room. Staff were great and very accommodating
The food was excellent and the best iced coffee ever.
Perfect stop to the airport
The room was neat and tidy with every essential amenity one needs after flying into Liberia. Staff were friendly and responsive via WhatsApp for late check in. I had a smooth and restful stay.
The neighbors rooster woke us up a couple times in the night, but the hotel itself and staff were perfect. It was just what we needed and happened to be right next to our car rental place (Payless).
This isn't a fancy place, but it was clean, safe, cozy, close to the airport and the people were exceptionally friendly! I highly recommend staying here!
Exceptionally clean, quaint. Very spacious rooms available! Attached to Hotel Karao is quaint Coffee Shop Karao, Small outdoor patio, great coffee and wonderful Chocolate Banana Bread and many other baked breakfast food items. Bottled water, Front Desk and coffee shop staffed 7am-5pm. Check in 24/7, but you will be given code to retrieve room keys after about 5 pm. Phone number of local owners to help is posted if you have an issue. Staff was exceptional and friendly. Very clean and attentive. Amazingly responsive in helping contact Taxi and shuttles - even less expensive bus service right out front. Karao Hotel is a budget stay that’s clean with attached coffee shop and treats, This is great place on a quaint, small scale! Yes a rooster nearby announcing sunrise early. I loved it - great rural feel but 5 minutes from airport. We plan to stay again night before we fly out next week.
Clean, very modest hotel along a road that is quite busy (noisy) during traffic time. Staff very kind and accommodating. On site coffee shop (Ticoffee) offers an interesting menu.
The place over whole is ok looking very clean, however the sheet were old and seems dirty there was hair from previous travellers we had to sleep on the towels , the place has lots of potential. Location is very good to airport and staff were very attentive to open the place , don’t worry once you there it’s easy to access.
Hotel is conveniently located on a main access road with nearby restaurants and beaches. Hotel room was spacious and comfortable which included cold AC.

Staff very helpful during our stay when the Liberia Airport was closed
Breakfast was amazing. The road was noisy outside but there isn't much you can do about that. Nice place for a quick stay.

Close to LIR
The staff is great! Smooth check-in.
The AC never seems to get very cool. That is my only complaint. Karao is a convenient, hospitable place to stay! Thank you…ciao, until next time!
Staff service was excellent. The room was clean. The breakfast was spectacular and the portion was perfect.
You may listen noise at night because it is too close to the highway, but in general it’s a great stay.
Lovely stay close to the airport in Liberia. It is a very comfortable boutique hotel. Large rooms, comfortable beds, working AC. Bring your own soap etc. easy check in between 7am-8pm. Be sure to prearrange hours beyond these listed. Street noise during waking hours but quiet at night. Lovely cafe downstairs.
