TLDR: Stay here if you have kids! For the price, you can't get these amenities and this location with parking anywhere in Waikiki. Highly recommended. Pros: 1. Excellent building amenities. So convenient to have a playground and a pool in the building. We flew in from the west coast and the three hour time difference resulted in 4AM wake ups. It was so nice to have a quick trip down the elevator to a playground for my daughter and a coffee shop for me. Also excellent for the end of the day to wind down before bed. We would do pool, shower and change, dinner at the cafe and then playground to get the wiggles out. 2. Excellent location. On the days that the playground was booooring, we would head to the beach during our early mornings. Quick block and a half (passing a starbucks) to the area of Waikiki beach that has a retaining wall so there aren't any large waves. There are small fish you can feed and excellent sand for castle building. Very close to the zoo and the aquarium as well (though we didn't make it this trip). Walking distance to shopping at international marketplace and food all along kalaukea. And of course, being in Waikiki, you're close to Ala Moana and Kapahulu area for good shopping and food. 3. Free parking. Also, you can have extra paid parking in the building for the nights I needed a baby sitter. Huge. 4. Easy check in and out. Rina was very responsive to any issues (we didn't have any but she asked us if we needed anything). Cons: 1. This is a basic apartment with basic supplies - dishes, utensils, etc. Which was fine with us but I can see some people wanting more. 2. A little irked that the floors were dusty when I arrived but the cleaner was on crutches, so I can see it being difficult to clean floors. Also, after a couple of days, we got the floors pretty dirty ourselves with sand that will naturally come in, so not a big deal. I just noticed the dust initially since I was planning on bringing my crawling nine month old (but didn't) and that may have been an issue. 3. Pool can get crowded but my non-swimmer was ok going back and forth between the pool and the hot tub to practice floating. 4. Would have been nice to have beach towels / straw mats for the beach (I left our sand bucket and toys for the next family). Honestly, I'm from Hawaii and I don't know of any hotel in wakiki that has so many kid friendly amenities. I prefer to walk, so this was perfect for me and my lifestyle. And when I did have to drive, it was so convenient to have free parking. If you need everything to be brand new and granite or quartz, maybe this isn't the place for you, but if you just need a good...
