The room was very clean. Bathroom and kitchen were also clean. As a woman traveling alone, it was nice to have a lock on the bedroom door and bathroom door. The residents were friendly and helpful and seemed to be longer term working people. The neighborhood is very urban and it was quiet noisy in the evening, although after a few nights, it's not noticeable. It is very close to buses tha go all over the island and is about a 20-25 minute walk to Ala Moana beach park. Overall a great deal.
