The place was in a convenient location close to the beach. It's size is about what you'd expect from a small hotel room. It's location in the building is not private, it's next to an outdoor walkway leading to other rooms. The curtains were effective in blocking out the light or prevent people from seeing in via the walkway, but with the curtains drawn we had to rely on the A/C rather than the cool breeze.
The place itself was finely done. It's been recently remodeled. The bed is new and comfortable. The bath was clean and nice. The host thought of all the little touches, high quality toilet paper, coffee, creamer and filters, scissors, water filter, make up remover, bottle opener. Everything that we thought we wanted was right were we expected it to be. Consumable items provided were higher quality than typical.
We are a married couple and on a fairly long trip, we stayed 2 nights in between other plans. It was perfect for this objective, as we wanted to be close to Queen's beach and near Diamond Head. However, unless you travel only with a carryon, there's not enough room to put up clothes, shoes, or other such items. Not to mention if you're surfing or swimming, there's nowhere really to hang wet items.
The sofa seemed oddly large for such a small space, and made the bed, dining table, and desk feel crammed in. We'd rather have had night tables by the bed and be able to use both sides of the bed to get in/out. We'd also have liked somewhere to unpack our clothes rather than having a huge sofa.
