It's a great value for your money. House is exactly as described and has absolutely everything you need from cookware to coffee to beach gear. Owners were super nice and left us a welcome gift which was super nice.
Location: away from the tourist spots, you def need a car to get around and it's not walking friendly. It's right in the middle of the island, so you can easily get to all the hiking trails, and beaches with a car. It rains very frequently on this hill, sometimes multiple times per day but it's never for too long. From the house it takes about 25 minutes to get to Waikiki. Everyone was friendly in the neighborhood
Noise levels: unfortunately this was the biggest issue because there is a highway nearby, so you hear the road noise. There is another balcony right by the living room so when neighbors are talking it gets pretty loud and you hear everything as if they were right there in the same room.
Then there is a very loud cat that screams all night long during mating period and it lasts for a week or so. You can also distinctly hear the plumbing noises in the second bedroom. The sound isolation isn't very good and makes it difficult for light sleepers.
Parking: no issues there. there was always a parking spot and I didn't have to park down the hill.
Overall it provides a great value if you want to explore the island, go on hikes but still be able to go to touristy areas.
