This was my first time doing AirBnB and it was an amazing experience. The place is in a good spot where it's easy walking distance between Ala Moana Center and Waikiki. The suite is city-facing and a corner unit so you get a nice view of the city and the bustling streets full of travelers and locals. It is right across from ABC store for easy every-day necessities. Parking can be difficult but it is next to the Marina Parking Garage that allows for overnight parking for people living in the nearby hotels and easy in-and-out access to your car. The ladies that manage the parking lot can be a pain so be nice and patient. Trolley and bus stops right in front of the hotel makes it easy to hop on and go where you need if you don't want to rent a car.
It is city-facing and on the 8th floor of the aging Ilikai Hotel so expect to hear the city life noises during the day and night and potentially your next door residences due to thin windows and walls. You won't really see the ocean from the suite and it not near the beach side so you will have to walk some distance to reach the beaches. Suite has been renovated but does show some signs of wear but appliances and showers all worked fine. The wall-mounted AC units provide enough cooling but are very loud.
Overall great spot for touring and shopping.
