Positives are the view from balcony is accurate, but ends there. I think this is my only negative review ever on Airbnb…
Unit is a few stories up from an open air nightclub that raged until 2am, and is so 7 nights a week, bumping music and serving pitchers of mai tais to rowdy people.
Bathroom isn’t a “room” but a closet with an 2 old shower curtain where you can see door existed at one point. Shower was dirty and the thin glass sliding door so crusted it felt like I was going to shatter it when opening/closing.
Pillowcases were covered in hard wax stains that crinkled pillows. Have photos, but can’t upload in review.
Wall unit AC starts and stops loudly all night, smelled musty and hurt throat.
Room photos aren’t accurate as lamps are actually dangling over pillows with thin glass, there is also a plethora of glasses stacked loosely on top of microwave which is a few feet over your face while you sleep and is defacto bedside table, so if you want to reach for your water beware of oncking a balanced wine stem on your face….there was no other counter tops or places to moved the 8 cups.
Parking actually isn’t available at all onsite due to continued construction, across the street is only $1.50/hr. as stated by host, but only available for 4 hrs (digitally metered to license plate #). Third options is actually a 15 minute haul not “just a 5 minute walk” which I like walking but with luggage and a gallon of your own water is very far.
Blinds are falling apart, random stains all over walls, tv and Wi-Fi took hours of troubleshooting to turn on and then get volume off the maximum level….
Brought all of this up to host within 6 hours of check in and he denied even our request even for the next two nights fully refunded, and took full cleaning, service, taxes, etc. and we left as soon as sun came up after several hours of interrupted/bad sleep on top of the cheap and filthy covers.
Buildings pool is unusable as it had many large rust colored spots on bottom.
This place feels like an international youth hostel and nowhere near labeled appropriate ly, ESPECIALLY HOW IT SITE ON TOP OF A RAGING NIGHTCLUB. Unsure if previous reviewers notate that or if it just came back after most of Waikiki being shut for pandemic.
There is a plethora of actual 2 to 5 star hotels in the same price range in Waikiki.
