Really enjoyed my stay here and my time in Honolulu in general. Staff was super friendly and helpful. And the host learned my name so every day after I'd get back from a whole day out the host would say "hey Jo-Anne, tell me where did you go today?" and then she'd have a recommendation for me for my next day of adventures. Rooms were super clean and so were the bathrooms. I never really used the kitchen except for one day but it was clean as well. Property and neighbourhood were quiet and near bus stops. I will definitely be back for my next stay in Honolulu

They need more electrical plugs and some fans in the 8 bed dorm. The 4 bed was much more comfortable than the 8. Also most HI hostels set out ear plugs in the lobby, and I didn't see any here.

Thank you for your review. We are trying to save money to re wire the main building (about $15,000) so there should be ample plugs and electricity through the building. We have earplugs in the office - just needed to ask. Be safe during this pandemic! Take care!
