Fantastic

This hotel is absolutely amazing! Older buildings but redone. Currently repainting. Comfortable bed, very friendly atmosphere! People are fantastic! Owner Phillip is friendly and accommodating! Quiet! Maids friendly and trustworthy! Only negative is the roosters crowing, but they are protected so nothing can be done!

We loved the personal attention, travel tips and Hawaiian history from the owner. Breakfast every morning, with fruit from their property, was a treat and live evening music was enchanting. The property is being worked on so the quality likely differs between rooms. If we're lucky enough to visit Hawaii again, I would want to stay at the Kauaii Inn again.

The staff was super helpful and very friendly. They let us in hours early cleaning the room as soon as someone left. We had been stranded overnight in the airport and hadn’t slept and they let us in not earlier than our check in time and that was really appreciated. They also offered us breakfast when we showed up and let us Lounge around the pool, trying to catch some snoozes, really helpful and greatly appreciated.

We enjoyed our stay at the Kuaui Inn. The staff was wonderful, made us feel right at home. Property grounds are beautiful. The breakfast was Very nice each morning. I would have given this property 5 stars except the room is in need of updating and the cleaning could have been better.. The bathtub had a red strip of tape or something that looked like it had been removed the tub floor was black. The sink was gold plated and it looked dirty but it was just old. They’re brochure Said they freshen up every day and deep clean every three days. The housekeeper did knock and ask if we want our sheets changed which we accepted but they didnt sweep the floors or vacuum or mop. We usually pick up after ourselves everyday but we stayed a week and had to ask for clean towels several times because they didn’t come in to freshen up. This could be such a cute property but they need to update the bathroom areas and improve their housekeeping services.

The staff were nice. When I requested a blanket, one was delivered promptly. It was a very light blanket. The A/C is mounted rather high up on the wall, no remote. I selected this property because it advertised breakfast. It was a cold breakfast, no eggs or bacon. Cereal was available. More like a continental breakfast. My shower ran out of hot water about 2/3 of the way through. Finally, the A/C had a blue light and the curtains didn't block the outdoor lighting. Lots of light pollution in the room. Not likely to return to this property.

The property did not have basic facilities. They charged 5 dollars for a bottle of water. The drapes were not covering the windows properly ! There is just two piece of cloth that doesn’t cover the window and it gets really bright in the mornings causing discomfort. They don’t clean the room even after requesting twice
