Alex was really easy to communicate with, and we were met and shown around by his business partner on time and it all worked very smoothly.
This place is REALLY well located - a few blocks from everything you could want to do in Honolulu, plus also right by the bus stop, close to a great grocery store (Food Pantry) and lots of bars. You can walk to the beach in under 5 minutes, close enough to get that and then pop back for the sunscreen your forgot.
The studio is small and basic, but the essentials are all perfect - lots of towels, very good AC and a ceiling fan for the hot nights, totally reliable wifi and two balconies for enjoying the evening air. It is a bit noisy at night, but perfect if you just need a base and want to be out enjoying yourself most of the time.
The kitchen is tiny but has all the basics you need, although not really set up for fancy cooking. It does have a coffee maker, toaster oven, bottle opener and full set of plates, glasses, mugs etc.
Overall, very highly recommended and perfect for what we wanted.
