A historic experience.

Liked: Such a kind staff! Wonderful breakfast! Historic experience. Lovely garden. Husband liked the pool?very cold. Larger room had a great shower.
Disliked: This inn would be better if little amenities like shampoo and lotion. Serve good Hawaiian coffee. Offer a variety of tea bags. Make sure to clean the bedspread. Clean rooms more frequently. The dogs are cute, but have unfortunately made the downstairs smell a bit like dog. The rugs probably need to be switched out frequently if the dogs still get to roam freely. We like dogs, but this is an issue. Also, as some people are allergic to dogs, it is important to let everyone know they are there. Also, the bathroom window didn?t provide privacy. Again, pool too cold.

Our stay was relaxing, enjoyable,...

Liked: Breakfast was outstanding. Location was excellent for our purposes. Most important was the friendliness of the owner and staff. They treated us like family and we enjoyed talking with them and sharing our memories.
Disliked: Parking was free ,but sometimes crowded.

Pleasant

Liked: Staff was very friendly, helpful and welcoming. Pool was beautiful. Breakfast was fine if a little odd. Never had boiled cabbage with eggs before.
Disliked: I know you are going for a victorian ambiance with the decor, but it was way over the top. Cluttered, messy and dusty. Cobwebs in the stairwell. I rather like an unusual and slightly funky place, but not at $300/night

Manoa Valley Inn is a...

Liked: The location was perfect for us! Being at Manoa Valley Inn was like going back in time. The trade winds blew through our room, and, although air-conditioning was available, we didn't need to use it! The staff was so friendly and kind; our room was immaculate. We will not hesitate to make reservations here the next time we're in Honolulu.
Disliked: There's nothing that could have improved our experience. It was perfect.

Cute place to stay with...

Liked: Breakfast was delicious! The beauty of the place was unmatched inside and out. Hosts were excellent.
Disliked: Parking was tight, but we made it work. The rooms were not air-conditioned upon arrival, but we turned on the room AC and was comfortable. The main floor had order, so it could use Fabreeze.

A very good alternative to...

Liked: Great breakfast! Excellent coffee, fresh pineapple, eggs to order, and lots more.
Disliked: The inn is an historic building so no elevator and 3 flights of stairs to top floor rooms, so a bit dicey if guest has mobility issues. Top-floor rooms have slanted ceilings so if very tall, watch your head! "Sitting shower" also a bit challenging, but good water pressure.

beautiful place, kind people, pool...

Liked: Beautiful landscaping and great breakfast.
Disliked: strong cat odor and parking was tight. bring earplugs for sleeping

Very good

Great location, lovely ambience, deliciously...

Liked: Staff and breakfast were great. This was a gift, otherwise we probably wouldn?t have known about it nor stayed there. Will consider staying again.
Disliked: Beds were a bit lumpy. Altho warned about the room not having a standing shower, we wd prefer not staying in that type of room again. Pet smell was a bit strong at entry and hallway but not as noticeable in room.
