This was our first time in Hawai‘i. We stayed for a week, and it was a perfect location to stay to discover Waikiki. Beach is literally 30 seconds away, but so are multiple restaurants, surf shops, shopping centers, food stands, etc. It is also pretty central to the activities that surround Waikiki: zoo and a park are a 15 min walk.
Building is secure and needs a key to enter. The building looks kind of sketchy, (some folks seemed to gather near there at night and drink or smoke on the sidewalk) but we had no problems with the elevator or any of the other residents. There seemed to be many other travelers staying there and everyone was friendly. The space itself is small, but had plenty of extra towels and sheets, so it was perfect for us, a couple staying for a week. The lanai has as good of a view of the ocean as you can get without paying $300+ a night for a room. Definitely “partial” ocean view but still very beautiful. Also diamond head view was really cool!
Maurie was super communicative and helpful. All around very professional, and accommodating at the same time.
Overall, we were very satisfied and would recommend this place to anyone.
Thanks again, Maurie!
