The view of the room can certainly grant a 5 star rating as a starting point, comparing to other places at a similar price (hotel or Airbnb). I would like to explain why I deduct 1 star. I have read the reviews before I made the reservation. I expected the building and the room to be "old". However, it's still "older" than my expectation. It's the reason for 0.5 star deduction. There were water shutdown twice during my 5 days' stay. I was notified the shutdown the first time, but not the 2nd. This is the reason for another 0.5 star deduction. I discussed with my wife and we agreed that this place is still a solid choice if we come back to Maui again.
