Our rooms were small but adequate. The location was key for us because we didn't spend much time actually in our space. We were a short walk from the beach, the zoo, and we even hiked up to Diamond Head by foot to explore up there. There were several awesome restaurants nearby, some we visited multiple times. The nearby ABC stores were well stocked for our breakfast needs.
The only downside was how close our place was to the neighboring hotel which didn't seem to have any quiet times. Once we played a white noise app on our devices we were fine. Perhaps bring ear plugs? A small exchange for staying so close to "the action".
Mark was outstanding with communication prior to the trip. We used his suggestions and arrived fully prepared to get around using varied transportation options.
We had no issues whatsoever with our stay.
