Incredible view, central location, accomodating and easy to navigate within the hotel. Can't recommend the smart car rental within the hotel enough, we went 30 mins to an hour in different directions all across the island, on 2 different days! Way better to do a self guided tour for less of a cost than the ones you can book online, we did both and were fairly disappointed with the bus tour around the island. Manoa falls trail is one of the most incredible hikes we've ever been on, and is ~20 minutes from home base. Lots of great bars and restaurants close aswell, maleko coffee in the lobby is great. Brew and Foam on the corner block outside the hotel is amazing. Try the Jalapeno Mouth beer from Waikiki Brewing House (which is about 60 seconds down the street), it is truly the best beer we've ever had. Good view of soccer games across the canal at night and rowing teams early in the morning! Great place, exactly what you're looking for.
