We didn't end up staying at Victor's place for the entire duration of our Hawaii trip because the room wasn't as great as we hoped for; there isn't AC, the bathroom is quite dirty when we got there, and there was a cockroach in one of our shirts that we hung on the hanger.. HOWEVER, Victor was a great guy. We met him briefly and he was extremely accommodating and willing to let us borrow equipment if we needed. We also got to use the electric plate to cook.
