It was just... okay. Friendly staff, room was average, kinda dated, location was great, easy to find. For what you pay I'd expect a nicer experience but I guess everything in Hawaii is outrageously expensive. Wifi also didn't work which they kindly refunded the hotel fee for, but still, I wasn't impressed.

We had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The staff was very welcoming and the facilities, pool and hot tub, were a relaxing option after a day of exploring this beautiful area, swimming and snorkeling in its beautiful beaches. I appreciated their delicious free Kona coffee, a must-try Hawaiian specialty.
