Great location and value! I was traveling solo and didn't want to pay so much money for lodging since I was going to be doing tours and activities all day. The place is clean. I appreciate that it's an all female hostel so I felt safe. My 3 roommates were friendly and conaiderate. The hostel is a short walk to the beach and to downtown Lahaina where you'll find convenience stores, gift shops, and restaurants. It's a great location if you don't have a rental car. I did have a rental car because I stayed on the north side first. They have parking !
