Pros:
* Right on the beach
* Relatively more affordable than other hotels in the area
* The restaurant on site is convenient, delicious, has exceptional service and right on the water with prices being fair (uncommon in Hawaii). 5 stars for the restaurant
* They don't charge extra for parking
Cons:
* The hotel is very understaffed - Expect to wait an hour if you are asking for anything (eg - a late checkout or checking in). Also, do not expect to be able to call them. They will put you on hold right when you call and you will be waiting indefinitely (until you hang up).
* Not maintained - They don't do the maintenance that they should nor do they care. For example, I had to change rooms because I tried to turn my TV on and my TV didn't work. From talking to employees, the reason why the building hasn't been maintained is because the owner is in construction and is "overwhelmed" by the amount of renovations this motel needs. The hotel is empty during the day because the tenants don't want to be in their pool or beach.
Overall, if you need an affordable place to sleep only -- this hotel will serve that purpose. If you are looking to "enjoy" your hotel, this is not the place.
