Aloha fellow guests. We were recently here mid September. My husband and I booked it because it seemed nice through pictures. The place (in pictures) looks bigger than it actually was.
This was supposed to be a comfortable stay since we just got married and had our wedding. It was anything but that!
Here’s what we experienced!
•The price point we reserved for was $110USD per night. Definitely not worth the money.
•Location was not the best. We were on the 13th floor and it was so tiny and had a stench the entire time. We were also next door to a 7-11 and cops and druggies and homeless people everyday.
•The room (or listed as “condo”) was super tiny. I’d say a motel 6 would be bigger.
•There are no closets and only 3 plastic hangers left on the hooks in the entry.
•There was no iron. Good thing I brought my steamer!!!
•There was no actual laundry basket. The laundry basket was used as a trash bin. They had already lined it with a garbage bag.
•There are no screens on the windows. And I saw huge cockroaches on the outside sill.
•There are no mirrors except for the small bathroom mirror. So good luck getting ready or seeing what your outfit looks like. I could not see my wedding dress or even do my makeup.
•The bed felt like cardboard. It was so hard. Only 2 pillows were available.
•There we’re no extra towels. Just a set of 2.
•Upon arrival I opened up the mini freezer and it was all iced over. I guess the temperature was too cold. I emailed him right away and he said he would fix it once we left. Because of the temperature it froze out leis we were supposed to wear for our wedding ceremony and we had to throw them out. I was so upset since I paid $150 for them the day before!!!
•Upon arrival I noticed the towel bar was broken and part of the blinds in the bathroom were missing. I also contacted him about that. He said the last guests broke it but he forgot to tell me… yeah so I emailed him back saying I’m not going to get blamed for any of it!!
•A bottle of conditioner broke and fell on my husbands foot in the shower so we had to throw it out. When I told the host at time of checkout, he was so concerned about his $10 bottle of hair conditioner. So unreal!!!
•And last but not least… this place is at a hotel!! Meaning the host calls it a “condo” when in fact it’s a tiny room. If you reserved through Airbnb, you are not allowed to use the front desk concierge whatsoever. You check in through a lockbox located outside the hotel and checkout through the lockbox. There are a mix of hotel guests and Airbnb guests.
Phew 😅 That was a lot!!
So in conclusion, this tiny place is worth a maximum of $50 USD and nothing more. Maybe even less! Just a place to lay your head then be gone for the rest of the day.
I would suggest the Ala Moana or someplace renovated.
We will not ever be staying here ever again.
This is not what I envisioned our wedding/honeymoon to be.
Mahalo nui for the read and I hope this helps someone thinking about reserving!
