Mai's place was great in that it is clearly a historic building with lots of charm. The room was nicely furnished, and the bed was super comfortable. The room was clean enough; the age of the sink and cabinets give it a more rustic feel. Check-in and out were super easy. Location: well, it's amazing in that it's less than a 5-minute walk to historic Honokaa town, which has some lovely cafes and a cool/quirky antique shop. The challenge was that my room faced the police and fire station compound (as Mai clearly states in her description). The fire/conservation crews start arriving at 6:30am, begin loading up work trucks and having loud conversations. I'm an early riser, so it wasn't a big deal, though should be noted for any late sleepers. Ear plugs were provided in the room. There were also times that the crews were trimming hedges, using chainsaws, or just generally making a lot of noise between the hours of 7am-4pm. In essence: this was a cool, unique stay in a historic town and building, with some noise considerations.
