It was satisfying

Good

− If the hotel didn't Burn down. My belongings were burned and had to run with my life. I'm hoping I can get compensation for this

I loved the place, those vegan musubis were amazing. Just the water issues killed the vibe.

5.0

Loved the native plants and vintage look.

− That there was no hot or even warm water and on the 2nd day there was no water. We also had to tighten the fan light because it was getting loose and the light wouldn’t turn on.

(Disappointed Status) Wild Ginger Hotel, Big Island Hawaii

2.0

The bed was somewhat comfortable and had a soft blanket on top of the bed.

− I came here for my birthday and I am very disappointed. For the price this should have been a very nice and well kept place. It was night time when we arrived I asked a head of time for a great view. Upon arrival there was very little to no parking. We couldn't get into our room with the key that was provided; I was told to use the side of a credit card and turn the key lock to open the door due to the keys not working. The room appears nice looking, but the room is very tiny, the size of a small child's room. There is NO hot water that comes from any faucets in the room. Outside the room Rotted flooring with floor mats covering them up, holes in the flooring with mats covering them up. Roofing looks bad. The fire extinguishers are barrowed and expired and not up to code, out dated. There is no hot water for showers or from a faucet in the bathroom. If you want hot water then you have to use a public shower house. When I went to the front desk to ask about these issues no one was available to resolve issues. Office was closed from 11pm-7am; there was a phone number to get a hold of someone it rang in the office where NO one is on duty. I was looking around and found a piece of paper typed out. (I will take pic.)
