It seems to be an old apartment building that was turned into small rooms with a shared bath. This may not be its actual history, but that’s how it appears to me—it reminded me very much of a guesthouse I lived in in Bangkok (minus the maids). I really like this sort of set up, so it was the perfect place for my Honolulu stay. My one small disappointment was that the room has only air-con, no fans. I chose to sleep with my windows (screened and made of louvered slatted glass) open because air-con in Honolulu seems like overkill.
I needed to transfer from a one-night stay from a different place (I put together this trip rather last minute and was thus unable to find a nine-night stay at a place in my low price range) to Jayson’s and they totally accommodated me in this, which was exceptionally challenging because I’ve lost my phone. Kudos, Jayson!!!
Glenn, their on-site manager/handyman, is a gem!
If you like low-key accommodations, this is the place for you.
