This hotel was located within distance of everything we needed. Shops, restaurants, beach & everything else in between. The cost was reasonable for such a great place. We stayed 2 nights on separate stays & both times the check in staff helped us with an early check in due to traveling with 2 kids under 5 & having arrived after a long flight. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone thinking of visiting Honolulu. The room had everything we needed as well. Will definitely be returning

Best possible location for families. Staff very helpful, room was clean and comfortable, also quiet. Best of all, a good safe beach for families is two blocks away. Special treat was their ongoing free weekday classes at 10am for kids to learn hula, lei-making, and ukulele. Denny’s restaurant with amazingly welcoming staff is right next door for easy meals with kids, and lots of upscale restaurants are in walking distance. ABC store next door with groceries and whatever you forgot to bring. Valet parking was a major convenience. We will use this hotel again.

This is an older hotel but a hidden gem—primarily a time share they offer apartment size rooms at modest Hawaiian prices—1 block to Waikiki Beach—this is our second time here—we have had a kitchenette to make our own light meals and morning coffee-they provide beach towels and we had a room safe—close to all shopping and restaurants

The staff was great. However, the room was a lot smaller than the pictures make it seem. The property was very clean but very very old and outdated. The shower drain didn’t work properly and there were areas that had patch as well as black sports around shower door. Valet was quick, staff were great, super friendly, and helpful. If I needed to stay again for quick convenience I would. I would not go back to vacation.

I liked it being over a ABC store and next to Denny's. 10 years ago on an exchange I had a beautiful room. Interval said no exchange so ended up with a room with a Murphy bed and couldn't open the bathroom door all the way
