Our stay at this cozy one bedroom place was great!! I have to admit it looks much bigger in the pictures, but for 3 people it was exactly what we needed! Check-in and check-out was a breeze. We did not get to meet Chifumi or Daniel personally but their property manager was great.
My parents stayed in the main bedroom and stated the bed was pretty comfortable; the pillows however definitely need to be updated very little support. The pullout bed in the couch was where I stayed and that was surprisingly comfortable, but again the same issue with the pillows. There is a TV in the small living room and its very small, maybe the size of a large computer monitor, but we didn't spend much time watching TV so it wasn't a problem. WiFi worked great. Kitchenette was a great resource to have. The stove is electric and pots and pans are included, coffee pot and toaster too. Honestly, we went with the idea that we would be cooking more at “home” but found such great restaurants nearby that our plans ultimately changed. If you end up sticking to your plan to cook, the Safeway is a very short distance away.

The BEST thing about the studio is that it is only about 10 minutes walking to Waikiki beach!! We would be up early and walk down to the beach and spend most of the day there. Tons of shops and restaurants there if beach bumming isn't what you want to do. Honolulu Zoo is right by the beach and they hosted activities 3 out of the 6 days we were there, great for kids! Diamond Head park is not far either. The Rainbow Drive-In is literally right around the corner from the studio. If you eat anywhere, EAT THERE! There is nothing I had that I did not LOVE!

One downside is that the place does not come with parking. We rented a car for the week and luckily did not have very much trouble parking on the same street or nearby but it was worrisome when the car was a little further away.

All in all, my family and I greatly enjoyed this place and Oahu in general. Can’t wait to come back and hopefully stay here again!
