Makoto's place was perfect! I stayed there with my mother and my fiance' for my brother's wedding and it was exactly as the pictures showed and what was described. It is in a great location, walking distance to Waikiki shopping and dining. It was a great place to stay also because it is easy access to the freeways if you want to explore the island. Parking was not horrible as you need to park on the street or pay for parking. We did both during our stay and it was not too bad. You can mostly just park and walk to close areas. Thank you Makoto for hosting us! It was amazing!
