Property located in central Kona and a close walk to shops and grocery stores. Good breakfast for a Holiday Inn. Be aware that parking spots are a little tight if you have a van or large SUV. Washing machines and dryer onsite are a little tired and could be replaced. Took two cycles in the dryer to get the job done. Overall would definitely stay again.
