Disappointing
Traveller Type: young couple
  : Friendly staff and good location
  : Room was very, very basic. Basically: Bed and shower only and 2 chairs and small table. It appears that the floor is slightly inclined. Very poor value for money.

Wonderful

  : I like the location of the room. I was able to enjoy a very nice view of sunset from my balcony. The garden was very nice
  : It wasn’t clear that there would be two extra beds in the top floor.

  : Great location for early trip to Haleaka.
  : Restaurant closed. Gate to cabin parking locked at 6 om so we could not drive to dinner. Staff not friendly. Sunken spot on floor. Inadequate heat. Expensive.

Poor
Traveller Type: group
  : Had to check out of our resort at 10:00am. Booked this room to just hang out until plane took off at 11:30 pm. Could not check in until after 3 pm. Location of lodge nice but on west side so room was very hot when we arrived; no air conditioning but there was a fan in the room which helped until sun went down then able to open doors to room to get a nice breeze going through.
  : See above comments.

  : The location was very beautiful and tucked away in the countryside. Conveniently next to a breakfast/lunch restaurant as well as a gift shop. The complimentary wifi also worked well!
  : First we were given instructions that didn't match our key, which lead us to wake up some strangers in the middle of the night (whoops!). Then onto the room, which had slanted floors (some falling in), mold in the shower, very little amenities (no fridge, microwave, or laundry on site), and the constant smell of mildew..things definitely felt like a 1 to 2 star motel that I would pay less than $100.00 per night to stay in. Instead, we were paying a little over 1k for 3 nights. The whole experience just felt overpriced and under-delivered.I will say that the staff was very kind and accommodating. But overall, I am not sure if we would stay here again.

Very Good

Disappointing
Traveller Type: family with young children
  : The beds for the children were simple folding mattresses and absolutely worn out. The lodge is on a very busy road and is therefore very noisy at night. Unfortunately there were no curtains to darken the windows. This is not a problem if you want to go to the volcano early, but not comfortable if you want to stay longer.
