Love this place. (Missing my friend Marcus, concerned about if he had passed away since this was the last place I had seen him years ago.) I decided to stay and it was a good idea and much needed place for me to be after being homeless for almost 20 years. I was allowed to use and it was nice having the freedom and spooky hearing voices having Schizophrenia and learning that people had actually died there. The neighbors were nice and very welcoming. Thank you.

I would definitely recommend the program. Though I was there as a survivor of domestic violence the program was perfect for me as it helped me to stay focused yes there were disagreements but I understand the staffs reasoning for what they do and why. Through working the program and saving money I was able to astablish a place of my own. The key that worked for me was. .. To remember why I was there and where I wanted to be. As long as I didn't get caught up in the gossip and drama is what keeps it stress free. As long as u wk the program and not let it work u. U can get through it

It's "transitional housing". And there IS a few requirements to be completed before being accepted into the program, if it's what you need. However. Don't look for friendly smiling customer service. Or even adequate service. (if you get ANY at all) Approach the front desk with a truckload of patience and understanding in the fact that NONE of the people behind the desk are paid professionals. They are the people who live in the program, who are doing their bit for the Aloha Inn as it is a requirement, for all who are in the program to do so by contract. As for the facility itself... It's old. Smells old, looks old, nuff said.

Always charming and they don't allow the likes of meth users nor drunks! 😆 lots of other residents that are so cheerful, helpful and eligible to one day become a potential friend. I've met nice people here like Tracy A....nicest female-type friend you could only dream of. Give the Aloha Hotel a try, you'll be glad you did and say howdy to Tracy A.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Basic income required to pay your VERY nominal rent, $ to wash your clothes and thats about it unless you're one of them there chain smokers glued to a cigatette butt. Then you'll need $10.00 a pack unless you're good at bummin' or stealing from your hommuez!

What if I don't have an income at the moment? I need work.

PinkNinjaBunny | Aug 11, 2022
Rick Roberts | Aug 12, 2022

You don't have to have an income when you apply, however you would be wise to look into public assistance and 'foodstamps' or HEN for the short term. Then find a job when you know you've applied for those initial resources. Of course you can go straight to employment if the first suggestion is not to your liking. Just sayin.

How clean is this facility....I know someone that needs this help but I can’t just put them anywhere...Have you ever had bed bugs..???

TINA MSVIRGO BLACK | Aug 11, 2022
Rock Strongo | Aug 12, 2022

It's an old building, remodeled. I'm sure at one point in history it has. But with proper treatment and preventative procedures (i.e. dog detection, monthly spraying and diatomaceous earth) which I'm sure they practice. The place should be pest free.

what are the rules about traveling out of town for a few days if your a resident

Magdalena Ward | Aug 11, 2022
Laminda Johnstone | Aug 12, 2022

You are welcome to leave and stay someplace overnight if you plan to be gone more then 2 days then you would need to take a LOA (leave of absence) which the requirements for taking an loa will be explained to you when you request the time away

frost themane | Aug 11, 2022
Andrea Sterling | Aug 12, 2022

Depends on you because you'll need to fill out application and go through an interview and then meet before the board. You may be pucked you may not be picked. About 2-3 weeks to know you can also call them to see exactly what to do.
