Great staff, great location & great facilities. Thanks to Johnny and his staff for making me feel at home on my vacation. In a place where hospitality can be generic, this hostel is the exception. Don't waste time in the back alleys of Lemon Rd. and come stay here. more

This was the first time we stayed in a hostel and we loved it! Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The hostel was kept very clean, orderly, and safe.

This is a great hostel if you don't mind giant cockroaches and other assorted filth. It's not really a bargain because there are hostels nearby which charge the same price per night and you don't have to deal with the run down facilities and the all night noise from the bar next door.

A few on the floor in the room and in the bathroom, but the kitchen was COVERED (counter tops seemed to move. Even the inside of the microwave was crawling with them.) The shower faucet didn't work (couldn't... more

the facility itself is great. its a bit of a walk from the beach, but in a very good location otherwise. it was lovely to get a breakfast every morning and to do free laundry (between 1pm and 8pm of course) my bed, besides the large dip, was cozy and clean. and of course i met some great people staying... more

If you're on a serious budget, the hotels in Honolulu could break the bank in just one day. I stayed at the Seaside hostel for four days and loved it. It has free internet and a really big patio area with TV (got to catch the NCAA tourney between time at the beach). The rooms are not very private, with... more
