I
stayed
here
for
a
week
in
August
2021,
when
there
were
still
some
pandemic
restrictions
(
although
it
has
been
more
relaxed
compared
to
earlier
in
the
same
year).
Location:
This
hotel
is
located
in
Waikiki,
the
heart
of
tourism
in
Honolulu.
This
hotel
is
near
many
popular
places
-
including
Maguro
Brothers
(sashimi
&
poke),
Marugame
Udon,
Kona
Coffee
Purveyors,
Basalt
(get
the
charcoal
buttermilk
pancakes!),
Heavenly
Island
Lifestyle,
International
Market
Place,
etc.
It
takes
around
10
minutes
to
walk
to
Waikiki
Beach.
The
only
con
is
that
there
is
a
small
tattoo
parlor
and
bar
on
Nohonani
St.,
which
I
did
feel
a
bit
hesitant
to
walk
past
at
night.
Price:
For
the
area,
this
hotel
is
a
good
option
for
budget-friendly
travelers
who
don’t
want
to
shell
out
a
few
hundred
dollars
a
day
on
a
beach-front
hotel.
Please
note
that
there
was
a
$27.45/night
resort
fee.
Service:
The
staff
at
the
hotel
is
amazing!
I
have
stayed
at
nicer
hotels,
but
some
haven’t
even
come
as
close
to
the
service
here.
Cleanliness:
Housekeeping
services
were
provided
every
day
without
any
prior
request.
I
was
immensely
surprised
at
how
clean
it
was
considering
the
limited
time
they
had
during
the
day.
Rooms:
When
I
stayed,
the
room
was
clean,
albeit
a
bit
outdated,
but
it
looks
like
based
on
the
recent
reviews,
they
have
done
some
remodeling.
The
beds
were
large
and
comfortable
to
sleep
in.
Compared
to
other
hotels
I
was
searching
in
the
same
area,
this
hotel
has
a
kitchenette
(
including
a
fridge,
microwave,
sink,
coffee
machine,
and
burners).
They
had
more
kitchen
utensils
in
stock
than
I
expected.
However
one
morning,
I
smelled
and
heard
a
nearby
occupant
making
breakfast.
My
room
has
a
balcony
with
a
view
of
the
city,
but
I
rarely
go
there
because
the
furniture
isn’t
that
pleasant
to
see.
If
you’re
lucky/paid
more,
you
can
get
great
views
of
the
mountains.
Parking:
There
is
limited
free
parking.
The
staff
will
provide
a
parking
pass
to
hang
in
your
car
throughout
your
stay.
As
long
as
you
come
back
and
park
around
5:00
P.M.,
you
should
be
able
to
find
a
parking
spot.
If
you
arrive
later,
you
will
need
to
pay
for
parking
nearby.
I
would
recommend
renting
a
compact
car
because
the
parking
spaces
were
a
tad
narrow.
All
in
all,
I
would
come
back
here
again
if
I
ever
visited
Honolulu.
