This is a great location very close to the beach and the marinas that many tours go out of. The view is stunning and it is within walking distance to shops, restaurants, ocean tours, etc. The room is a bit small we had four adults and it did seem like we were kind of on top of each other. The room was very clean and had beach gear that came in handy. Some things to think about is you do have to wash your own towels which we really didn't mind they do have paid laundry in the building. The Beds are very comfortable. The room does have a window unit for air conditioning but it is very loud and keeps the room fairly comfortable. I did get hot at night even with it running but I like to sleep cold. We did have one major problem with this location. James did warn us that one of the elevators was under maintenance so wait times might be longer this turned out to be a problem. Not only was one elevator down the other went down about five times during our stay. The room is on the 39th floor. this left us stuck on either the top or the bottom when the elevator went down. Climbing 39 flights of stairs wasn't really feasible as my 79 year old Grandmother was with us and she could not make that climb. At one point we were stuck at the bottom for about two hours. We were also stuck in our room for two hours at another point. The biggest problem came one day when the fire alarm went off causing us to have to make the 39 flight trek down. This was very difficult for my grandmother and caused her to miss out on other activities in Hawaii because she was hurting. I also had to help her get down. This is not handicap friendly or old age friendly. I spook to a few building residence and they said that the downed elevators were a very common problem that had been going on for about 6 years. If this will be a problem for you I suggest looking else where. It also caused worry on the day of our flight out because we feared that we would not be able to get our luggage down if the elevators were stuck. This caused us to leave much of our belongings in the rental car that night which was not secured due the the garage gate being broken. My other word of warning is the parking spaces are very small and hard to pull into I would definably suggest getting the smallest car possible. James was an amazing host and the elevator problem was not his fault but was a problem that travelers should be aware of. James answered very quickly and tried to fix any problems to the best of his abilities. The room does have an amazing view that I very much enjoyed. The area did feel safe even walking around at night their are some homeless but also 24 hour security guards around.
