We had a great experience. They upgraded us to a suite free of charge because they said our room wasn't ready. It was an amazing room with a huge balcony overlooking the hottub area. It is a fun, smaller hotel off the main drag of waikiki where you can walk to everything. The pool area is fun and cute! They also held out bags and let us hang out at the pool after checkout because our flight didn't leave until night time. Staff was super friendly and helpful.

This facility is a little bit of a catfish. The rooms don’t look like the pictures shown. The pool area and bar are probably the area that looks most like the pictures. The jacuzzi was not working the first 2 days we were there and we had rainy days so it would have been nice to have it working. There is no elevator as a warning. Our family had 2 separate rooms in one of the rooms had bugs on the bed so please check beds upon arrival. Overall it was an ok experience, the staff was always so helpful, they quickly solved the bug situation and got another room ready. The location was great walking distance to the beach and all the stores too might need to get to.

The staff as a whole were very helpful. Super convenient area. About .25 miss away from the beach. The security deposit is a lot cheaper than any other location that I researched. Unfortunately, there’s not a lot parking space so you’ll have to park at another location and walk there. Also, the hotel itself looks a little dated….nice theme but dated. In all I did have a nice stay however, because of the hassle of parking I’ll probably stay elsewhere.
