Just to set a few things here, this is an $80 room, so expect an $80 value.
Two bad things:
1. Fire alarm in the middle of the night, everyone had to evacuate the building, I saw an old lady sitting in the stairs not able to move due to her age. No one knew what was happening, even when police arrived 20 minutes later we had zero communication as of why we had to leave the building. Waited outside for 30-40 minutes. After that they let us back inside.
2. Key access card stopped working day 5, we still had 2 more days in the place.
Not able to get in the room or use the elevators. Contacted front desk which contacted Sachi, front desk told Sachi did not send updated list with my name, Sachi told me it was front-desk’s fault. Who knows!!
This took 30 minutes to get resolved, I wonder what happens if this happens and Sachi is not immediately available?
With that out of the way, I want to say that the communication with Saichi was perfect, he answered all my questions, though this was our second trip to Honolulu I still had some.
Check-in super simple!
Location is just OK. 15-20 minute walk from closest beach, around 30 min walk to Waikiki.
7-Eleven right around the corner was one of the best things! The couple of places that sell food at lobby level are overpriced. If you walk around you finds lots and lots of better ones.
Pool and hottub are on 4 level right above parking garage, the location was not really too inviting, most times that area had no people.
Now the room, for $80 you get what you pay for, it’s a small 15x20 room maybe? With a small bathroom with shower, that’s all! Bed was uncomfortable for my wife and I. Room was very dusty in corners and building is old.
Even with that, for the price it’s an ok deal.
I will personally spend a little more next time and stay closer to beaches and stay in a bit newer place.
