Tiare was courteous and assisted us with an early check-in which was appreciated. Communication was prompt and helpful. The property is located in a high rise a few streets back from Waikiki Beach. A short walk and you will arrive at the beach, numerous restaurants and convenience stores. The property is older but is very clean, has great views of the mountains and water glimpses. The main criticism is the noise. Given the location, you do expect some suburban city noise, sirens, people etc, but this is exacerbated by some maintenance issues such as windows which do not properly close allowing noise in. This combined with older style wall mounted air conditioners in the living room and bedroom and noisy ceiling fans caused us to resort to earplugs to sleep. You will need to take this into account if you are a light sleeper. If you are expecting hotel-like amenities then Tiare's place is not for you. Overall we were satisfied with our 5-night stay.
