Absolutely loved staying here! I was here for 4 nights mostly to sleep. During the day I was out hiking around the island. Location is perfect because it's about halfway point on the island. Bed was comfy, it all felt private and safe, the staff was SO friendly and it was spotlessly clean. Parking was also easy. This is probably one of the best value stays on the island. I was expecting a rundown motel vibe but it's the opposite. It felt renovated, clean and with modern touches. If you're looking for a place to rest while you explore the beauty of this island rather than sit at a pool all day then stay here!!

A little basic, but fine for a room and shower.

I only needed the room for one night, so I didn't stay there long. It was fine for just a bed and a shower, but the bathroom was really small. Also, there is no elevator, so you may need to carry your luggage up a flight of stairs. Parking was hard to find when I arrived at 9 pm, but there were signs that parking was available behind the building.

Book at your own risk -- they bait and switch your booking. I booked a Deluxe Studio. The listing included a kitchenette and kitchenettes are featured widely in the photos of the property. When I arrived, my room did not have a kitchenette. It did not even have a coffee maker, and the mini fridge barely worked. I emailed the property to find a solution and they ignored my email. Upon check out I brought it up to the person at the front desk and she told me that "not all deluxe studios have kitchenettes". So despite me booking the correct room tier, they just chose not to give me the correct room. Basically they falsely advertised the accomodations.

It was adequate for one night and near the airport. A very small room, not what I was expecting from the pictures.

Hotel was clean enough and minimal staff contact was ok. But this was the smallest hotel room I’ve ever been in. We had to take turns getting around the bed from one side to the other. We were glad we had left our luggage behind since this was only one night for an early excursion the next morning. Those suitcases would not have fit anywhere!

I was pretty hesitant when booking this property due to the price but overall impressed. This is the perfect option for a short term trip. It has all of the essentials and super convenient, both things I was looking for. I love that there was nearby local places to eat and the unit had AC. When I come back to Hawai’i I will come back and stay here.
