Young's room at Pacific Monarch was perfect for our stay! The location is short walking distance to all of the entertainment, beach, and restaurants Waikiki has to offer. Would highly recommend if you are visiting Waikiki for a short weekend since you'll be in walking distance to all of the notable shopping/eateries you see on travel sites, vlogs, etc. We had a car and was exploring all of Oahu, and having the discounted parking rate with the parking pass Young offered also helped us save a lot of money on parking on our trip as a whole. In the room, there were so many extra towels and beach gear including chairs, umbrella, snorkel gear, and boards too that we took with us while visiting other beaches.
Just a note on this area, there is considerable street level noise at night and early morning. For the heavy sleeper tired after a long day of exploring Hawaii, you'll be fine especially with the AC unit making its own kind of white noise to drown that all out. But if you are a really light sleeper who needs dead silence to fall asleep, make sure to take the noise into consideration. Otherwise, everything about our stay was fantastic!!!
