I stayed here for 3 night for a business trip. I could not have asked for a better hotel. The location was perfect. It is directly in front of The International Marketplace which has a bunch of shops (you must check out CocoNene!!) and restaurants including some food stands towards the front of the building where you can Greek, BBQ, Tacos and Burgers to name a little. The hotel has a large pool and bar on the 3rd floor. The rooms were spacious and the bed was extremely comfortable. There is a restaurant that serves a good breakfast at a reasonable (for Hawaii) price as well as a place to get lite fare and bites to eat in their convenience-type store. Once here you MUST. Heck out Paia Fish Market and The Donut King which are right by the hotel. Mmmmmm! You are less than 2 blocks to the beach with direct access and Diamond Head is not far. If you’re looking for a good all around hotel in the middle of it all, you can’t beat this gem!

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. I was surprised by how affordable it was. I was in the king room and requested a quiet room, so it faced the interior of the block. Consequently, there wasn't much of a view, but I was hardly in the room, and quiet is more important to me than what's outside the window. And the room was very quiet. The mattress was comfortable, but the pillows were the ones that squish down flat, so keep that in mind if you're a side sleeper. There was a balcony, and I brought my own breakfast items from the Target across the street, so I had breakfast out there each day. The bathroom was a shower set-up, rather than a tub, and the sink was outside the bathroom. I did wish there was some kind of rack over the toilet because there was nowhere except the floor to put your pajamas or clothes for when you get out of the shower. The room had a clock and a refrigerator, which I used, and a microwave, which I didn't. There's a small armoire to hang your clothes if needed, but no dresser or closet. The room is on the small side, so if you're going to book the king room for 2 people and have 2 suitcases, keep in mind that you're going to be climbing over your bags. I found the staff to be pleasant and helpful. I didn't use the pool or restaurant, but I saw people in both. There's also a convenience store in the lobby. It has some limited meal items for sale, as well as breakfast items like bagels and pastries. It also has some souvenirs and a bunch of sundries, like toiletries and packaged food items (chips, triscuits, granola bars, cookies, crackers, peanut butter, bread, etc.). The hotel's location is very convenient. There's a good-sized Target directly across the street, as well as a shopping mall that has a variety of stores and a food court. One block away is a grocery store. ABC stores are everywhere (these are basically a "five and dime" type store that sell a combination of budget souvenirs and necessities, plus snacks and a small refrigerated section with items you might find at a 7/11 or Wawa). A number of public transit buses stop right across the street from the hotel, and the area is very walkable. It's a beautiful area and also felt very safe.

I tmok a morning class at the hotel. It was very nice amd fun because ker class was not so hard not so easy but really a yoga class.

I completed a morning yoga class with Phoenix which I highly recommend for anyone that wants to get their body active in the morning. Phoenix has a campy voice with daily affirmations throughout class. If you have time join a morning class on level 3

it was just at the hotel so location wise very convenient. Amazing exercise to start the day, my body felt lighter after the workout. Phoenix is very friendly and helpful
