Rina's place is situated in a perfect area, because the main Paia town is a few steps away, and the beach is about a 10 minute walk away. There is a grocery store nearby. The room was comfortable with AC and a balcony. We shared a room in a house with others. The barn-style bathroom door in our room leaves a 2 inch gap when closed, so it was kind of uncomfortable. The room was expensive for what you get, but that's not a surprise since it's Hawaii.
