The studio room is as described. Very clean and perfect for a single person or couple. The bed was a little bit too soft for me, and the sheets kinda slippery (non-silk, more polyester kind). I love the bathroom as it was clean and updated, and you can still watch TV while in it! The kitchen does not have its own sink, so you would need to use the bathroom sink. There is a plug-in twin cooker for use, but no extractor fan. The hotel has a new fire detection system, so I was bit weary not to set of any fire alarms and cause a mass evacuation. The hotel (Hawaiian Monarch) is OK. Has a great 'Burger & Sushi' shop on the the floor level, and a small convenience store that also sells alcohol. There is also a breakfast/brunch cafe and a pizza takeaway and a coffee takeaway store. 2 x ATM machines and a bar. On the corner of the Nui street, there is a 7-11 and across the road from that is an ABC Store. The hotel has quite thin walls. From this studio, I could hear the bar music, and a weird clanging sound intermittently (I think it was one of the elevators). Also, street noise seems to travel through as if it was happening right in front of your window. I was grateful for the modern air conditioner (with remote), and there is a standalone turbo fan as well. I would book this room again, but not really cook in it - so if you 're planning to eat out all the time, this room and hotel it is in, would be great. During my stay, the toaster was emitting a LOT of smoke every time I put the lever down. Without an extractor fan, I couldn't 'smoke it out' so I couldn't use it. I just ate breakfast from one of the shops on the level 1. Andrew was a great host and very accommodating as I wanted to check in around 11am instead of 3pm. I was able to check in at 12:30pm.
