This place was just what we needed! Perfect for just a couple that is willing to walk everywhere around Waikiki. We ended up using plenty of the connected stores to the place since it is a part of a large hotel unit. We rented a car with the connected rental place but didn’t really use it every day of our stay since the busy area of Waikiki was under a 10 minute walk. We did have it for the times we wanted to visit north shore or other cities in Oahu, all of which are under an hours drive to get to if you leave at less busy hours.
The pool and hot tubs were a great plus to our stay, the location is great for those that are able to walk around. And the connected shops were time savers to grab breakfast, quick snacks, and the 7-11 was right next door. Public laundry rooms took card and came in handy for the middle of our trip.
The large windows were beautiful to wake up to gorgeous sunrises since it faces the sunrise directly.
The downside to the large windows was the heavy wind would blow pretty hard making a lot of noise at night.
Another thing that is kind of out of the locations control is all the sound of the outside. You can easily hear the street noise of honking, large engines, people blasting their music in their cars, and people yelling. My husband and I are heavy sleepers so this wasn’t too much of an issue but that’s something to keep in mind for anyone else.
