Firstly, I would recommend staying here. The location is just a 10-15 min walk to the Hilton Waikiki resort. It’s fairly close to the freeways and to multiple malls with plenty of food options. The space was very clean and the view is great. There are plenty of towels(and beach towels) and extra sheets as well. There is no official kitchen but all stove top items needed are provided. The smart car rental is located in the lobby and was easy to access. The area felt safe, and the building has 24 hr security.
Things to note:
1. The shower has very low water pressure and the shower head shoots out a narrow beam of water. Nit a deal breaker but definitely a set back.
2. In terms of leaving bags with security(if you need to check out but still have time to spend), they do not open until 8:30 am. Also, the lobby of the hotel charges $10 a piece of luggage, whereas security charges $10 for all of your luggage(or so we are told, but we didn’t have time to wait for security to open).
3. The building set up is a little odd. It’s a combo hotel/condo so depending on who you talk to, they may or may not be of help.
