Theresa’s apartment is an outstanding value for Waikiki. It’s not an upscale hotel, but it’s a fraction of the cost.
The location is great especially if you have a car. It’s an easy location to get on the freeway towards Pearl Harbor and any town outside of Waikiki. Finding street parking was not something I attempted. I used the $15 per day lot and that was fine with me because it’s a lot less than parking anywhere else.
The apartment was very clean. If you’ve never traveled to Hawaii be prepared for humidity and an abundance insects. Inside the apt all the linens were fresh and I didn’t see even one insect. Even in the best hotels there is usually a musty smell, I don’t know how they manage to keep the apartment so fresh.
There were towels and beach supplies which is very nice and saves needing to buy what you need to enjoy the beaches. There is also a couple of convenience stores next to the building. It’s a local vibe so expect to find a few homeless. There is a nightclub behind the building, it’s one of the oldest bars in Waikiki. It was a little loud one night, but it didn’t bother me. I probably should have gone down there for a tropical drink.
