Most of the pros and cons are already in other people’s reviews, so I will not bore you with it. People usually do the Pros first, but you should know what the cons are…
Cons:
1.**CONSTRUCTION ALERT** Public Service Announcement, we are posting this because it wasn’t on the listing nor were we told about this. As of 10/2022, The unit upstairs is being renovated. The construction is limited to Mon-Fri 8AM-5PM. If you are out and about most of the day, you’ll never know. But if you are looking for quiet time at the condo, this might be an issue. Had we known about this ahead of time, we would have booked another unit. At times it got so loud, we had to leave then come back after 5pm. Just a heads up!
2. Air Conditioner is a window unit. It’s very cold but also loud.
3. Communication was quick during booking and checkout. But when we text them about a problem, it took them 21 hrs to reply. Granted we text them at 7pm.
4. Somewhat Dated.
5. Could use some deep cleaning of carpet and furniture.
Pro:
1.Location Location Location. 2 blocks from the beach of Waikiki and close to Diamond Head. Close to many shopping and food options.
2.Has just about everything, even a knife sharpener. We’ve stayed at many airbnbs around the world, and this is, without a doubt, the best equipped yet.
3.Comfortable bed, linen, and pillows.
4.Parking is included. Garage is short with tight spaces along with steep and acute ramps. Your raised Jeep and super stretched King Ranch will not fit.
5.Awesome (But limited) view of the beach, Ocean, and Diamond Head.
Overall, a good unit at a great location. Would we stay here again? Yes, if the construction upstairs is done. But if we have known there is construction upstairs, then no.
