The host was fine as far as being a nice person, attentive and answering questions throughout the whole experience unfortunately, the property both the unit and the grounds were in quite disarray. The windows didn’t open. The freezer door didn’t close so everything melted the they were missing lightbulbs The microwave did not work as well. It was very wonky. You needed to close it and open it close it and open it quite a few different times to make it stay to make it work. This was disappointing as well. There were also drawers under the bed, but turns out they weren’t for the tenants so there was limited space for us to put our own belongings. Unfortunately there were chairs to use at the beach, which was fantastic, but they were old, rusty, dirty, and filthy so that was a disappointment to us as well it was very dusty all over the place. Additionally, we were given the wrong Internet code or Wi-Fi, but that ended up being corrected quite quickly as the note was different than the email that was sent so that’s all its own problem, but however, we were also given the wrong code to the pool, which ended up being a good thing as The property was quite filthy. The pool was dirty. The chairs were filthy. It didn’t look like they’ve been cleaned at all the staff at the front desk were different people every single time every day and they were very unhelpful. Each one of them were very unhelpful to questions that we asked. The one good thing is the location was good.

The room and communication with host were very good. But, I did not see anywhere in the listing to expect loud, startling, bass beat in your chest noises all night long. This place would be ideal for a young couple looking for an all night party. I actually had to find other accommodations as it was so intolerable.

Location is so convenient to the beach! BUT like the other reviews it is on the same side as the bar, two floors up. If the windows are open you can hear the conversations of the patrons on the bar patio. Also, pictures are quite misleading. The place is tiny and the furnishings are super dated. It was a blast to the 80s! There is zero counter space in the bathroom. One of the main window panels is broken and there is hardly any air flow in the unit, even with the patio door open (if you want to fall asleep to loud music until 2 am). The unit comes with several fans and an air conditioning unit that blows directly into the bedside table. The pool at the place is right next to a construction zone, has about 4 lounge chairs, is dirty, and doesn’t get much afternoon sun. All in all, we had a great trip visiting our college daughter and loved the proximity to the end of the strip. It was convenient to walk around Diamond Head every morning. However, for the price, we will not be booking again. So many cute studios and places that rent for the same price that have way more amenities and comfort.
AC that blows into a table.
Small TV with wires everywhere.
Broken window panels that won’t open.

Sehr schöne Wohnung, super gelegen am Diamond Head. Wohnung war sehr sauber und gepflegt, die Vermieterin hat super schnell und geantwortet und reagiert. Ein Kritikpunkt sind die Fenster, die sehr undicht sind, man hört jedes Wort, das auf der Straße gesprochen wird, als wäre es im Zimmer. Die Fenster sollten unbedingt mal neu werden. Ansonsten ist das ganze Haus sehr gepflegt und es herrscht eine absolut angenehme Atmosphäre dort.

Great location but very loud at all hours!

You can't beat this location with such easy access to the beach, restaurants, shops, and good coffee! However, this room is just above a bar restaurant that cranks music late into the night and just off of a very busy street where buses stop and release their airbrakes. There was also a parking lot just across from the room that motorcycles used to hangout and see how loud the could get their exhausts to sound. If you are a light sleeper, this is not the place for you.

GREAT STAY

Enjoyed my stay very much. It was close to the venue where my conference was, and had everything I needed. I could hear the music from the night club 2 floors down, but not enough to cause loss of sleep, etc. I had a very minor issue with the TV, but the owner was on it immediately, and it was resolved. I would definitely return.

Beautiful view from balcony

This room has a beautiful view of the zoo and ocean from the balcony. It is a small room but very clean and has a small kitchen and fridge. The location is perfect. Shopping and restaurants are all in walking distance. You can hear the sound of the bar in the building at night but I was so tired that I fell asleep in no time. The sound of the cars and trucks woke me up in the morning just when I wanted to get moving for the day. Overall my friend and I loved the place and would definitely comeback next visit.

We have stayed at the Grand Waikīkī 2 years ago and love the cleanliness of the building and the great location. The only problem for us was the street noise and the loud music from the bar on the 2nd floor.

Accommodations

Overall, it was nice to have beach chairs, a cooler, the kitchenette ready to go as needed. Saved us money to have coffee in the room and be able to have breakfast and light snacks. Everything was very nice and clean. Our only complaint was how loud it was at night. The windows are not sealed. They are slats like plantation shutters and all the loud cars, trucks, sirens can be heard. I had to wear ear plugs. Other than that the location was great for the price.

Great location with the exception of bus traffic early in the mornings and fumes. Loud music played from the bar 2 levels below us until 1am every morning. Could not close the vintage crank windows. But otherwise it was quite charming with all the amenities you would need for a few days in town.

Great Economy Stay

This place is an excellent stay for the money. Yes, the night club plays music until late and one night it was extremely loud until after 1 am. Just run the AC to drown it out and the location can be loud with street noise but you are so close to beach and great eats. Super clean, so for the cost, it’s well worth it!

Nice quarters!

This was advertised correctly. The reviews are also in line with our stay. The property is located at the end of Waikiki and by the zoo. Long walks to our favorite places but so enjoyable to people watch. The one complaint is the noise from the restaurant located on the second floor. If we didn’t have air conditioning to help drown out the noise it would have been hard to sleep.
