The view, sitting on the small balcony was 110%. Over the zoo, Diamond Head, beach and ocean. Not an apartment block in sight. Loved it. Room was same size as small/medium size hotel room. I like apartments, as they are usually bigger, though you get what the photos show. Would have loved a chair to sit on, other than the bed, but the unused kitchen bench takes the space. Great if you want to cook. This end of Waikiki is so much better than the other end. Have always stayed at this end, and almost booked down Hilton Village end this time for a change, and walked down there, and so glad we were here instead. Only disappointment was the pool, not open first day, as water not clean, and didn't bother to look at it after that. The beach was fine though, as it is near shady tree area.
