Staying at renew was great. The staff were amazing especially Owen the OG 🤙🏾. They were all welcoming and friendly as if having known them. The location for me was great, steps away from the beach and far enough from the hustle and bustle of central waikiki. It gave us the chance to hit the streets and explore the city which is really easy to do from here. 100% recommend for those wanting to explore and immerse themselves instead of staying in a resort.
