We experienced a very comfortable stay with a spacious and clean room that had a small fridge and a coffee pot plus a couch. Being able to brew ourselves coffee each morning was a huge treat for us. We utilized the balcony to dry off wet bathing suits and water shoes which was very convenient. The lobby was nice and on our last evening we ate our dinner in the lobby and played games with our son whom we were visiting. I filled my water bottle each day with ice and water from the dispensers available in the lobby. We also enjoyed being able to read the daily newspaper. We didn't use the pool but it was nice to have it available. The staff was great and displayed Aloha each day. The hotel is wonderfully located in Waikiki. I would definitely stay here again and recommend to others. We reserved our stay using an offer of staying 3 nights and getting the 4th night free. We stayed a total of 8 nights and the hotel allowed us to reserve back to back reservations using this offer.
Not worth the money.

This hotel had a lot of problems. Very very noise inside, in the lobby, and outside due to very high street noise. Our room was small, with the softest most uncomfortable bed possible. Window cranks and curtains did work well- a good breeze was needed instead of the useless air conditioner. There were no chairs in this room and we had to make a special request to get one. And when you want to get a beach towel, don't forget your special card- otherwise it will cost you $30~ wow! TV and wi-fi coverage was a joke. This was a big hotel, needing two elevators for the population. Unfortunately one did not work the whole time we were there. This is an expensive hotel due to the service fee which covers a lot of "convenience features". Not really. Save your money and try a different place.
Greatest of Waikiki

I love everything about the hotel & we coming back again. The room was too perfect and close to the beach & stores. Workers were too kind and always there when needed for service. I recommended this hotel to everyone.
Waikiki’s cheapest, but not worth it.

Fantastic staff to keep this dump running despite the owners neglecting it for decades. Changed rooms, but still in a slum lord condition. It is CLEAN and one of the cheapest in Waikiki, but if you can, stay elsewhere. Resort fee steep and unearned. Sad, because 20 years ago we loved this place. I believe furniture is the same from those days still. ??
