The apartment itself was dated, but really clean (floors, fluffy towels, soft linens) which helped make me feel more comfortable.
Additional blanket provided was a nice touch since this meant we each got our own blanket to use. Mattress (1) & pillows (4) were comfortable.
Not much closet space (for 2 girls). The drawer wasn’t the cleanest, but I think it was more old than dirty. We didn’t use the drawer.
The major renovation I would advise is for building management to take care of the bathroom ceiling (in the front tub area). This was my biggest turn off in the apartment as it looked like it was falling apart. It’s not a deal breaker, but it would add value to the unit if they fixed this.
Only one set of keys. Fine if you don’t mind staying with the other guest the whole vacation or coordinating when to get back. I would not recommend more than two ppl in this unit anyway. I believe the unit was under 300 sq feet, which is similar to other units in Waikiki at this price range.
The sliding door near the bed is not easy to open and close. The sliding door near the kitchen was fine.
Some sketchy neighbours; encountered in the elevator and heard some screaming/arguing one morning. However, if the price is right, I would still come back to stay at this unit. The hosts had great communication and the apartment itself was very clean. Perfect for showering and sleeping.
