Eriko was very helpful. The "studio" is basically an hotel room, made smaller with the addition of a small sink, hot plate, coffee maker, and small fridge. We did have a great view of sunrise and the canal. My only suggestion would be to check with the hotel, the Hawaian Manarch for deals. We met people who were on the 24 th floor with an ocean view for $80/ night, with the advantage of housekeeping, which Eriko's on the 10th floor does not have. Very small window air conditioner was adequate in Feb. but doubt it could cool the room in summer.
