The location of the apartment is incredible, close to the beach and Kalakaua Avenue, where there are famous brand malls and many options of retaurants of all kinds: sophisticated, funky and simpler. Contact with the host was easy and even exceeded our expectations - quick, attentive and efficient response. But a few observations need to be made for proper hosting: a curtain with blackout, a new air conditioner (it has a old a very noisy one) and the replacement of the sofa bed mattress.
But overall, the apartment is very good and ideal for visiting Honolulu. I recommend it!
