The apartment is within walking distance of downtown Kona and the renters are very kind and helped us out when my Mom lost her purse, wallet, and ID. There are some drain mites (little tiny bugs) in the kitchen area, but this has been the case in other places I've stayed in Kona that do weekly sprays, so I think it's just a part of life in Kona, so be aware. The sheets were soft, air conditioner worked well. You can hear the renters through the ceiling, and they have little kiddos who like to run around. The place could use some upgrades (fresh paint and new shower curtain) but it was clean and well stocked. If you're looking for convenience, this is your place. If you're looking for luxury, peace, and quiet, maybe keep looking. Overall, my Mom and I enjoyed our stay.
