Maurie's place is in a GREAT location a short block from Waikiki Beach. It is not a 5 Star Hotel (it is in an older building. The decor and furnishings are older so if you are picky about these things be warned and also be ready to pay 3 or 4 times more at the Westin right across the street 😊) but it was clean and comfortable and looked just like the pictures and as described in his overview. The views from the lanai were also just like the pics on the sight. The bed was comfortable and the shower worked well. The kitchen had all you need to stay in and cook if you want, but there are dozens of restaurants and shops within walking distance; and many of them serve great food at a reasonable price for Honolulu. Maurie was an excellent communicator and trip advisor. We would love to stay here again. Gotta take the 1.5 mile hike to Leonards for the "malasadas" but plan to wait in line.
