I highly recommend Richard’s apartments for those of you who wish to avoid paying twice as much or more for a hotel room. Richard is very kind, as are the people who tend to stay at his AirBnB. For a fraction of what you would pay for just a hotel room, you get a room plus the rest of an apartment which includes a kitchen with all the amenities. There is a Safeway across the street for you to stock up on snacks, etc. and it’s walking distance to several restaurants. You can walk straight down Piikoi (the street you are on) to the ocean (about a 20 min walk). You can stay at that beach or catch a trolley (The Pink Line) for $2 and get dropped off right in the heart of Waikiki. I’m typing this from 35,000 feet in the air on my way home. I will be back....and I will definitely do my best to stay again at Richard’s apartments.
