Great location, good value and comfortable stay.

Liked:Great location near shopping, restaurants and the beach. Beds were comfortable and staff was pleasant and helpful. The family suite we were in had a refrigerator, microwave and a stove top which was handy.

Disliked:Hard to find with parking a few blocks away. You have to park in a loading zone and get a paid pass before parking. I only found this out when I called because I was having trouble finding the hotel. Also I was disappointed that the washing machine didn’t work (a new one was on order).

Liked:The property is close to everything in Waikīkī

Disliked:The walls are thin so you can hear everything in the hall. The door was dirty, the room smelled like mildew and the shower was dirty. The pool had mold on the steps and the deck is hot air n the afternoon
