Our party of five really enjoyed our stay at Alan's penthouse. It was comfortable, spacious and clean. We appreciated the air conditioned rooms and having the wash and dryer on hand. It's in a great location with great views and easy walking distance to Waikiki beach, restaurants and shops. If you live in an urban area with noise around you, the elevator motor shouldn't be an issue unless you're a light sleeper. We may have been fortunate during our time there since we didn't hear the early morning garbage pick-up. Kawika is awesome! He welcomed us and showed us around the penthouse and gave some great tips for our stay. He and Alan were kind in accommodating us with early check-in and quick to respond when we had questions. We would love to return and stay here again. Thank you, Alan!
