This was my first experience with Airbnb, so I didn't exactly know what to expect. I never got a chance to actually meet him, but still Jason made such a great host- and definitely set the bar high for any future hosts.
I booked "A View of Paradise for 2" for my fiancé and I to stay for 6 nights. First of all, Jason made sure to keep me posted as the date of my trip approached. He even let us check in early because our flight landed early and we got our rental car faster than we anticipated. He already had the room ready for us & just left the room keys & parking pass for the lot across the building ($12/day) in a lockbox near the lobby. I just left the my money for the parking pass for him in the lockbox.
The room was just as pictured, except a little smaller than it looked, but perfect for 2. Right when we walked in, the first thing we noticed was how cool it felt from the AC, and how clean and bright the room was. The view was awesome from the 37th floor. The bed was one of the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in, and the sheets & comforter were very soft and comfy. l have to remember to ask him where he got the comforter from because I loved it so much. He also left us snacks on the cute little table & put some water in the fridge for us. The kitchen came in handy too. The room basically had everything we needed, and even cleaning supplies, including a vacuum & swiffer so we could clean up any messes.
The location was great. Walking distance to Waikiki. Although we spent most of our trip further away from the city, we enjoyed our nights that we did walk to Waikiki.
Overall, Jason made our first experience with Airbnb an awesome one! He made everything so smooth and easy for us. Anytime we had any questions, he was available to help us in a timely manner. We had such a great vacay & having Jason's condo to come home to for the week, was a big part of our enjoyment. I am definitely going to try to book this condo again, or check out some of Jason's other listings for my next trip to Honolulu.
