We stayed here back in March 2020 and now I am wondering if the hotel cleanliness was better because cleaning was heightened before the pandemic broke out. Or we were just happy with a bed and a shower after we were camping with our toddlers fora couple of days out in North Shore. While the facade right after checking was charming and gave a boutique retro feel, we realized soon after how poor the conditions of the room really were. The shower was dirty, the shower curtain smelled like a wet dog, there was hair and sticky stuff on the bathroom floor, the closet smelled really wet and musky. The carpet in the room was dark and gross and I had asked my family to wear their slippers in the room which I typically have a rule to leave it by the front door. The be economical they don't clean the room everyday- which is okay. But they give you these really hard crusty towels. We stayed in Laie for the first leg of the trip and honestly I could have gone without this part. Really disappointed and won't be back.

Retro Fun but be prepared...
It's Quirky & fun but...the hot tub has no jets but has a neat lottle waterfall feature. But again whats a hot tub eith no jets, the pool isnt heated at all...definetely not enough chairs by pool, bar is super cute but be prepared to drop a $20 for a drink. They have fun complementary slushies in the afternoon & coffee in the a.m. No elevator, so be prepared, they have 3 floors. Staff were very friendly. Completely affordable and just 2 blocks from the beach so you could walk tons of places! Decor is retro & fun if your into that vibe! Our balcony faced a wall to an apartment building so that super sucked so we didnt even sit out there and literally balconies were one of the reasons i booked the room.
