Host asked us to pay extra state tax after we settled and paid total rental amount to airbnb, that extra amount was 17.8% on the rental cost.
So we ended paying $389 plus $57 more per night for a one bedroom ( more then expected).
We think the host was sneaky , unclear. We asked Airbnb interfere, they tried but ended saying that they can't help since it's A New State Tax, although we booked this place before this New State Tax apply in Hawaii. We booked another place at the same time for our son without this State Tax charged on us just because we booked it before this State Tax was apply in Hawaii, so as our friends. We find it's UNFAIR to us.
One night I went to the bathroom and found a cockroach crawling on the wall , that totally freeked me out, but I didn't let the Host know only make him feel uncomfortable.
Otherwise this place is convenient.
