Let’s start with the fact that the location is perfect. It is literally a block away from the beach. There is the spam masubi cafe around the corner and a delicious Korean spot too.
However, that’s probably the only good things about it. The shower was disgusting. My boyfriend and I literally wore our water shoes every time we showered. The bathmat looked old and dirty. The shower floor was rusty and the drain eroded. The outside of the tub was falling apart. The toilet seat was wobbly too.
The bed was a great size for both of us. But, like someone else mentioned, the sheets wouldn’t stay on at all! It was so annoying because every 2 minutes we would have to put them back on while sleeping.
The drapes were old, dirty, and completely shredded. The AC worked well, but the remote didn’t. The host did provide beach equipment, however we didn’t use any of it and bought our own.
There were 2 beach towels provided which was great so we didn’t need to buy them. And there were 2 regular shower towels for each of us.
The balcony is really tiny. So when you sit in the chair you’re basically staring at concrete. We didn’t care too much since we never sat out there.
The building itself is definitely old and rundown. There was a lot of construction going on, so hopefully they’re renovating it. We did like that you needed a key fob to get into the elevator. That made us feel safer.
Parking is $25/24 hrs. But there are maybe 10 spaces available for each tower parking garage. We noticed other people parking for different hotels, so if you need to park a car be sure to go early enough to get a spot.
All in all, it was an okay experience. I personally wouldn’t stay here again, but for the location I can definitely see the attraction. The capability to walk to Waikiki beach within 7 minutes was amazing.
