The first thing we noticed upon arrival is that the apartment had a bit of a stale smell. After turning on the air conditioning, the smell had subsided but did not completely go away. We would still catch whiffs of what we could only describe as smelly feet. We believe the smell was coming from the couch that seemed to be very old.
The shower curtain in the bathroom was stained orangey brown with mildew and soap scum. We did not feel clean after showering in that tub. At the very least, the toilet was clean. We were provided 6 towels that also had a moist smell that was not pleasant.
The listing advertised that the apartment comfortably sleeps 6 but it more realistically comfortably sleeps only 4. The springs in the sofa bed do not provide any support and is far from comfortable and we would not recommend anyone sleep on it.
On our first night, we saw 1 cockroach run across the kitchen counter although we did not see any others for the remainder of our stay.
The WiFi requires that you sit directly beside the modem in order for it to work.
If you plan on doing laundry, make sure you bring plenty of quarters. Each load costs $2 to wash and $2 to dry. The front desk will only provide change to the hotel guests only.
On a positive note, the location is great. It is less than a 5 minute walk to Waikiki beach. Make sure you bring beach towels as this B&B does not provide them and restricts you from using the room towels at the beach. Overall this B&B had a very dated feeling that seemed to be from the 80s and did not quite resemble the photos.
I have frequented many B&Bs and this room is by far the most deceptive from the advertised experience. If all you care about is location, this room will suffice. If you at all put value in creature comforts, I would look elsewhere.
