We had a great stay here. The location is tough to beat. Very close to the beach and eveything in waikiki is walking distance. The hotel has a nice pool side restaurant and relaxing pool area. Being on the rooftop of the hotel is very unique and offers great views! Yes, there is some noise from the equipment rooms adjecent to the apartment and some stairs to climb but we expected that and if you have the doors closed the noise is not very noticeable. It was really nice having the kitchen as well as snorkeling gear, beach towels and chairs that we didnt have to bring.
