This place defines unethical & locals don't approv

We have been investigating hotels and at the end, started investigating hostels and found them to be blatantly violating State and Federal laws, as well as openly practicing discrimination, even so far as putting people who were houseless andor victims of the Lahaina Wildfires out of a room canceling their reservation because they specifically "with a smile don't serve that kind". Now locals are watching those who stay here because it has been alleged by a few sources this hostel hosts people of a sacred cult that has been implicated in more than two different major crimes, not including the discrimination crimes not housing or allowed local residents, even when others accomodations aren't available or even during a federal disaster.

Great Hostel! This one rivals European Hostels which is encouraging for USA. It is close to everything and they really make it a fun environment. I felt myself and my stuff was safe. Very clean. One staff member, I think her name was RiRi (German) who worked late night helped me with ideas for sights to see and I shared some of my suggestions for travel as well. Staff was great and surprised at all the activities they provided. Will def recommend.
