Pros:

Everything was better than I expected. First place I have ever stayed that the pictures turned out to be exactly how it really looked. The bar by the pool area was great. The view from the room was excellent. The staff were very friendly and very polite. The only thing I was a little disappointed in was the dishes were all dirty and there was no dishwashing detergent in the room to clean them with. I would definitely stay here again. It was definitely worth the stay for the price.

Pros:

Staff was friendly and accommodating. Pool and tiki bar were enjoyable. Since rooms are privately owned it’s up to owners what’s in the room. My room was lacking dishes and much to cook a meal with. There was a coffee maker but no filters. I did really appreciate that they had a dehumidifier in the room.

Pros:

Been staying here since the 90's visiting my family that lives in the area. The outdoor pool area has been updated since the hurricane went through a few years ago. However, the heated pool isn’t heated anymore.The hotel itself is showing it's age and needs some updating. My biggest complaint would be the suppossed "HOA" owned parking lot. My son had his car literally on a tow truck coming back from lunch. He had to pay the guy $70 to keep from having it towed. No one told us we needed to have an extra parking pass. Seems kind of ridiculous since it was a Thursday and noone is fighting for parking spots. Kind of a racket. The tow truck driver conveniently only takes cash. Stayed here about 30 times. Probably going to look for another place to come visit after this.

Average Tired Hotel with Great Beach Access
Pros:

We have a very sentimental attachment to Hawaii and hoped this booking could be a close second. Turns out it's just another tired hotel on the beach.

It has the Hawaiian look approaching it but walking up to the front door the front glass was dirty by a lot. The lobby was very tired and the restaurant was boarded up. Check-in was fine and the clerk even had a kind of Hawaiian look. The elevators are very old from the 60's or 70's. It even made strange noises going up and down.

The room was decorated in a "funky beach" theme which did have it's charm and unusual decorative items but there were six (6!) different notices throughout the room basically saying if you take anything you will be charged...isn't that already assumed? It felt insulting and indicated to us the troubles they may be having.

In addition you could tell,except for the bedding change there wasn't more of cleaning from the prior guest (such as a near empty roll of toilet paper, etc.). The bed was great however!

Cost was on the pricy side because we were there for the Coke 400 race. You could tell they were operating with minimum help. They played country music in the lobby when they could have played Hawaiian music because they're the Hawaiian Inn. Would be no harm to wear Hawaiian shirts, etc.

You could tell the glory days of past are way gone. It was probably great back then but now it's just another average hotel on the beach and the pool and beach access is great. Maybe what it's all about anyways.

THERE ARE GERMAN ROACHS
Pros:

i used this hotel for my bday weekend; and upon entering the room it smelled humid and wet; the furniture was warped due to the dampness in the room along with rust just about everywhere. oh ??? the absolute best part? trying to get comfortable (impossible bc everything is damp) and seeing a german cockroach casually walk past me… not just one; multiple started showing up after that first. i luckily have a picture of one of the babies we saw (‘: attached is an image my friend sent me while talking to front desk whom seemed to be AWARE they were there…)
