Richard is a great host - very communicative and helpful. The place itself is a little basic and dated, but its location more than makes up for that. It is a hotel room, something we were not aware of until arrival, which was a little weird but we just went with it. All that means is that there is no kitchen or living space - so no room for real cooking beyond eating snacks in bed or on the balcony.
The room was super clean, and kitted out with towels (both beach and shower), toiletries, ample bed linens and a cute chocolate on the bed.
The location and price for that location is really where this accommodation shines. It is a 5 minute walk to Waikiki beach, and walking distance to anywhere in Waikiki. If you're looking for a budget alternative to staying in one of the fancy Waikiki hotels, this is the place for you.
