Importance of location cannot be understated! This place is close to everything, pretty much anything you would need and plenty of things to do is within walking distance. Place is clean & comfortable. One thing to be aware of -- if you check in on the weekend, the office may be closed. If you want AC -- and Kona is pretty hot so you probably will -- make sure you call the office BEFORE your stay so they can unlock the AC. Also, keep in mind AC will cost you $10 per DAY. Overall, would recommend this place to fellow travelers!
