As they say : Location, location, location! This place gets an A+ for location. The parking ramp was full when we were there (apparently you can call ahead and make parking reservations. Their lot is considerably cheaper than any other nearby lot so it fills up quick), but there is a lot right across the street that was only slightly higher ($1.50/hr) and street parking if you can find it. Mark's place provides everything you need and there are ABC stores near by for basic needs and shopping pleasure. Lulu's at the end of the block towards the beach has excellent food. Prices were surprisingly decent. The beach is as described, a very very short distance away. You can walk the entire distance of Waikiki Beach without needing your car. Response from Mark and his team is very quick.
