Matt's place was in a convenient location--a little bit away from the center of Waikiki craziness. It was nice to have the beach chairs, boogie boards & snorkeling stuff available for use. We love the onsite parking and believe it was a reasonable price--it was definitely more convenient than looking for parking in the rain. We had a few issues with the condo itself--nothing than Matt could of fixed during our stay.
First, if you are sensitive to mildew/mold, this is not the place for you. I realize Hawaii is a very humid climate, but the mildew smell in the unit was overpowering as someone with an allergy to mold (my husband was even bothered by it and does NOT have an allergy). We were unable to relax and unwind in the unit because of this. Basically slept & showered and that was it.
Second, the curtains for the wall of window did not operate very well and were a constant source of frustration. They definitely need updated with something that provides more light blocking and privacy as you are only on the second floor.
As other's have mentioned the toilet is very near the bed. I didn't think this would be too much of an issue but it was. The bathroom door is a pocket door with a louvered top so it did not provide much privacy for either party. A fan or bathroom spray would of been an excellent touch.
Overall we had a fantastic time in Hawaii despite the condo issues & bad weather. I learned a few questions to ask in the future.
