The condo has been nicely updated and is actually nicer than the pictures show with new countertops, couches, and bedding. The building is older and certainly not fancy but we consciously traded luxury for space, a kitchen, and a washer/dryer. Most hotel rooms in Waikiki are a small one room. Here we were able to have our two teens in the front room and have a separate room to ourselves. The city view from the large lanai was great and the location was good for bus service or walking around Waikiki. We did have several maintenance issues with the condo( broken dishwasher and front doorknob ) but they were addressed fairly quickly. The maintenance manager Joe, is very friendly,responsive and accommodating. The condo could have had more attention to detail when it came to cleanliness but was overall ok. There was half eaten food left in the fridge which was kind of yucky. Communication upon arrival and regarding check in could be a lot better. I emailed multiple times about how to check in since we were coming in late at night but did not get adequate response in my opinion which created some anxiety but it worked out in the end. Overall it was a nice stay.
