This is a quiet, clean, privately owned room, in a quirkily charming, old fashioned hotel (still part hotel, part privately owned rooms), a piano player in the front lobby in the evenings, fun bar with live music on the 2nd floor. A great location across from the zoo, on the quieter side of Waikiki Beach. The view from the lanai (balcony) of Diamond Head, the Zoo, and the Ocean (including sunset) really is incredible. Pretty clean, a little problem with the tub/shower not draining so well, but Francisco said he was going to fix that after I left (I asked him not to disturb me while there). Francisco very enthusiastic, responsive and friendly on emails (never net him). Good price compared to other hotel rooms. All in all a solid 4 starts in my estimation.
