This was booked for a single night close to the airport as arrived later. Picked a basic room and it was very dated as was the property. Plus sides - clean and comfortable bed. Walked to the car rental the next morning.

No elevator. Stairs narrow and steep. Room is single occupancy only. Hotel advertised as resort quality but is actuality in the center of the capitol city in Kauai. As a visitor I will never return to this hotel.

I didn't like anything. I think they put their own reviews in. Room was ok but it is noisy, people wandering around outside for no apparent reason and the AC unit (tiny window unit) wouldn't cool down the 500 sq ft room. We asked for early check in and they refused because room wasn't ready AC. $200+ wasted. Do not rent here.

When we first walked in, I noticed a stain on the toilet seat. We were exhausted and thought it was just a discoloration or something, didn't think much of it, but to make myself feel better, I took a disinfectant wipe to wipe the seat down AND THE STAIN CAME OFF. I think it may have been blood. We didn't mention it to staff because we clearly took care of it ourselves, but still gross. There was also no soap or shampoo of any kind, so be prepared to get your own or bring your own. The shower was way too strong, and there was no way to make the water come out without blasting you, any attempts to adjust the shower head made it worse. The room we had was small, but we expected that, but the air conditioner unit was so loud it sounded like a helicopter in our room making it hard to sleep. It's also in a noisy area, this probably doesn't happen all the time, but right outside our room they were doing utility work on a Saturday morning. Then there were loud garbage trucks. The walls are extremely thin and our neighbors were loud and stayed up late; there are no phones in the room to call the front desk, and the front desk didn't have hours during that time to call on our cell, and we didn't want to potentially get in an altercation with other guests so we just tried our best to ignore their noise. Not a relaxing place to stay.
