John is a wonderful host- very welcoming and funny. He has the sweetest dogs you can imagine. I think the bedroom window opens towards a restaurant or something- it was pretty noisy. I slept like a log and it didn’t bother me (the bed is amazing) but it might bother other travelers. I ended up doing activities a little far from Waikiloa so the location wasn’t great for me but if you’re planning to be in Waikiloa then it’s a charming house and great place to stay.
