Recently spent five days at Tadashi's and I must say it's everything that you see in his pictures. It's super close to everything. You are basically 5-10 min walk from everything. Further, it's literally 3 mins from one of the best eats in Waikiki --- Marukame Udon ( a must go!).

We felt very safe and it was super easy to get up and go to places. The other convenience is having access to the complex's parking structure. We rented a car and were very very very happy not to pay the crazy parking fees!!

As far as the studio itself, there are a lot of boutique Hotels around but staying at Tadashi's was definitely the right choice. The studio was remodeled so it's fairly modern. The bed is comfy, there are tons of space (compared to a hotel room). We enjoyed a couple of meals on the balcony with the view. There is a washer/dryer combo unit. Really i can't speak highly enough of the place. If we go back to Waikiki, we will stay there again. One note: the kitchen is nicely appointed but there aren't any cooking knives. So if you plan to cook, you are out of luck.

The only thing that we didn't like during the stay was the excessive construction noise which is mentioned in the description. But if you don't spend much time in the studio itself, it's really not an issue.

I would totally book the place again for the price, the convenient location, and FREE Parking!

Thank you so much!!!

PS: The host was super responsive and was easy to work with. I initially had booked the place in Dec. but due to a death in the family I had to rebook my trip. Tadashi made it really easy!
