Wonderful location close to everything downtown! Being at the corner apartment on the top floor is amazing and the view is spectacular.
The kitchen and laundry are extremely convenient and they have cleaning equipment, laundry and dish soap, towels, and spare sheets to use.
The place does not have AC and it can get warm during the afternoons and evenings, but Marcy offered an AC unit to use if i needed it. I adjusted to the temperature with the help of the fans they provided, but I recommend for 2 or more parties to ask for the AC unit. It was not “hot” but if you are used to cool AC, this will feel different as the condo relies on generous tradewinds to cool the room. This worked 90% of the time but like I said when the sun was setting it did get really warm. Just something to think about.
The parking spot is a wonderful convenience as well, but like all spots in HI, they are on the small side so be careful with big trucks. Having said that, i never had issues with my Sante Fe.
The elevator is right next to the room and is rarely, if ever, busy so the commute in and out of the apartment was quick and easy.
The people in the condo are so nice! Always welcoming and a neighbor even worked with the security guard to review the security tapes to return my apple ipod earbuds when i lost them! I did not expect such a friendly community.
The building/mailing address is frustrating and at no fault to the owners, but it often led to my uber or door dash deliveries getting lost or delayed because GPS often takes them the wrong way. Marcy can explain more and offers advice upon check in that helped, but I found that delivery folks rarely read my instructions and got lost.
The noise from the street never really bothered me at all, just your typical urban noise. I often slept with the patio open but if you closed it you barely heard any noise.
Overall, 5 star place at a great price. Little on the older side but I loved it and the host were SUPER responsive and always helpful, and even were kind enough to help with a scheduling conflict that really helped me. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone in the area considering a place for long term stay.
