We really enjoyed the central location of Mark's place in Waikiki. All the shopping, restaurants and bars we could ask for were steps away. Beach was also only two blocks away! Mark was responsive with all of our questions and accommodated an early check in. The free parking spot was especially nice. We made good use of the beach gear (chairs, umbrella, cooler, etc.), which was also very convenient.
The street noise was louder than anticipated. A decent nights sleep required ear plugs. Construction in the building also added to the noise level, which included people accessing the roof through the veranda throughout the day. Overall the space is a bit dated, but is also why it's such a value in the heart of Waikiki.
