The view in this room is unreal! The photo's on the listing are great but It's honestly even better in person. The location is fantastic, it's a 5 minute walk from a nearby beach and marina and maybe a 10 minute or less drive to downtown area of Waikiki. (Quick tip- if you're looking for parking in the downtown area, and don't mind a very brief walk, park at The Shell Ampitheater. It's free!) There's an ABC store right next door that has all of your essential grocery and common items. We were able to save a bit of money by cooking breakfast/lunch in the room's kitchenette. There is a plug in stove, toaster oven, rice cooker, coffee maker, kitchen utensils, pots, pans, cups, plates, silverware- pretty much everything you'd need to cook a basic meal. And the bed... oh my, don't even get me started on this bed- it was SO COMFORTABLE. So comfortable that we're now looking into getting one for ourselves. The bathroom had towels (including 2 beach towels), 1 roll of toilet paper (you can buy more at the ABC store if needed), hairdryer, and little travel sized shampoos for use. The shower is on the small side, but the vanity has great space. There's also a bidet toilet seat, kinda freaks me out, but it's probably helpful for others after a sandy day at the beach! We had a fantastic trip and I would give this place 4.5 stars if I could- my only cause for concern was the elevator, I knew going into this space that one was under maintenance so I expected the longer wait times- which were never more than 5 minutes for us. What I didn't expect was when the working elevator went out of service, I'm pretty sure this was due to a severe thunderstorm that passed through midway through our trip but from that day the elevator was on and off at random times. 37 flights was not easy walking (especially when carrying 50lb luggage down), but a great workout I must say! I definitely wanted to mention this in case someone with a disability was looking to book the room- It would be terrible to not be able to leave your room because of the elevator being down- so just be weary or check with the host before hand to see if the maintenance has been resolved (the host was very kind and accommodating to us when we reached out about the issues we were having).
Overall we had an amazing experience- and I felt all the good outweighed the issues with the elevator. We would definitely stay here again!
