What an amazing space! The location was superb, just out the door and on the beach! There were also plenty of things around to do- I loved the $5 Mai Tai's at Hula's Happy Hour, and the coffee at Banyan Breeze just a few blocks away was unbelievable! Do yourself a favor and skip the Starbucks and Seattle's Best! The pictures were 100% accurate- the place is small but sufficient, especially if you are like most and really just need a bed and a shower while on vacation. And the sunset view from the 10th floor- breathtaking! If you are one that spends tons of time in your room on vacation and need the comforts of a 5 star hotel, then you should look for that instead! But this place is an amazing value! The other comments about the noise are also accurate, but we were pretty tired at the end of each amazing day, so we slept through, and because of the time difference we were awake fairly early (by 7am usually) so the morning noise didn't bother us much either. One other note- if you are a runner this place is perfect! I was able to go just outside and to the left for an amazing almost 10 miler down the beach and around Diamond Head. There were plenty of runners around the area, so I felt pretty secure, and definitely stopped to take pictures to make all my runner friends at home super jealous! :) I am so happy that we chose this place, and we will definitely contact Kurt again when we return to Hawaii!
