let me start off by saying the location is great if you don't like the busyness of Waikiki. plus it's a short drive to things like kualoa Ranch and climb works zip lining and north shore beaches. the building is older but they are in the middle of renovating it and it didn't affect our stay. the only draw back is that there is currently not any ac of any kind there are only fans and the windows open in the front and back creating a draft if the winds are blowing. on our stay it was a bit humid which made it sticky inside even with the windows open especially in the bathroom area because there is not any air flow through there. I am hoping the new host make some changes to make this more a good thing along with the building renovations.
