Went to Wakiki on our first-ever Hawaii trip and the location of the stay beats everything. Wakiki beach is couple of mins walk away. Loved the Friday night firework (short walk from the stay). You can hear the street noise while sleeping which was annoying. We saw turtle and fish right from the lanai. The parking garage charges 28$ per day and you can park at level 6 and directly walk into the stay. ABC store is a minute walk from the apartment. The host were responsive and communicated frequently. There is no dishwasher (also mentioned in the listing) and we had to clean all the dishes and utensils even though the cleaning fee was $$$. Host underlined not to use Insinkerator which was a bit inconvenience.
