If you want to stay in a spot that has easy access to both downtown Honolulu and Waikiki then this is definitely the place for you. Cole is an excellent host and the condo is a great place to stay with just a few quirks to look for. The place has all the supplies you would expect from an Airbnb (cooking utensils and toiletries). There is a parking spot that is easy to use once you are able to properly figure out exactly where it is. There is an air conditioning unit in each room and a balcony on two of the rooms. There is also a larger balcony that faces out on Ala Moana. It is great for people watching but it also does get quite lively.
The two things to be aware of are 1. that the condo has glass shudders on a few rooms. The glass is held in place by metal hardware which can deteriorate with the sea air. If you are not paying close attention, the glass can come out of the hardware and break. This makes for an unpleasant moment for you, Cole, and the handyperson that gets to come and repair it. 2. The electronic lock on the front door is very persnickety. I think that it took an average of 3 times putting in the code for the lock to disengage fully. I twill eventually do so, but it takes some patience.
I really think if you have a larger group of people and want to stay in a proximate place to both Waikiki and Downtown Honolulu, you will not be disappointed by Cole's place.
