The hotel is basic at best. The room is small and very basic/dated. I called to reserve parking as soon as we had booked the room. When we arrived we were informed there was no spot for us. We had to park 3 blocks away and pay twice as much. I specifically chose this hotel because it was relatively well priced with the parking. I would have chosen somewhere else if I'd known that I wasn't going to be able to park on site. Also, know that if you do get parking here you'll want a small vehicle. The spots are tight to say the least. Also the rooms/balconies directly look out over a noisy food truck location.

Small and quaint.

Amazing spot. Walking distance from the beach, food trucks, & cafes. Very limited parking but there’s some structures a few blocks away where you can park over night. Small quiet place. Didn’t really see other people too much but it shows how chill the hotel was. The inside was clean and didn’t smell bad. My only complaint was the balcony. Nice view but there was moldy water puddling up on the floor due to leaks. Other than that, I definitely recommend.

It's ok pricey but it's normal in that area, you have to clean your own room or if you need new clean towels you have to get it your self. If you're traveling alone better getting a hostel instead

Relaxation at Waikiki at a fair price!

I had a clean, comfortable, quiet place to stay and the a/c was very cold. The hotel is centrally located, walking distance to Waikiki, and the staff at the front desk was friendly and very helpful. What else could you ask for?

Central hotel

Central location, few minutes walking to the beach or few minutes the other way to take theBus. Able to come back to take a break or take a quick shower between activities. Everything looked and smelled clean. Bath towels were very soft and you can borrow beach towels from the lobby during your stay. We felt safe walking around even late night and early morning before sunrise. You need your room key to get into the elevator or stairwell. Can be a bit loud outside with the food trucks at night and the garbage trucks in the morning, but we just needed a clean, convenient spot that we could afford. Would stay again : )

I love the fact that everything is so nearby. They don't call it Waikiki "Central" Hotel for nothing. You literally have food, shopping, the beach, etc within a block away from you. Staff was friendly and helpful. Parking is a plus and only $25/day which is reasonable. Overall a great stay. I would definitely book again in the future.
