Bugs everywhere - including on both beds. We could not stay there so had to book at another location, spending a lot more than we had budgeted for. We understood that it was an older hotel and wouldn’t have all the amenities, but it should have been clean at the very least. Very disappointed.

Room floor looked like painted OSB with nasty rug on it. Lock on door didn't work but manager said there was nothing she could do. Shower looked like a latrine. No curtains on windows. Look like a third world country hotel.

Very old hotel, build around 1950-th. Don’t remodeling, don’t repair. No windows (plexiglass). Very old mattress, Bath the same ages of my grand grand mother. Floor not horizontal, have angle and all furniture have spesial lockers from papers (opened, don’t properly closed, opened without lockers). Furniture very old (I think from garbich).

This is the worst hotel I have ever rented through Expedia. Hotel rooms were literally falling apart. Rotten walls, mold in shower stalls, holes in floors. The hotel is in a noisy area and you cannot close the windows due to air flow. This is a less than 1 star hotel.

I love beach dive hotels, and have stayed in many This one is quirky and unique, but unfortunately the room was awful. I can deal with no tv, ac, dirty fridge What got me was mildest/moldy shower, stained pillow case on bed, filmy entry door with no deadbolt or secure locking mechanism Took one look, said no thanks Was told they “were not authorized “ to issue refund, even though had other vacant rooms Hard pass. Got a very nice room for similar price up road

**Best Little Value Hotel in Hawaii**
We absolutely loved our stay at the Ginger. It felt like we were sleeping in the trees. The air was crisp, cool and fresh. The bedroom was clean, comfortable and fun. The bathroom was basic but has everything we needed. Hot water took a few minutes to arrive but that didn't bother us. *Tip - There is also a guest lobby bathroom that has instant hot water. Overall, we absolutely would recommend this hotel to anyone really looking to get connected with the culture and community. May not be the best selection for thus looking for a hotel they can lounge in all day. The Wild Ginger offers a wonderful unforgettable stay for thus adventurous value travelers types like us : )

This hotel may have been charming in my 20s but was quite lacking. The photographer did an amazing job of making the rooms look nice. I can’t recommend and we chose to drive back to our condo instead of staying there.
