Our vacation was to celebrate my wife’s 50th birthday. We decided to rent an apartment at The Waikiki Banyan for the 4 days we'd be in Waikiki. It was a 9 hr flight from Australia so she decided to have a nap on arrival, when we pulled back the covers we found a stain on the bottom sheet that looked like blood. There was also a stain on the top sheet. The 2 spots aligned perfectly which made it seem that the sheets hadn't been changed from the last guest! The next morning my wife decided to go for a swim in the pool only to be told it would be closed for the week due to maintenance. The noisy work on the pool continued relentlessly during our stay. On the 3rd day I went in to have a shower only to find there was no water! I could hear tools operating so I walked up 3 flights of stairs to find 3 men with all the pipes apart. When I asked them when the water would be back on they said around 5pm and "didn't I get the memo". I bumped into the next door neighbor who told me they were notified; we received no advance notice of this work at all from the host. The bar stools in the picture were not there, so there was nowhere to sit at a table to eat a meal or use a laptop at a desk. Why have a kitchen if you have to balance your plate on your lap sitting on the couch? There was dust on the furniture, the sheets were dirty, there was no water, the pool was closed and there was no table and chairs. All in all, very disappointing. We checked out a day early and went to a hotel. We sent 4 emails to the manager, but have not had any response to date to our concerns.
