So here is my thought on this. It’s a beautiful room and view is amazing. Dana did a wonderful job providing many things that can be used and I didnt use most of them except for the kitchen. I liked my stay but there are a couple things that I personally disliked enough that I feel the need to mention.
First, requesting extra payment to cover the taxes. Once you book, Dana will request additional taxes most of the time because of state tax rules. I understand that. It’s noted in the details as well but I didn’t really understand what she meant by that until I read a prior review that mentioned it. In my opinion, that’s poor taste and etiquette. If you are renting this out for whatever price you want to rent it for, make sure the amount covers your extra taxes enough so you aren’t asking the customers for more money. Most of the other places I was looking at during that time, had it built into their total.
The second issue is the Bathtub. When prior posts mention that it’s a bit of step to get into the tub, it’s a bit like you are climbing over a 2-foot wall or a bit taller. I am 5 foot, 5 inches tall and the height of the tub is almost to my hip. It literally is a task to get in and out of that shower. To me, that is a fall risk or accident waiting to happen. I nearly fell twice getting out of the shower and hit the toilet which is literally right next to it. Two bruises too many.
If I came back to Oahu would I go with her again? No. The bathtub is an issue for me. I would find another place to stay that is not so hard on my hips or legs for that matter.
