Great location, nicely updated room, clean, good WiFi and very comfortable bed. Walking distance to the beach, ABC Store, and to great food trucks. Parking is a couple of blocks away at the Banyan hotel for $20 a day, not too bad. Be aware, this place is managed by a real estate/hotel company , not a private Airbnb owner. Their office is down the street near the Waikiki Grand. Because of this they were not getting any of the messages I sent when we had problems checking in. Luckily, someone from the office came by the apartment building and was able to help us check in. He was polite and tried to make things right, as we were obviously frustrated by that point. Not sure what we would’ve done if he’d not come by, as we couldn’t get any response to our Airbnb messages.
It’s a noisy area; we had trash trucks waking us up one morning, and at 7am Sunday morning we were awakened by a large group of people talking and laughing in the street outside. The room has a balcony overlooking parking and a dumpster, so needless to say we kept the curtain closed and didn’t use the balcony. Window in the room needs a blackout curtain, as the streetlight shines in brightly at night. If you’re looking for a lower cost, clean, comfortable place -this is it. But beachfront Resort it is not.
