We stayed at Halona‘s place for a few days. The apartment is located quite a bit off from most must-see spots for tourists, however the price per night is also significantly lower (although still anything but cheap…).
When we stayed, we had the entire unit to ourselves so that we could use the kitchen and the washer & dryer at our convenience. There may however be courses held in the common areas (which are supposed to run between 5 and 9. While we stayed, there was only a course on one night which went a bit longer then that so we were glad we had dined outside that night as we wouldn’t have been able to use the kitchen!).
I also had quite an issue with the cleanliness of the apartment. The entire kitchen had a greasy touch to it although it is regularly used by a chef and there were quite a few creepy critters in the apartment such as spiders and roaches in the kitchen area and also in the downstairs bathroom (which I could consequently not use as I am extremely arachnophobic).
All in all, the apartment was fine and we would probably stay there again if we were to return to O‘ahu.
