First time staying at a hostel and I love staying at this place. The atmosphere in this place is electric and vibrant. You can easily make new friends in no time. The staff is amazing and friendly. I love Maddie, she was very sweet and she loves being a tour guide. I would definitely return to this hostel in the future.

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.

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 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 ;)

Howzit Hostels - A Wonderful Surprise
This is an excellent facility, with superb service. Check-in was easy and thorough, and Kara (sp?) was friendly, attentive, and professional. As we were in for one night as a sleep-stop before heading to the airport, we were unable to take advantage of the myriad activities offered, but the amenities at the facility were great.
