My vacation

The hotel is all good except there is no microwave and no coffee maker. Otherwise I had a nice vacation and the area is very safe to walk at night or a midnight stroll. Staff is very helpfull and very polite. I will highly recomend this hotel to anyone. Everything is walking distance from shopping to food.

You get what you pay for

This was the right room for the price. I was a little disappointed with the size of the room. It appeared much bigger in the pictures. The room was clean though, and who spends much time in the room while in Hawaii anyway.

Excellent location!

Away from the noise, yet close to the beach, restaurants, shopping centers: not only to the ABC stores and Whalers but to the Don Quixote, Foodpantry, Alamoana Shopping Center. We stayed here 26 nights, could cook, eat out as we wished. Easy bus ride, the bus stop right in front. Fantastic strategic place to all kinds of activities.

You can visit anywhere by public bus in Honolulu, and walk everywhere as in Japan, which we can't do in most of the US cities.
