This is an outstanding value given the location. It is surrounded by great restaurants and a short walk to the beach. It is a secure building. The elevator requires a key card to enter and to select the floor. The host couldn't be nicer. If you want to stay in Waikiki and avoid the prices of the high end hotels this is a great option. The only downside is garbage collection for the nearby high-rises started early. That would be a similar problem no matter where you stayed in this area and is to be expected in a city. I would definitely stay here again.
