1. Broken lamps were stored in one of the closets, the interior had a lot of wear and tear on the paint job, the bathroom sink fixture was loose and because of no fans the ventilation was poor therefore the sinks had a mildew/mold smell.

7. If you like rooms that constantly reek of automobile fumes because the parking garage opens onto your floor's halllway; If you you like standing in line for 30 minutes in order to check in;If you enjoy the smell of trash stinking up the hallways, sleeping on mattresses constructed of plywood, and hotel managers who scold you for having the audacity to question the shabby room you've been assigned;If you enjoy paying $200/night for less than average accommodations, a beach that pelts your shins and ankles with rocks, and an isolated location that offers really no where to walk;then, perhaps, the Aston Kaanapali Shores is for you.
