The location is perfect. We stayed at other hotels in the area before and this location is right in the middle of all the action. The room itself was great. The patios were a nice place to hang out. Parking was very convenient. Getting to the beach and back was also easy and convenient. The building goes into fob only access mode at night so feels very secure. Jerry gave all the info we needed to check in by ourselves and we never needed to reach out to him the whole trip as we had no issues with our stay.
My only complaint is the noise level at night in this room. The windows are typical of most on the island and are louvered. That type provides for very little noise suppression. It didn’t make much difference with the window opened or close as the noise coming in at night was the same. It’s waikiki and people party till late so your going to here that and the service vehicles are running from 4am on so expect dump truck noise, etc. This is not a problem for heavy sleepers like my wife as she slept fine each night but for me I was woken up every other hour. I got ear plugs on day three and that helped out some.
I don’t want to put a ding on this place as it was still an awesome place to stay but I think if you’re a light sleeper you should factor this in.
