    Our room was noisy both from the traffic outside and from the opening and closing of doors in the corridor.

    The location was good but the stand out was the staff; genuinely friendly,helpful and were so proactive in ensuring we were being looked after.

    Lower floor room had terrible view of the parking lot/roof of building next door. Not worth the rate. Parking was a little pricey at $35/night and spots and ramp are very small - compact cars recommended.

    Renovated rooms are cute and stylish. Hotel was very clean despite being very busy. Staff were welcoming and kind. Easy to check out beach towels. Excellent location - walking distance to major Waikiki spots. Parking on sight.

    The room felt very small, mostly because there were 2 big beds and a large table. Maybe if they got rid of the table, it would feel roomier.

    It was in a good location. We were able to book together with our friends so that our rooms were right next to each other! It was a good value!

    I didn't like how small the bathroom was in our 2 bed room. We could also hear running water at all hours of the day, probably from the AC but not sure?

    I loved the location and the decor of the hotel and its rooms.

    Bed was on the uncomfortable side. Room was a little noisy after midnight hours but that’s to be expected since it’s downtown.

    Great location for breakfast options walking distance

    The toilet flushing was loud...you can even hear the floor above you. A small chair on the patio would also have been nice. These weren't the biggest of deals but just to be aware of them.

    Room: super clean, comfortable bed. Staff: The BEST. From the check-in to the cleaning to the check-out staff, the service was impeccable. My aunt, mom, and I were treated with the utmost kindness. My flight departed at 11 pm but was still granted the opportunity to enjoy my day and allowed access to a courtesy shower.

    Unfortunately, the wifi was very poor outside the lobby. Also, we had some issues with maintenance of the loo. This then required us to change rooms in the middle of the day, which is a hassle when you only spend little time in O'ahu.

    The location was unbeatable. The newly renovated rooms where really nice and we enjoyed the option of dipping into the pool in the evening (thought it would have been nice if the pool closed at 10:00 pm and not 9:00 pm). Having experienced both the city view and the ocean view, I enjoyed the city view more as it was quieter and still nice where we were situated.

    we had opted for the everyday cleaning in our room and at one point it took a couple of days for them to come clean it. Plus our TV’s chrome cast wasnt working which is what they advertise. But overall good stay!

    The properties location was amazing and the staff was extremely friendly

    The pool and spa area isn’t very inviting, small , no real natural light or nice landscape . There were two long hairs in the bath tub upon check in. Walls are a little on the thin side

    The location to restaurants, shopping and the beach are really convenient . The room was updated and furnished nicely.

    The wifi is poor. It often disconnected. I hate the noise. I can hear every word from my neighbors. The laundry is twice more expensive than the other hotel I stayed in Waikiki. There is only one elevator to the laundry and gym. The swimming pool is tiny.

    The location is great! Close to many restaurants and beaches.

    The air-conditioning is automatic which is kind of cold at night. Also some light comes out from the gap under the door, noticed in the dark but a bit annoying with jet-lag.

    Best location and atmosphere, well-furbished and decorated. Comfort bed. Staffs are professional. Feeling welcomed all the times during the stay.

    We had a low level street facing room and it was noisy at times.

    Customer service focussed staff, relatively short walk to Waikiki Beach with plenty of eating places and stores nearby.
