Lovely staff : ) Great price, very close to a terrific section of Waikiki Beach.
Friendly staff and clean hotel room! Hotel is located in a great spot, close to the beach and main strip of Waikiki. Parking is limited so definitely reserve in advance as possible.

Staff was very nice and accommodating! Rooms were clean. Location was terrific.
Our stay here was amazing! Location is unbeatable and they offer parking. They also had a basket of items that we could borrow free of charge such as boogie boards, umbrellas and beach towels. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommended staying here!
room is clean, only blocks from the beach, a lot of shops nearby, staff very helpful. only one thing is the air condition is very noisy.

While the downtown Waikiki location was advantageous, parking availability was limited and required proficient maneuvering. The shower facilities and guest rooms would benefit from an upgrade. Otherwise, the location and all other amenities were satisfactory.

The staff were helpful and the room was fine, despite the age and look of the building. Close to the beach and was good for a 2 or 3 night stay.
It was very clean and comfortable with just the right amount of space and the location was the highlight of the entire stay. I will definitely be back!
