Just alright. Would not come back.
The room was alright. Quite small. $117 for a late checkout (1/3 cost of the room for 3 extra hours). We were working all day so would not come back when you're stuck in a dark room. There's nothing nearby except a beach. There was a patio but the table was very off center. The one highlight was the free coffee, lemon water, and snacks. That's a great touch.

Maui trip
The ladies at the desk were so sweet and wonderful. The room was clean and simple which was what we needed since we didn’t stay in the room for long. We loved how the beach was right across the road and not far from places to eat and shop. It’s not a very fancy hotel however it was extremely nice and great for what we needed.

The beach is really pretty in this area, but it gets REALLY windy in the afternoon. Go to the beach in the morning (go to the areas with the palm trees—SO BEAUTIFUL) and go do other things after the wind comes in. The pool is cute and intimate (small). The hot tub was out of order, but it was too hot for hot tubbing anyway. We had so much fun at this property. They let you use their beach umbrellas, chairs and coolers for free.

Great place to stay
For what it is it is great. Had a kitchen a bedroom and everything we needed. Definitely an old property but you get what you pay for and I would stay here again.
