This place has many many issues:
1. This Airbnb is operating illegally in the state of Hawaii. Property records show that the property is registered and permitted as a single family home, but it's clearly built as a multi-family property. Furthermore, the property is zoned in a residential area of Oahu, meaning that it should NOT be used for short-term vacation rentals.
2. BUGS, SO MANY BUGS. Our unit was infested with them! Unfortunately my friends and I were left covered in tons of massive, deeply uncomfortable bug bites. When we told the host this, he tried to blame us for it even though we had barely been there for 2 days! The unit was coveredddd in dead bugs (along the window sills, corners of the bedrooms, light fixtures, and even in the sheets!) and there were tons more flying around too.
3. The location is horrible. Getting to and from the building requires traversing a horribly steep road that's usually wet and littered with gravel. Our car's tires slipped multiple times. Even San Francisco doesn't have roads this steep!!
4. The host has a horrible ego. Instead of taking ownership of the bug infestation in the unit and simply refunding our money so that we could find a different place, Dan tried blaming the hordes of dead bugs in the unit on us, even though we'd just arrived! It doesn't matter if a situation like this has never happened before, but when it does happen, operators need to take responsibility of the properties that they manage. Terrible terrible time dealing with this host.
If you can book a different place, you definitely should. This place is 100% to be avoided.
