Very pleasant stay in Lihue. Clean and cozy room, excellent location in Lihue and fabulous bakery! Mahalo!
4-night trip

10/10

Simple accommodations for just needing somewhere to stay the night after a long day out. Easy check in and check out. Would book again. Thanks Tip Top!
1-night trip

8/10

The stay was good and the room was good and clean and was well maintained. The only concern was the price paid almost $200 per night for a motel room (the room and bathroom size is small).
4-night trip

8/10

Great bargain if your are looking for simple, no frills, basic accommodations .
1-night trip

10/10

We had a great stay - everything is as described. The room was clean and beds were comfy. The room is small but we didn't need anything but a place to sleep - it was perfect.
1-night trip

8/10

It was easy check in. The rooms were well maintained. The entire room was clean and they had maintained it well. Our room had AC and TV. The washroom was big and neat. The only downside was no kettle, microwave or any other appliances or plates for us to eat. The only option is motel.

There was a used wash rag left in the shower and room was clearly not very clean. The cafe and office were closed the whole visit.
2-night trip

6/10

Location is very convenient. Bathroom shower smelled liked mildew and mold. The bed was very squeaky and blankets were super thin and didn’t smell clean. TV kind of smaller than expected but still working. The phone plugs on the lamp did not work. It was ok. However service was great and staff are very friendly and helpful. Access to check in was very easy. Very simple and basic.

The hotel location was a good.
3-night trip

6/10

The best thing is it’s very close to the airport if you’re getting into Kauai late. Very minimal space, supplies. (Not even a hand towel… only two towels and wash cloths) No coffee pot . Smoke alarm was laying on a shelf. When I reported it because I thought they’d want to know, the response was “yeah we took it down” WHAT!!! Would not stay there again.

Perfect for when you are in a budget but didn’t compromise convenience and the quality of stay. It’s a plus to have a restaurant just down below your building.

Good for solo budget as who can’t afford to stay a Hotel’s or Resorts!

I absolutely loved this cute little motel and restaurant. It was a lovely stay with everything I want in a hotel: reliable WiFi, great TV (including TCM), a comfortable bed, and a lovely shower and bathroom. I highly recommend this place. The bakery and restaurant were delicious and convenient too!
