Don't recommend it at all - this room is way overrated.
Brief and quick reasons why I'm disappointed:
(To those who aren't familiar, Bamboo Waikiki Hotel is a complex that contain both private rooms and hotel rooms. The one you're browsing at is a private room owned by Crystal.)
Cons:
1. Sheets and the room aren't clean enough. There're lots of stains on white sheets and stuffs left from previous guests.
2. Not enough bathroom accessories. My friends and I (3 ppl in total) booked the room for 5 days in a row. But there's only 1 bottle (15ml) of shampoo, 1 piece of a small soap, 1 box of tissues, 4 or 5 bathroom towels and 2 beach towels. Do the simple math and you can easily find out how embarrassed it is. We ran out of shampoo on Day 2, tissue on Day 4, and bathroom towels for Day3 and beach towels were never enough (3 > 2). We tried to ask the front desk for more but since this is a private room, the hotel itself wouldn't help.
3. No housekeeping and No trash bags. Yes I know this is an Airbnb and it's absolutely normal to live without housekeeping. But at least give us enough trash bags that we can do our cleaning !!?? You will have another "trash roommate" if you plan to stay more than 3 days :).
4. Poor communication. At first Crystal replied so soon with my question asking for early checked-in. But that's it. I tried to text Crystal about the problems above during my stay and got NO REPLY. The hotel wouldn't give a shit either.
5. What else? Oh the price. I canceled the rest of my stay and moved to "Aqua Oasis Hotel" which is cheaper and reliable. I meant there're plenty of cheaper choices around.
To be fair, there're some pros, too.
1. Nice sound-proof window
2. TV, kitchen, tableware and refrigerator are included.
3. Location kind of nice ...? It is on the edge of downtown.
I'm not mean, I'm just disappointed.
