If you are just looking for a place to rest your head, it is fine. The cafe has good, quick breakfasts. ##### Byron Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2026 ### 8/10 Good #### Renelda Jan 2, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities This is a basic accommodation for a budget traveler. It was clean and fine for us. The fact that the cafe was a local favorite increased the rating. Its proximity to the airport and primary roadways also was a plus. ##### Renelda Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Takako Feb 6, 2026 They were kind enough to let us use a tea pot and a hair dryer in our room; however, while we were staying there for four nights,no room cleaning was made. It was perhaps because they didn't want the dirt to be noticeable that they chose dark brown as the color of their sheets. ##### Takako Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2026 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ERIC Nov 18, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Room was very clean. Appreciate how willing the staff is to work with guests on special requests. I enjoy staying here! ##### ERIC Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Glenn Nov 15, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Great for one night after arriving on a late flight from the mainland. Easy key code access and a great place for breakfast the next morning (closed on Mondays). Very basic but perfect for our needs. ##### Glenn Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chalei Sep 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Easy parking & very quiet.. really basic but great for just relaxing and getting some rest ##### Chalei Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Hoburn Clayton Kealoha Nov 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Room was great had a bit of difficulty with the room code, but the staff fixed it right away. ##### Hoburn Clayton Kealoha Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Wesley Oct 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities It was clean and confortable. ##### Wesley Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Blaine May 10, 2025 Very clean for a MOTEL ##### Blaine Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lindsay Sep 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Basic motel no frillls Clean room. Basic amenities. A motel best describes the room. Great restaurant for breakfast and lunch. Air conditioning was very loud. Close to Airport so you can hear planes taking off. Check-in is all by email which was simple. Good for one night stays ##### Lindsay Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Russ Oct 27, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We really liked the central location to the town and airport. Easy access to the restaurant for breakfast. The internet was a little slow but so was data access on Tmobile. Often switching to LTE. So it is what it is. Area was older, hotel buildings also, but honestly that is what we were expecting. It is Kauai after all. The price was one of the better ones out there when not looking to go to a resort or pay resort prices. We would go back not expecting it to change much. That being the appeal for us. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/cfaf4fae-fa60-4e30-928a-f7c40092d85e-1761594860310.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ceb8e4ce-835f-40c2-9a81-1063b854f2c2-1761594858625.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7348b3fc-1b4e-42b0-9bcf-812bbafce98f-1761594858914.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0f21e4f0-1168-4d44-8e29-f64742d45276-1761594861658.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Russ Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller May 10, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Pleasant stay in Tip Top Motel Very pleasant stay in Lihue.
