Definitely needs an update.

Check in the young man was nice and courtesy. He was very helpful during our stay-from getting ice to exchanging towels. Cute touch to have ear plugs for the guests. Though the chickens and roosters did not bother us. It was great to see them all over! The place itself is very rundown and worn out. When we first pulled up it was kind of creepy and I was very disappointed. It could use a fresh coat of paint and definite update to electrical services. Having signs posted ‘don’t use the hairdryer while running the a/c could pop a breaker and your room could be without power’ is not the most comfortable feeling concerning the upkeep of the facility. Thoroughly my fault-I thought the room I reserved was one that had a kitchenette—‘microwave/fridge and dishes’ nope. Luckily they did have one in the lobby, though again ‘don’t use the microwave when the coffee maker is in use’ sign signifies a drastic upgrade is needed. Location is in an older part of Lihue. Little sketchy but convenient and centrally to where we wanted to be.
Container with the earplugs.  Cute and thoughtful.
Looking down towards the office.
Room. Bed was soft and dipped into the middle.
Small shower,  good hot water and pressure

Shoebox room does not even compare to photos

This is a two-story motel from the '70s. The cover photo makes it seem like it would be a decent condo type of stay, what I arrived to was a tiny shoe box with bathroom and shower so small it felt like it converted closet. The closet itself was big enough to house a broom and maybe a mini vacuum. Definitely not enough room around the bed to do stretches or yoga. Several amenities listed on our room type we're not even provided.
