Cons:
- Old/dated building with narrow halls, thin walls (occasionally hearing others while in the room and/or smelling weed in the hallway)
- Location is definitely in Waikiki, but it's still quite a bit of a walk to the main drag/beach
- Bathroom mirror hung at awkwardly low height. I'm 5'8" and had to stoop
- Extremely narrow shower
- Hanging blinds were tricky to slide not, and would open (rod just spun and didn't do anything)
- No bed-side light (only the switch by the door and/or manual lamps by TV) or bed-side outlet (I moved the bed to reach an outlet and have my phone within reach of the bed)
Pros:
- Obviously newly renovated space- clean, modern, stylish
- Aloha Macs to welcome out stay (DELICIOUS)
- Comfy bed
- A/C was quiet and *extremely* efficient. It was hot and muggy when I arrived, so I turned on the unit and in maybe 5 minutes I needed to adjust it because I was cold.
- Comfy bed, great lighting, many channels on the TV
- Mini-fridge and freezer with ice cube tray
- GREAT view (24th floor- you can see the canal, mountains, and ocean) with great natural lighting
- Helpful amenities: extra towels, hot plate, assorted pots/cooking utensils, rice cooker, beach mats, beach towels, sunscreen, goggles, iron/ironing board, shampoo, conditioner, yummy-smelling soap, etc.
- Front desk had a bunch of pamphlets/brochures and there is a cafe, bakery, rental car facility, and pizza place all on the first floor
- Security will store your all your party's bags downstairs for $10 a day if you're in between AirBnBs and need someplace to securely put your luggage. This was extremely helpful. They also let us access our bags multiple times to grab different shoes/ change clothes, etc.
