This is a great place to stay when visiting Oahu. The location was a short walk to Waikiki Beach and the Ala Moana Mall (about 0.5 mi for each). Getting to the main part of Waikiki is a bit longer (about 1.2 mi to the International Marketplace). This wasn't an issue for us as we had a car - the free parking is a huge bonus here. A lot of reviewers mentioned the elevator issue. While we were there, we were down to one elevator for some periods, but there was always at least one working. I believe that they are nearing completion on the elevator repairs anyway. James was a great host, very responsive. We had two minor issues, one with the wifi and one with a noisy smoke alarm in the next room. On both he took action the same day we alerted him, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend this place.
