This is a great location from which to see Honolulu but not be in the thick of Waikiki. Well appointed apartment so had a very comfortable stay with access to hotel pool and hot tub. Walking distance to stores and local restaurants, however, be aware that most in the immediate area are closed by 6 pm - so if you arrive later that 6 pm just pick up something to eat before you check-in - you will have a great view of the city lights from this apartment while you eat your take-out. One of the reasons I selected this place because it also had a dedicated parking place in the building's parking garage - a great benefit!!! If you are coming to Honolulu to attend Hawaii Pacific University (or are bringing a new HPU student here) - THIS IS THE PLACE FOR YOU - the main campus is literally 3 blocks away (a happy coincidence I wasn't aware of when I made family travel plans to come here to help our child settle into HPU as a first year student.
