We would have given this nice condo five stars except that the freezer would not keep things frozen and wouldn't even freeze ice. We purchased frozen Hawaiian pasteles ($$) and malasada to take back to the mainland but the freezer would not keep them frozen and a bag of ice and ice cream melted in the freezer. This is an older building and there were two fire alarms in the ten days we were there, requiring us to evacuate the building from the 28th floor using the stairs (at 10:30pm for one of them). The sliding bathroom door kept falling off its track.
Otherwise the condo was clean, comfortable, spacious, well decorated, with a great view of Diamondhead and in a good location a block from the beach and plenty of dining options. The bed was comfortable and there were plenty of towels (including beach towels) in the condo. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cookware. A coin operated washer and dryer were also available on our floor. There were beach accessories available to borrow (free) at the fourth floor office which was very handy. The staff there was very friendly and helpful. There was a nice bottle of wine and a box of chocolates waiting for us in the condo when we checked in, and Jess, the owner, kept us very well informed prior to our arrival. Also, the free parking was a great feature and there were always plenty of spaces available. If the freezer was working correctly, or if someone doesn't need a freezer, we would definitely recommend this condo for a nice Honolulu/Waikiki stay.
