Richard's place is a simple but perfect gem in a tower just a couple blocks away from Waikiki/Kuhio beach. It was the easiest and most thorough experience from before-booking to after check-out. For the location and value, this place was the perfect stay for a two-person vacation. There were hardly any details that fell through the crack with Richard–his communication was very professional towards me and my guest.
The space offers a double bed, AC, mini kitchenette (fridge, sink, microwave, silverware/plates, coffee maker, toaster, plug-in stove), WiFi and TV, full bathroom with some toiletries available (shampoo/conditioner, lotion, sun screen, aloe, tanning spray, dewrinkler, soap, toilet paper) and some supplies (first aid, hair dryer, cleaning supplies), as well as some beach towels, extra sheets, snorkeling gear, hangers, and an ironing board! There were probably some more items I'm missing, but this place offered so much that made the stay even better than I expected. For this unit specifically, the view faces south, showing other hotels/towers next to the property. However, the beach and main strip are the shortest walk away that I did not mind the view was not "picturesque" (just walk 2 minutes to the beach for that)!
Luckily the property is secured access with security patrols nightly, so we felt very safe and private in our unit. There was a trash chute on our floor which made cleaning up very easy, and there was also a 24 hour convenience store at the base of the building making any last minute needs available at any time.
I would absolutely stay in one of Richard's listings again as he made the stay comfortable, clean, and stress-free. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a professional host and a simple yet wonderful stay. Mahalo nui loa, Richard!
