Lin's place was very cozy and convenient for our stay in Honolulu. The place was very clean and had everything we needed. We made use of the kitchen several times and appreciated the provided appliances and equipment like the blender, cutting board, knives, pots/pans, etc. She even provided beach equipment (floaties, beach chairs, boogie board, beach umbrella) for us in the bedroom closet. The living room and bedroom TVs were great and the living room couch was very comfortable. The balcony connecting to the bedroom lets in a lot of sunlight and is very comfortable to sit on during the day. The available parking space in the garage was also convenient (note: the space is narrow), and we were able to use the laundry room on the first floor (machines take coins or credit card).
The location is walking distance from the Ala Moana, Waikiki, and Fort DeRussy beaches. While the location is very convenient to everything, one thing to note if you are a light sleeper is that the unit is facing one of the busiest main roads of Honolulu and is on the 4th floor. Unfortunately, the bedroom window and balcony don't block out that much noise from the street, so all sorts of noises (lots of shouting, motorcycle and car engines, radio sounds/music) can be heard from the street all night. The A/C unit and fan in the bedroom window works well and does help to block out noise, but you will need to find a way to block the cold air from blowing on your head.
Overall, we highly recommend Lin's place if you are looking for a great value and a convenient place with a very reliable, helpful, and communicative host!
