This stay is exactly what you get from the pictures. The location is ideal, being close to Waikiki and Diamond Head.
Pros:
The place is very clean.
Comes with everything you would need for a long-term stay. (washer*** & dryer*, beach chairs, towels, and boogie boards, broom & dustpan, vacuum, iron &ironing board)
Quiet neighborhood.
Good communication with host, very friendly.
Driveway parking spot.
Cons:
Walls are thin, can hear every noise from neighbors.
Limited cooking utensils. No dish washer or dishtowels (had to buy some).
***The washer!!!!!! 1. You have to pay $1.50 to wash and $2.00 to dry. Which isn’t terrible compared to going to a laundromat. However, the only major inconvenience to that is you can only pay in quarters. (I suggest getting a roll of them from a bank) Also, whenever we washed our clothes there was a tan/brown oil-like stain on our clothing items. It was all over our clothes after multiple different washes. I contacted the host about it and she said that she couldn’t find the problem. She told us that it was because we were washing our colors/darks with our lights/whites. This was definitely not what was causing the stains because they were splotchy tan/brown stains and I have never had an issue with combining lights & darks before.
Regardless, the place was overall perfect for our one-month stay and the pros definitely outweigh the cons.
