We spent a week at Alexei's place during our visit to Hawaii. If you're looking for a place that is a block away from the ocean and a good place to crash during your travels, this should be up for your consideration! The unit is a studio, so be sure to understand that it's tighter quarters. That being said, the building is secure, the swamp cooler and fans kept things comfortable, and you really can't beat the location/value! I'd stay here again on future trips.
