Weng and John were great hosts and very accommodating, but I would not stay here again with two small children. They have done a good job keeping the inside clean (with lots of thoughtful details like labeling the soap dispensers) and utilizing the space- but the neighborhood felt unsafe with two small children. Weng mentioned that they have a toddler as well so that is what led me to book the place. We have a toddler and infant and the only separation between the living and sleeping space is a curtain- which is not conducive to both kids being able to sleep without waking each other up.
Also, the parking space is tiny! Would not be able to park a mini van in there and haul car seats, strollers, pack n plays, etc out of there.
The laundry machine (no dryer- have to air dry) is rusted and out of date so we did not do any laundry (which we definitely needed with kids)
But the neighborhood was the defining factor in not wanting to return- when we pulled up, there were two police cars a few houses down. Also, there were stray cats and dogs running by (which is dangerous with a highly mobile toddler).
This would be a great place for a couple looking to save money and be close to the action in Ko Olina but it wasn't the right fit for our little family.
