My wife and I were amazed at how clean and spacious it was. We got a standard room with King bed which was totally comfortable. There was a mini fridge, Microwave, Coffee maker with Coffee and filters, also silver ware too. I love that it had a nice size counter with a small sink. Only thing missing was Hot plate! The bathroom was quite huge and very clean. The room was spotless! My wife loved the toiletries and all the towels were clean and soft, very fresh smelling. The shower was very ample.There is also a table for two. A/C got cold very quickly. I could tell they maintain the rooms at this out of the way gem that was so close to everything! It also has a nice lanai with 2 chairs and small table. What's even better is they are right next to a wonderful Food truck called KStreet Food. Which has very tasty food and coffee, ECT. This hotel has very nice staff, friendly, and will happily answer questions you may have. Even with foot traffic, the room was very quite. It also has a great TV with many channels and streaming platforms. We stayed here because it was our 10th wedding anniversary and we wanted a quick staycation. The only thing I would say if you have a rental car, let them know ASAP because they have only a few stalls. There is a fee, but it's the cheapest by far. Also the elevator is quite small, so be aware it can hold just 2-3 people. All in all it was all worth it, and we plan to stay there again in the near future,but probably a bit longer.

The building is older but the rooms have been nicely updated. Staff was quite friendly. Parking is very limited so be sure to reserve it if you have a vehicle and best if you have something smaller. I was able to get a Jeep in and out without issue but it was tight. Two blocks from Waikiki beach!!

You get what you pay for at this place. It’s in a great location not too far from the beach, convenient food locations all around. The value for what you get is good. The room was a bit tight with 4 people but we hardly spent much time there besides sleeping so it’s worth it.

The property is budget friendly and conveniently located about 1 block from the beach. It is not in front of the beach ! Perfect place to stay in Waikiki. Rooms are clean and spacious. We really enjoyed our stay.

A bit conflicted writing this review, but I'll start with this. Hawaii is not what it's cracked up to be, at all. It's dirty underdeveloped, unreasonably expensive etc. Honolulu & Oahu overall are a tad better than the rest, but with that come hotel prices are totally unjustified. This hotel however cost me less for 4 nights than 1 night at more expensive ones that are very close to it. So if I'm going to a disappointing destination, I'd rather pay this price. The place has good newer bathroom vanity and kitchenette countertop. Has clean towels, shower& provides nice toiletries. Newer clean carpet. The bed had clean linens but the mattress & pillows underneath smelled like marijuana and ungroomed sweaty pets. This was a non- starter for me despite the other positives. Other negatives: 1) very noisy exhaust in the bathroom even when AC isn't on; 2) AC leaks after an hour of continuous work.; 3) food truck right outside regularly burned food & you could smell it right in the room, very strong & unpleasant smell; 4) seems like every day is trash day in this neighborhood; that's good, except you smell it even through closed doors and windows in the room. A little dirty outside the hotel, & and better on next street over but don't let that cleanliness mislead you. Waikiki supermarket within 5 min walk has good poke that you can buy by the weight.

The location is perfect. That's the only good thing about this hotel besides its location. ​As soon as I entered the room, the overwhelming smell of rotten yogurt hit me. It was truly disgusting and made my head hurt. I reported it to a staff member, and they said it was an issue with the refrigerator. However, I don't believe a refrigerator issue could cause a smell that sickening. ​They couldn't move me to a different room because the hotel was fully booked. Anyway, there's nothing good about this place except the location. The staff members were friendly, though.
