Alyssa's place is a budget-friendly stay and you get what you pay for. My boyfriend and I knew we wouldn't be staying at the condo that much because we would be out exploring, so this place was perfect for us. The condo fits two people comfortably. The building is a bit old and run down, but the condo had everything we needed - bed, fridge and bathroom/shower. We felt safe at the location and is in walkable distance to Waikiki beach/strip. A car is not needed if you wanted to just stay in the general area. However, a car is recommended if you were to explore other parts of the island. However, parking can be difficult since it is only street parking. During our stay, we parked our car at the harbor near Red Lobster, which was $1/per hour. Alyssa was quick to respond! Overall, stay was good.
