While the location is great, only blocks from Waikiki Beach, a bus stop on the corner with multiple bus routes, Biki bike rentals on the adjacent street corner, we were incredibly disappointed with our stay. Richard seemed friendly in correspondence prior to the trip and responsive while we were there, but the entire unit is outdated, in need of repairs and serious cleaning. The pictures and description don't capture the fullness of truth in the unit. Because my fiancée and I were visiting family for a week from the east coast and this was our first AirBnb stay we didn't have time or energy to deal with going back and forth with Richard about all of the issues while trying to manage resting from jet lag and time with family. We did reach out about the filthy bathroom vents and dirty microwave which were apparent the first morning after we arrived. Although someone was sent to clean the vents and microwave it was one thing after another. In order to actually take a shower we had to thoroughly clean it which took three separate occasions where we were scrubbing it on our hands and knees. There was actual black filth coming off of it, leading us to believe it had not been scrubbed in a while. My fiancée felt anxiety every time she had to use the shower because of the knowledge of how dirty it was the first time she used it and from seeing the filth on the wipes as we cleaned it. The wallpaper was peeling in numerous places around the unit. The end tables were dusty and the windows dirty as well, we cleaned both. We bought our own cleaning products and did an entire cleaning of the space. The vacuum cleaner in the closet and the toilet bowl brush had dust on them so it appeared that these hadn't been used either. We also dealt with the frustrations of a broken flapper flush valve in the toilet so every time we flushed we had to open the toilet tank and replace the rubber valve which would leave black smears on our hands. Additionally, the air conditioner from the unit above was leaking water onto the lanai which made it stressful sitting or standing out there worrying about getting water poured on you. Making the great views not as great. Ultimately we did not enjoy returning to the space and felt misled. Again, Richard was friendly enough but kindness didn't translate to cleanliness in the space nor an enjoyable experience. Now that we thoroughly cleaned it, it may seem better but we still would not stay here again and wouldn't recommend it to anyone.
