8/10 Good
"Really enjoy my stay. Room was clean. Always staff member at front desk incase need assistance. No machine to check in or out instead actual human, I'm old school so truly appreciate that. Outstanding breakfast available for a fair price. There is laundry machine, unfortunately only one washer and one dryer. Overall worth the stay. Aloha!"
