Overall Ratings & Reviews Howzit Hostels

So fun and welcoming, they don’t have a big lot for car but there is side street parking.

Location is great, super clean and staff are very friendly. I never done a hostel so this was a new experience for me. I’m glad (Lucky) I chose this place. I will recommend this place to other travelers. Wailuku is super different from Waikiki or anywhere in Oahu.

Great hostel. Staff were very kind and helpful.

They provide group activities which is great. The parking is first come first serve and paid. Property is clean. AC is kind of loud.

very friendly staff, but this property is in the middle of nowhere with limited access to public transportation. would not recommend unless you are renting a car.

Was the perfect spot to rest after arriving from a late flight. Staff was friendly. Check-in was easy

Great for the location, price, and excursions included. A couple issues: it felt like a constant fight to find an open bathroom. This location could have used a couple more for the amount of beds it has. Also, they advertise a backyard / outside area but that doesn't exist at the moment. Otherwise, parking was available and there were a couple good restaurants, bars, and shops within a few blocks. The beds were ok for me but would be too small for anyone 6' tall and up. I'd stay here again

Very friendly staff with good communication. Lots of activity choices if you are looking for something to do. Great community vibe.

Great hostel.

Great for solo travellers. Nice lounge and daily activities and excursions. Staff are top notch! Connects travellers together!!!

It was a quick stay for me, but the cleanliness and service were supreme. Honestly, everything was great, staff was friendly, common areas are renovated and clean. My towels and linen were pristine clean! Would recommend!

Nice facilities. Good kitchen and lounge area. Bathrooms/showers could use an update but still good for the price.

Checking in was a bit slow and difficult due to computer problems and lack of experience of the receptionist, but with no significant problems. Overall the hostel is comfortable enough for a short stay. Rooms are quite small, but everything was clean (including shared bathrooms).

Great team, dedicated to making your experience unforgettable

It was nice, though there are no privacy curtains and the fans as well as the AC units are very noisy. Had trouble sleeping the first night I stayed there.

The hand drying paper dispensers are installed on the walls with beds on the other side, everyone pounds at them all night long, maybe have them moved to the knee walls of the hallways not the bedrooms, pankxakes were awesome! And the kitchen is epic! Great job howzit ;)

They host a weekly margarita night that we weren't aware of. Even through earplugs and the air conditioner in the room running I could still hear the music from upstairs. I asked the staff if they could turn it down even just a little bit so that I at least couldn't feel the vibrations through the floorboards and they did, but it immediately turned it back up 5 minutes later. The sign in the lobby says music will be turned off at 9:45, a staff member told me 10 when I asked, and ultimately it was turned off at 10:45 after I went downstairs to ask a second time. Ran into another couple upstairs who were also annoyed by it, and just pacing the hallway together unable to sleep. Fun event, but I am sure there is a way to schedule this better so that it doesn't so negatively impact anyone wanting to sleep. Or at the very least, adhere to the music cutoff time advertised. It is a shame to leave a negative review because up until this point we were really enjoying our stay. The property is kept really clean, the common area is great, and the staff were super friendly and helpful. All that said though, the primary purpose of booking accommodation is so that you have somewhere to sleep while you're away from home, so if they can't provide that, it's a big miss.

I truly enjoy my stay. The free activities and transportation to these activities were great! The free chocolate pancakes and coffee were yummy!! The receptionist were friendly. My room was average however comfortable. Rooming with other people can be difficult if someone wants the room cold while others are always cold and want it warm. My room had a very loud fan. It did not bother me much, however other people were sensitive about it. I truly feel I have make life long friends.

We loved our stay at Howzit Hostel. We had our own room and appreciated the clean restrooms and facility. Everyone was friendly and loved the free shuttle and outings provided by the Hostel each day! Perfect for those without a rental car to see some of the best places on Maui. Highly recommend!

It was my first time staying in a hostel before. I had a great time meeting new people, the hostel was very comfortable, and offered fun activities.
