Comfortable, clean, quiet, convenient to restaurants and shops. Friendly check-in; called in advance and requested early check-in - they said they’d do their best to accommodate- and they did - was able to get keys to room a couple hours before official check in time. They also have locked luggage storage room for guests.

Spent one night on a 2 day excursion to the big island. Difficult to find because we used the address on the GPS but should have used the one on here. (Our directions took us the area NEXT to it but with one ways and fences we couldn’t get TO it). Once we figured it out, we were good. Parking was limited but the front desk helped us find a spot. Hotel was clean. Front desk was helpful. Felt safe. Breakfast was delicious!

A nice hotel in Kailua-Kona. A small pool area, bar, vending machines. Within 4-5 min walk to Alii Drive, the main strip in town. However immediately outside the hotel, it is somewhat limited. There is only one elevator and it can get busy at certain times of the day (eg. breakfast hour). Room rate included free breakfast ... in my case, biscuits & gravy, portugese sausage, scrambled egg, pancakes, bagels, cereals, yoghurt, juices, water, coffee. Reminded me of something you see at the Fairfield Inn breakfast. Room was pretty big, nice king sized bed, convenient outlets for recharging things. All in all, a very decent place to stay.

Area was nice and room was as well. The only issue is that it sounded like something was chewing its way into or out of the air conditioner. This continued even when it was off but stopped for a while if I made noise.
