This was my first visit to not only Oahu but Hawaii as well. It can nerve racking finding a reasonable place to stay on the Island. Fortunately, the hostel space Jayson manages made the whole process a cakewalk.
Everything in the description is accurate with the inclusion that you are a couple of feet away from restaurants, convenience stores, and grocery stores. You are also less than a mile away from the lively Wakiki Beach and its surrounding businesses.
Jayson was quite responsive and his team was ready to help me out with any issues that arose. If you are going to Oahu with a budget on your mind, give this is a shot.
PS. If you plan to rent a car, let know Jayson ASAP. Parking is a bit limited in the residence and while there is free parking across the street spaces fill out quickly.
