It was as expected. I personally felt like it was really hot even with the AC on, but my husband felt completely fine so I guess it’s a preference thing. You can hear everything from outside if people are walking by or talking near the unit, but it’s pretty quiet in the area in general. We pretty much only heard people and their kids coming and going. No party noise or anything like that. It’s also in a convenient location! If you don’t like bugs, keep everything in the fridge, even drinks. It’s definitely like island vibes here so if you’re expecting hotel accommodations then stay in a hotel. Otherwise, it’s a good option for staying in Kihei!
