It’s a good hotel to just sleep at. Not many amenities though. It’s in a great area within walking distance to many restaurants and shops. Parking is rather far and not convenient.

Small and quaint. Needs some TLC. It may have been cleaner than it looked because of some maintenance that needs to be done, especially in the bathroom. There was a bad odor when you enter the room. You got used to it. But noticed there were plug-in air fresheners all down the hallway. So it smelled good in the hall, which probably made the room smell worse.

Good location / good value

Love staying at the hotel. Convenient and comfortable. Staff are friendly and helpful. While it's an older style hotel its is clean and the services are all we needed for this stay. Plan to stay here again on our next trip to Hawaii.
