First, the host was great with her communication and flexibility. I booked the room and then wanted to shift a day a week later. She didn’t blink an eye making that change. The pull out sofa was broken so they put in an extra bed for us. Very nice! The room was clean and quite.
I’ve stayed at this location many times but this was the first time using Airbnb. The room set up, accommodations and amenities were similar and what I’ve become a custom to at the Banyan. These are not luxury rooms so I wouldn’t have high expectations. However I find them perfectly acceptable for myself and children. Plus, we are in Hawaii, most of our time is spent out of the room anyway. The one thing I did miss was a dresser so we could unpack clothes. Not a huge deal but makes organizing with three kids much easier.
Location is great, there is a pool and hot tub, laundry if needed and an awesome koi pond in the lobby. Two things to be aware of, and no fault of the host, are the elevators can be very slow (have been for years) and street is probably the windiest in Waikiki But as soon as you get to the beach the wind stops! 😁.
