Perfect for when you are in a budget but didn’t compromise convenience and the quality of stay. It’s a plus to have a restaurant just down below your building.

Clean and cooled off quick with window unit. Bed closest to door- has sag spot in center. Needs flipping/rotating. Sounded like a office phone ringing every few minutes thru out night- was annoying. Fit needs and reasonable price. Liked the code entry at door- after long day of travel

My brother and I spent two different segments of our trips here at Tip Top and throughly enjoyed it. It was relatively clean, comfortable, and quiet. The communication of the staff for the self check-in was superb. The diner downstairs was fantastic. The location was very convenient to many things in the area. One of the things that brought us here too was the cost, which was very reasonable given the area. The only thing negative was in our second room there were some things that needed to be cleaned better (the walls around toilet and bathroom in general), we didn’t have a fridge like we did in our first room, and our plug and lamp by bedside was broken.

It was a nice stay in this property. Will recommend this to our friends and family. We enjoyed our trip in Kauai.

My room had keyless entry, which was good (no key card to carry around) and bad (had to have 6-digit access code readily available). The room was comfortable and suited my needs. You could hang a door sign if you needed maid service during the stay, which made it eco-friendly. The room was fairly clean, although the floor probably could've used a good scrub. The AC unit was appreciated but was awfully noisy. There is free parking (but the spaces are small) and a decent coffee shop on property. Tip Top is conveniently located in Lihue, so it is near almost everything.

Very reasonable price per night, and without resort fees. And the bakery/restautarant provided very convenient access for breakfast and lunch !!! We would stay there again , when we return to Kauai.

It’s very very old and humble. Clean but a 2-star motel.

Dirty and unkept. Better off sleeping in the rental car.

Amazing ambience and beach access. Gorgeous swimming pool and spas set in an exotic garden. Lots of exercise and craft classes to attend. A room full of exercise equipment. Great food! A panoramic view of Hanalei Bay. Courteous service and cleanliness. We enjoyed our stay.

This motel is an excellent value (considering Hawaii prices). The room was comfortable with a nice TV and cable package in a great location, a block from Hilo Hattie's with several restaurants, cafes, and fast-food places nearby. Just a mile from the airport. I actually walked back to the airport the next day to rent a car.

There are no plugs in the bathroom, no tissues, no free coffee, nobody to call after 3:00, no ice, no microwave, no refrigerator. It's a small brick prison cell with an air conditioner. They charged me $200 a night and then they wanted to charge for coffee and offered breakfast for 15 to $20. Never again

I absolutely loved this cute little motel and restaurant. It was a lovely stay with everything I want in a hotel: reliable WiFi, great TV (including TCM), a comfortable bed, and a lovely shower and bathroom. I highly recommend this place. The bakery and restaurant were delicious and convenient too!

Nice place for travelers. The communication was great. The room was comfortable. There is a breakfast/ lunch place associated with the motel but we had to leave really early to catch our flight so we didn't have a way to make coffee in the morning. Other than that, it was the perfect spot.

Tip Top is conveniently located near the airport and downtown Lihu’e. It has a nice local style restaurant on property that serves breakfast and lunch with other restaurants nearby. The accommodations are modest, but provide most everything you would need to make your stay comfortable. And as long as you are able to follow instructions, check in and check out are a breeze.

Room was ready, neat, clean. simple but with the basic necessities. Room was secure and TV was good. Shower was clean, water hot and towels soft. It would have been nice if the room had a coffee maker, but the tip Top Cafe was right downstairs a few feet away, so no real problem. A good economy hotel.
