We needed a 1 night accommodation and this fit the bill. Staff was super friendly, the room was cute and clean. I would highly recommend if you need somewhere to lay your head without all the extra amenities!

Misleading the room shown on Expedia to what you got. The room was dark and isolated with two tiny windows on each side of the bed. It is as like a dark dungeon away from all the other rooms. We saw it and never stayed there we booked at another hotel. I have booked with Expedia numerous times but after this I will be looking at other companies. Going to a tropical island I don’t expect to stay in a dark back room with no natural light. Very disappointed with Expedia

Average quality rooms and below average bathroom

The place is clean but the room rates are very expensive for the outdated bathroom and amenities and cramped room. There is no hand held shower except for head shower so not easy to clean yourself after a beach day. Their customer service was good and the location is central being only 5 minutes from Lihui airport but the pillows mattress and bathrooms and towels were not comfortable and very low quality.

Clean and nice to have an outdoor seating area. The tubs didn’t hold water which was a bit hard with kids. Definitely dated but clean I only started 2 nights it would not be comfortable for a week

Quaint Hotel, close to our activities

My only complaint is that some rooms don't have air conditioning, only a fan. The rooms with airconditioning were more money, not much, but it would have been nice to know before booking the less expensive room

Good stay

Older hotel, but very clean room … bathroom a bit small for today’s standards, but again very clean and usable. Quiet setting. We were able to park about 20 feet from our door, which made getting luggage in and out easy. The hotel worked very well for our purposes. Would stay again and definitely recommend.
