I’ve been at Kaua’i Inn and enjoyed it in the past. This was the first I was placed into an ADA room as it seemed to suit someone in a wheelchair. The room had less furniture. I wish I had a small table or counter to better do my computer work. When I re-book, I will be sure to request a normal room.

This place really shows its age. Lots of wear in my room and all around. Also, it's very secluded. Not easy to get to the beach or tourist area. But the staff are outstanding. The welcome bottle of wine was super nice. And the live music on the courtyard area is really cool. Overall. I would stay there again.
