The Plumeria is a great place for urban travelers. If you're like me and my husband, it was the perfect place to crash after being away for the whole day. My reviews will have some positives and some negatives, but it's honest.
The grounds itself is a very old apartment complex. There are both long-term and short-term guests, which makes the space interesting. It's located in a slightly sketchy part of town, but we felt very safe in the building and could even walk to several restaurants and breweries. Close to grocery stores and the freeway. The Airbnb complex is double locked and the door to your room is locked as well. The complex is quiet and the room has a window unit. Fenced in parking was a huge plus for us! Safe and convenient.
The hosts are very friendly, they oriented us to the whole property. There is an office and someone lives on property and available at all times.
The rooms/common spaces are clean and comfortable. A bit of an old, dingy, dorm-room feel, but everything you'd need for a good stay in the kitchen and bathroom. We ended up buying our own shampoo and conditioner, but the host does provide all basic toiletries. The mini fridge and shelving unit in the room allowed us to organize and plan for our stay, definitely a plus.
BE MINDFUL, you are sharing common space and bathroom with other guests. This mostly wasn't a problem until one of the rooms became occupied with a couple who sat on the front porch and smoked for HOURS. Because the common spaces do not have a/c, windows and doors are always open and the smoke was very obnoxious. Not really against the plumeria, but a good reminder if you can't stand dealing with other people.
I'll end by saying, if you're interested in any type of "Waikiki Luxury", this might not be the place for you. BUT if you need a clean, safe, cheap-ish place to crash at the end of the day, this place is perfect.
