I would like to say as beautiful as Hawaii is, my girlfriend and I were the unfortunate victims of a having our luggage stolen before we checked in. I didn't have my credit card or much cash, but at least I prepaid this booking through Airbnb for a 1 night stay. However, when it was time for me to check out Cynthia claimed the amount I paid on Airbnb was not enough and demanded that I pay an extra $10. I made this booking over 2 months before my visit and she never directly communicated with me any extra fees. She also overbooked her place, meaning the other couple that was checking in the same evening as us suddenly had to had find a last minute hotel room. As an experienced Airbnb guest (over 20 reservations total; 3 other reservations in Hawaii over past month) and also as an Airbnb host, I thought that Cynthia was very unprofessional in managing her reservations and it was unfair to demand extra cash without notification from her guest that have already prepaid for the room.

The room was comfortable and clean. The wifi works. The room was street level, but the street is not busy at night. The bathroom is shared (there were 6 other guests that night). We had free parking in her driveway and allowed use to the washing machine, but dryer does not work properly. Cynthia provides a pancake, eggs, and coffee/tea for everyone at 8am. Even though the room is great for a short stay near the airport, I would not recommend this place based on my experience with Cynthia.
