My husband, sister-in-law & myself stayed at surfjack for 6 nights. The staff at the front desk were amazing so friendly & helpful. The bar staff were also lovely.The rooms were clean & the beds were comfortable. As our flight was a late one they gave us a complimentary room to use. Loved the pool area. I would recommend this hotel to all my friend.

Micki S (Miami Beach, Florida) 09/18/2019

Haven't stayed here for two years and once again, this place seriously ROCKS. Stayed three nights on the front and back end of a week trip I love this spot from the moment I get here, the front desk is one of the most friendly I've dealt with, the pool is front and center, Mahina & Sons is delicious, the free coffee is nice, the free bikes are great, got an upgrade to a 1 bedroom which I loved. The overall laidback surfer style and the great event programming seals the deal. It's not right on the beach, but who cares, it's a few blocks away! I mean, I loved my room so much the first trip they put me in the exact same room on my request for my second stay... that's customer service.

Sara S (Penryn, California) 09/18/2019

Didn’t stay here but ate dinner here twice. The food is very good. The service is very good too. Will definitely be back. Live daily music and such a cool vibe. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

carlcraft (Stockholm, Sweden) 09/16/2019

We stayed here for one week in September 18 and had a great stay. This is a modern place with great standard for the price in Waikiki (everything is expensive). Very nice staff and it feels very Hawaiian. Clean fun rooms with some elements of surfing. A smaller pool that we didn't use we always went to the beach that is just a short walk from the Hotel. Close to busses if you want to move around. Very close to shopping and restaurants. Remember that you will have to pay a tax when you check-out on all hotels around. This Hotel also had great live music almost every day, great food and drinks (also expensive) but again, everything is in Hawaii.

melrt 09/10/2019

The Surfjack Hotel & Swim Club was the perfect escape for a much needed vacation! If you want a more laid back vibe and friendly atmosphere, this is the place. The staff are some of the best I have seen in their business. They make you feel like family as soon as you check in to the time you regretfully have to check out. With added perks of free coffee, sunscreen, beach bags to use during your stay and wonderful music by the pool each night, we couldn't have asked for a better time. The bed was so comfortable and the rooms were kept very clean. The restaurant food was very good. In fact, we ate there a couple of nights during our stay to enjoy the wonderful musicians. We are already looking forward to going back! Mahalo to all of the Surfjack Staff!

Josie999999 (Vallejo, California) 09/21/2019

Excellent. Love the garden entertainment at night, music & hula dancers and some free fresh leis and I am one of the lucky ladies that got one. Room is very excellent. What we had is a condo room and has all we need including kitchen electrical stuffs for preparing our food & coffee. Love the Veranda where I can meditate over looking the blue waters of Hawaii. Love ❤️

ProblemPage (Fordingbridge, United Kingdom) 09/13/2019

We stayed at apt #2023. The block has maybe 1000+ units (huge!) and as fifty years old this year, I am assuming not every apartment is the same level of refurbishment nor appoitment. The reference to building amenities will be common. Recommended for long or short stay. Very comfortable, excellent base. Nicely appointed apartment in huge apartment block. Pretty well everything you need is at this apartment which has been refurbished since the block itself is 50 years old. Despite this there is no signs of its antiquity! Plenty of coffee and cleaning materials etc. Beers in fridge. Decent wi-fi. Aircon works well. Lots of elevators. Shops within complex open late. Self check in works very well but you must follow email instruction as the resort itself will cannot help if you are not prepared (if arranged via the owner rather than resort). Attractive pool(s) ith towels provided. Friendly pool staff. Easy to get to the apartment from airport - we used ride hailing app. Very little not to like. The apartment, unlike some in the block, looks out to the street not to the ocean but I don't think it was stated otherwise in the blurb via agency we used

Natalie S 09/06/2019

What can I say about the Ilakai... we loved it! the staff was wonderful, we enjoyed Cinnamon's for breakfast every morning. The room was lovely, the bed... it was not comfortable, but honestly most hotel beds are not for me (bad back). We would definitely come back. The beaches are within walking distance. We especially loved the Ala Moana beach/park it was not crowded. The buses and shuttles are super close by.

Vanessa H 09/06/2019

Thoroughly enjoyed our time at the Ilikai in Apt 1923. A beautiful condo with a city view and all of the things we needed. Good standard accomodation if you’re just needing a place to lay your head at night.

Heidifunk (Danville, California) 09/03/2019

Beware of staying at this property. I experienced bed bugs here. I captured a live bed bug in a solo cup and took it to the front desk. There was no manager on site so they brought down the housekeeping manager to speak with me. She confirmed it was a bed bug but did nothing about it. She questioned why I was bringing it to her attention on my check out date. I explained that was the first time I saw one. She basically accused me of “planting” the bed bug. As if I have the resources or desire to do something like that. I was treated with total disrespect. I had to catch my flight home so I didn’t have time to inspect my luggage or belongings before packing. It was a total inconvenience for me upon returning home to have to leave my luggage and content in my backyard until I had time to thoroughly inspect every item for bed bugs. Bringing these critters home could be disaster. They can live up to a year without feeding and it takes 122 degrees to kill them. I will NEVER stay at this hotel again. The property is 50 years old, dirty, and in need of a total face lift. The only positive was the valet staff were all very friendly, fast and efficient with my car every day.

happyruke 09/19/2019

The hotel was clean and the room was spacious and comfortable. The pool and jacuzzi were also pleasant. The bus and trolley platform was close and convenient. I want to use it again when traveling with my family.

bkl58 (Cumming, Georgia) 09/10/2019

I had been scouting hotels on Oahu for several months before we booked. Places like the Hilton which I’m a loyalty member we’re just massive. Found the Tower with lots of great reviews and decided on it. The place is not inexpensive paying over $800 a night for a 2 bedroom on the 33rd floor. But was traveling with family and there are not many options for two bedrooms on or near the waterfront. Technically the Tower is not on the water but you are just steps to the beach across the road that is in front of the hotel. The staff was incredibly friendly from the front desk to the maintenance staff. Spent one week there and it was truly a great place to stay. Lots restaurants and shops within walking distance. The area is quite busy kind of like the Vegas strip without casinos. We had a full kitchen nicely equipped and actually had a good set of chefs knives. Our unit had a great soaking tub that was enjoyed each night after walks. Only disappointment was the number of homeless in the area that would cause some havoc from time to time. Last day there a couple of homeless got into a fight and one had to go to the hospital all occurred right in front of hundreds of tourists. Overall a great experience and would recommend if you can afford it.

masahikomurakami 09/07/2019

I was able to spend it comfortably.Thank you for upgrading and for arranging your rental car. The location was good and very satisfying.Just one point,Housekeeping is coming too early. I'll definitely come back next year.

llhaynes 09/03/2019

Great place to stay! Very clean and the staff was extremely courteous and helpful! Great location, excellent service and very good ammenities. I would definitely stay here again! Oh, we had an oceanview room, but it was beyond my expections! The view was awesome!

Elizabeth L (South Wales, United Kingdom) 09/03/2019

Stayed a full week with my mom, grandmother, and aunt the beginning of August 2019. WOW!!!! We had a lovely, spacious 2 bedroom suite with fully equipped kitchen, 2 full bathrooms, laundry facilities, living room/dining room, and a a beautiful patio/lanai area looking out onto the beach. The location cannot be beat! We were directly across the street from Waikiki beach; and we were within easy distance to many shops and restaurants. All of the staff members here were phenomenal! Any request or question we had was handled professionally and efficiently. The customer service was amazing! Everyone on site was so kind and helpful. The valet service was always very quick and friendly. And they offer nightly turn down service! I would highly recommend this hotel...waking up to the sound of the waves and beautiful sunrise each morning was refreshing for my soul!

Mary718718 (Blandon, Pennsylvania) 09/18/2019

The one bedroom unit on the 36th that we had was a little rundown, but clean enough. Faced the windward side of the island making for some gorgeous sunrises. Comfortable bed. Spent a lot of time on the lanai. Figuring out parking is a bit challenging and some of the staff couldn’t be less helpful. Two VERY long blocks from the beach.

jdcampbell30 09/16/2019

If I could give a minus for this hotel I would! From the moment we arrived it was terrible! We called in the morning to ask about checking in a little early as we had a tour at 4pm - we arrived at 2.30pm, finally at 3.30pm we were given a key to use the pool showers - key didn’t work! When we did get to our floor we realised we had been booked into a floor with extensive water damage to the point that the drying equipment was still there, there were no skirting boards, we had mould in our room, the bathroom floor was gurgling with water, the sheets had holes & marks on them & it was generally dirty! Staff were not helpful but after quite a discussion we were “upgraded” to a high less wet slightly less dirty room! The smoke alarms had no batteries in them & the elevators made terrible banging noises! The smell of the place was mould scent! I would never stay here again!

Teachingmom1 09/11/2019

The place is fine. Old and holes in most of the furniture. But, watch out for the staff! They barely tolerate you there. From not being allowed to stop on a floor because a staff member won't let you to hearing the parking attendant scream at people who don't speak English. Also, the power went out twice and they finally changed our room.

Yvonne393 (Geraldine, New Zealand) 09/03/2019

Fire alarms went off and they had no idea what the problem was. Nobody checked even tho they said they thought they could smell smoke but couldn't find anything. We were on the top floor which was 37th. When I went down the stairs it was a joke. If it had been a real emergency it would of been disasterous. Cords etc running down the stairs and across to the rooms. They did not seem to have any plans in place for any emergency and were more concerned with checking people in and out. Would definitely not stay here again

echo1064 (Sydney, Australia) 08/30/2019

3 of us are staying at the Aston Waikiki sunset and even though its 2 short blocks from the beach the hotel itself is tired and could do with a refurb. For the cost of AUD $2,000 for 4 nights for 3 people in a holiday destination I suppose that's the going rate for a 2 bedroom room. The rooms are clean but dated. The furniture could do with replacing but the view is pretty nice. The travel agent recommended it so I can't complain too much.

patoot69 (Sidney, Canada) 08/06/2019

We recently stayed at the Aqua Bamboo for 4 nights in suite 807. We loved the fact that there was a kitchen (eat in if you like) a beautiful pool and the location can't be beat. It is about 1 1/2 blocks from the beach, near Honolulu Zoo, the bus route and lots of great restaurants. The hotel also offers beach towels and chairs. I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Extraordinary827904 07/20/2019

We stayed for 8 days. The rooms were neat. Our first room was good size but opened up to the broncs neighbours. Moved up to high floor on opposite side of building which was smaller room but heaps better view and less racket. Rooms are quite when doors closed but the air conditioner was old and very noisy. Noisy with street traffic if doors open. Location was okay.

premkala16 (Medford, Oregon) 07/13/2019

We booked this hotel through an Air BnB because the pictures of the pool were so inviting and the location to Waikiki Beach. Unfortunately the pool was closed for refurbishing when we went but we did sneak a peek and it is a beautiful setting. The rooms and the hotel interior is very dated, like many of the hotels in Waikiki. The rooms, elevator and lobby are small. Many of the rooms look out onto the busy street or an alley with a brick wall. Ask for a pool view. Location is fantastic for quick and easy access to the bus ( right outside the door) or the beach ( a very easy 5 minute walk). You are about a block and 1/2 from the international market which is pricey but a nice place to walk around. There is a car rental agency within a 3 minute walk of the hotel but no parking on site. We realized that parking for rental cars is almost more than the daily rental. Often 20 to 30 dollars for over night. close Restaurants are mostly local Hawaiian plate or asian food. Burger King and McDonalds are a few minutes walk away for those who want a quick cheap meal. This hotel is for the budget minded who want a nice pool retreat when not at the beach.

C3495ZTmarias 07/09/2019

Priced well, great location. The parking filled up and we had to park next door. Not super inconvenient but a bit of a drag with luggage. Stayed for 4 nights and only had room cleaned once. They didnt give us fresh towels or replenish toiletries. Just made the bed and took out trash. No breakfast, the pool was under construction while I was there, not enough washers and dryers, also the washers and dryers are old and coin operated ones and I'm not sure how "clean" they really made my clothes. All in all it's a great spot for the price in the center of Waikiki/Honolulu. I was comfortable in my room and enjoyed my stay. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Keeping in mind this is by no means a 5 star hotel I would still recommend it as a place to stay if you want to be close to Waikiki beach. A few suggestions I have are updating the air conditioning to central air or something, the overall smell of the building was musty and they try off setting it with ALOT of what smells like off brand fabreez but that's just in the lobby area and elevators not I the actual rooms.

anul644 (Kangasala, Finland) 07/02/2019

Place is nice, but the staff never smiled. Few times I got smile from younger boy. The man who took care of the yard was very nice and polite. Even if you did not need any cleaning in your room, they make sure that you pay anyway the cleaning.

marinexbiologist (Port Charlotte, Florida) 08/31/2019

The Aqua Aloha Surf Waikiki Hotel is perfectly located near the Royal Hawaiian Center and Waikiki Beach. I recommend asking for a high-up room that overlooks the canal because it is a gorgeous view. The hotel has a pool and underground parking available for guests. The rooms are in good condition and we greatly enjoyed our patio with chairs to sit in. I would definitely stay here if I were in Waikiki again.

KyleeSunshineCoast (Sunshine Coast, Australia) 07/30/2019

The Hotel was good and close to everything awesome little coffee shop in the lobby which we loved! But the staff in the hotel (There was one nice lady) were so grumpy especially the older man in the restaurant he was terrible, it was so unbelievably we nearly laughed, it’s ashame the staff bring down this place

Ben N 07/29/2019

Sometimes something is so bad that it makes it comically good, thats almost the case here and then you realise that you did actually pay money to stay here so its not that funny. On the positives - it is relatively cheap for the area, it is located close to the beach and the room did have a bed in it. Thats about when the good parts of the experience end - I cant speak for all the check in staff (so there might be some good ones), the one we had was just particularly surly (always a top trait for someone that works in hospitality), there is the $25 a day resort /amentie fee which is of course a joke as you have no option to pay it (just include it in the room price ffs) but this is a standard gouging across Hawaii so I wont blame this hotel specifically for that, however where it does get amazing is when you do look at the amenities - the gym aka "Exercise Area" which is a single broken wieder multi gym sitting outside the lobby, Im not sure if you could legally describe it as something safe to exercise on, Ive added a photo as I found it particularly amusing - note the fact that if you did roll the dice and actualy use that machine it is located almost in the lobby and next to the vending machines adding to the special ambiance they have created. The rooms have a bed, TV and bathroom in them, we were concerned the bathroom door was going to fall to pieces in our hands every time we touched it but it did manage to survive our stay (win!), the use of PS3s as inroom DVD players is an interesting one I guess you could look at that as a positive. The air conditioner definitely worked you had a choice of either OFF or MEAT LOCKER COLD, we chose to dance between the two settings throughout the evening to keep things interesting. A few reviews have mentioned the breakfast and they are reasonably spot on, the angry greeting by the woman cooking pancakes is a bit of a low light but then the pancakes themselves are somewhat of a highlight of the whole hotel experience so its a real roller coaster of emotions throughout breakfast. It is served in an Asian buffet restaurant complete with large fishtank and ornate oval tables which does make for an interesting touch. If you are looking for a cheap hotel close to the beach and can overlook getting any sort of pleasure out of the hotel you are staying at on holiday then this is a fabulous choice, if not perhaps spend a few more dollars and keep hunting around

Chale14197 (Menifee) 05/07/2019

We stayed here through VRBO and the Ali'i beach rentals. The property is a bit dated, but pretty nice overall. The staff, however, is what I'd call apathetic and unfriendly. They are often also unavailable. They have a hotel where they have regular guests, Airbnb, and VRBO all staying under one roof. They freely admit they treat their guests differently than the VRBO or Airbnb. Understand you only need staff for onsite issues like parking and use of facilities. Seems easy right? These guys sold our parking space while we were still parked in it! They couldn't tell my wife where the swap meet is? You live here, right? They refused us pool towels causing a trip all the way back to the 16th floor? Like we wouldn't bring them back. Worse than all of that, they are flat out rude. Their apathy is obvious and they are unapologetic about it saying we are here staying with their competitors? Just wow. If they had treated us equal they may have gotten good reviews. Heck, I may have considered them as an option next time I come here, but after this experience I never would. Ali'I beach rentals are thoughtful and listen to their guests. I'd use them again just never to stay here!

LTibbs3 (Auburn, Washington) 05/06/2019

We stayed at the Aqua Aloha Surf Waikiki on our recent vacation in Honolulu. It wasn’t a pleasant experience. During our first night our air conditioner put out a horrible moldy smell all night. We complained and were moved to another room. All the rooms are very cramped and old looking. The breakfast buffet provided isn’t very good. The person running the buffet each morning is grouchy with guests and rude. My wife complained to the hotel of the way she was treated by this person. She was told that it was t run “officially” by the hotel, but was contracted. No excuse! I wouldn’t recommend this hotel.

J7597FPangelap (Brisbane, Australia) 09/11/2019

Nice hotel. It is in a good location. Walk to beach. Opposite the Hilton so can walk over the road to all their shops. They have a free shuttle bus to the shops and town. The rooms are ok nothing flash but has everything you need. Fridge is cold. Staff were good and helpful. Would stay here again.

MichaelShainsky (12345) 08/25/2019

This hotel has a great value for Waikiki and for being right accross the street from Hilton Hawaiian Village and its wonderful beach. Erik Scruton, reservations supervisor was really outstanding in making my stay comfortable and inexpensive! Thank you, Erik, VERY MUCH!!!

NYCBnB 08/22/2019

I booked a room here with my husband and our 8.5 month old daughter, for a romantic getaway. My husband got drunk and couldn't find our room. The woman at reservations, Melony [-], who even took the information for our room, instead offered him a place to sleep on her couch. Really, Melony could’ve given my now ex-husband a key to our room or told him where his room was; but, I guess this hotel does not have a professional standard for not fraternizing with guests, particularly those whose spouses and children are upstairs. I guess if you're looking for free service in Honolulu, this hotel’s staff provides.

Global727586 08/21/2019

It’s my second visit at the hotel. I find it to be pleasant near shopping,restaurants and a short beach walk. Rooms clean The parking is kinda of cramp The pool is small,for us anyway 4-5 people and that’s it full But honestly for For a family with a budget it’s ok Can’t go wrong

Sharmila P (Wellington) 08/12/2019

Loved our stay in Hawaii. It was so central to big malls, beach, shops, eateries, cultural centre, activities. Hospitality comes to mind; like one big family. Fresh fruit available at reception, with water and hot drinks. We took a few trips in our short stay. The Chiefs Luau was spectacular. Buffet with island specialty in its true island style outdoors in the evening. This was held at Wet n Wild location. We were bused to this location; great way to see the rest of Oahu with commentaries all the way. On arrival, we received cocktail and got to try out making headbands from coconut frond, fresh coconut tasting and other activities.We were greeted with Hawaiian leis which we were able to take away as souvenirs. The performances followed the buffet. So amasing with all the different islands doing their traditional performances and relating their ancestral stories. The world champion fire dancers lining up the waterfall was truly spectacular. So memorable. We also took a sunset cruise. Another great evening with amasing buffet, cocktails and the amasing performances; truly hawaiian hula! Wow; unforgettable time in Hawaii......

Amy R 09/15/2019

The place doesn't look like the pictures and it should be listed as a motel. Parking is $47 which is outrageous. I was unwell and needed a bed ASAP, so I was willing to pay. I'd say if you're not driving and it's four to a room (there are two beds) this might be ok. The women at the front are very nice. I guess it's a 'know before you go' type of thing.

NateaBar (Honolulu, Hawaii) 09/12/2019

Stayed one week in this hotel because it was centrally located, away from the crowds of Waikiki, close to Ala Moana Shopping Center, Walmart and Ross. Not disappointed with the location - easy to find restaurants and places to eat and to shop at. However, the hotel needs renovating and is showing its age. Room air conditioner was loud and there were black stains on the ceiling above it! We might have been breathing that soot or mold everyday. Minimum of toiletries in bathroom: small soap bar for sink use and for taking a bath. Hotel staff friendly and helpful. We were given a video card to see free movies in the room, but after getting a disc, could not figure out how to use video machine. Minimum of on-site parking stalls. Most are located in the parking shared with the Ross store across the street and this entails an addiitional cost, paid at the hotel. Beds are comfortable. Maid service is adequate.

e M 09/02/2019

They charge a deposit of $165 and they don't tell you about it. It's like a surprise and it's too late when you notice it. I'm a local guy here and I feel that's a huge amount for just a overnight stay.

michaelmD744RU (Lihue) 08/14/2019

The Pagoda hotel, ball room, restaurant and "carp", is a part of our island history. For many locals, it represented a special night when staying there or attending a family or social event. Today, it still draws many neighbor islanders and travelers who are looking for a reasonable priced not "Waikiki" hotel without high material expectations. What wins you over is the staff who goes out of their way to greet, assist, make you feel appreciated and a part of their family. Debbie Arakaki is one of those special down to earth and positive people who always greets you with a smile and acts in your best interest. The Pagoda Hotel should be very proud to have Debbie on their team!

DanaLosAngeles (Los Angeles, California) 07/17/2019

Locals do favor this budget hotel as the prices are low and the location is central. The rooms and service leave much to be desired. Deferred maintenance can be seen in the rooms and bathroom, and the front desk service was perhaps the worst I have experienced in a long time, Friendly, but one person for many people resulted in an hour long wait for a key.

Inspire595531 09/18/2019

The friendliness of the staff was top notch, front desk was very welcoming, housekeeping was super lenient and nice. The rooms were definitely a 2 star hotel. Very basic, stained walls, stained carpet, wall paper coming off. When we walked through the halls, I would see cockroaches scurrying up the walls. Bathroom was an standing shower that was poorly maintained. But I figured, who needs a nice hotel when it’s super cheap, as long as there’s a bed and AC we’ll be okay. Wrong. They’re AC unit is old and poorly maintained. Even on High, it did not cool down the room. The vent was dusty and rusted. Like my title says, you’re definitely getting what you’re paying for. Cheap price, cheap hotel. Other than the cleanliness, staff was on point and always willing to help us out or answer our questions.

PeachieDV 09/17/2019

1) Their "Going Green" incentive should be either $5 off the total bill and not just $5 discount at the Lava Restaurant. I am a very green traveler and it just irked me that because I am vegan, I was not able to really experience the green incentive the hotel was trying to provide. There was not even one Vegan option in the resto. 2) My problem the whole time was the aircon. Hawaii was very hot for me during my trip there, and when the electrician came in, he apologized because he said it's not a localized thing, the whole centralized thing is faulty. He said that they have been getting a lot of complaints and it turns out there is no improvement nor even cleaning made on the AC system, still!. I think I believe him! I took pictures of the vents of my room's AC and it was super filthy. It's a risk esp. to those with respiratory problems and I have bronchial asthma. The electrician was courteous enough and he offered me an electric fan. He said he will advise the front desk but alas, no one called me. I did not make an effort anymore because first, it was centralized; so no matter what room I switch into it's futile. Also, I already settled in and having a bad case of jetlag/cabin fever I did not want to go to the motions already. The 3 days, 2 nights I was there I felt like being broiled slowly into my death. 3) The exhaust in the bathroom, I do not know if it's working, but like the water sprinkler in the room, it's rotting. There was a lime green scale thing growing out of the fixtures. I took a picture of them too for my reviews. I feel they just renovated the lobby and pool but with the other essentials in the rooms, they have forgotten about it. Perhaps it was just a facade. On some good points I commended on their survey 3 awesome staff members. Also laud their 7 layer filtration system fountain since I get to refill my tumbler all the time. Plus, it is mindful of travelers' water needs. This is an eco-conscious move for them.

Esmeralda M (San Diego, California, USA) 09/11/2019

Great location a few blocks from beach & central to Waikiki. Reasonable price for quality of room. Could use upgrades in bathroom and flooring in room. Pool was small but refreshing. Enjoyed cocktails and meals next door at Lava Tube.

Companion21681552250 09/10/2019

Great affordable property. Rooms are compact but good enough for 2 people comfortably. Loved the kitchenette. Parking just too small for even a mid size car, steep awkward driveway that wasn’t to safe to come out of.

csuda39 09/09/2019

We had coffee the first day but we drank it and she never left us another bag of coffee the next day and all she did was fold the blankets and she never emptied our trash cans and she never left us any shampoo and soap so we had to go and buy some.

It was a total inconvenience for me upon returning home to have to leave my luggage and content in my backyard until I had time to thoroughly inspect every item for bed bugs. Bringing these critters home could be disaster. They can live up to a year without feeding and it takes 122 degrees to kill them. I will NEVER stay at this hotel again. The property is 50 years old, dirty, and in need of a total face lift. The only positive was the valet staff were all very friendly, fast and efficient with my car every day.

Very unique metro hotel experience literally 500 feet from Waikiki Beach. Gorgeous views, great location within walking distance of some of the best restaurants and shopping in Honolulu/Waikiki. Room was comfy, a bit small and very slightly worn, but all in all a very good value.

ccmom7781 (Florida) 08/28/2019

A very unique hotel as it is a circle. The check in and concierge area are open air. The rooms were very nice and clean. The beach is just across the street. All rooms have a patio and the view is awesome. Mahalo!

SuzyQIllinois (Illinois) 08/27/2019

This hotel’s staff are very friendly and helpful! We were in Room 1202 which is an ocean view room and the view was beautiful! No pool but with ocean few feet away, who needs a pool! The hotel is located in a very pretty area with restaurants nearby. I would suggest getting a 8th floor or higher room due to traffic sounds etc.

130Doug (Kennett Square, Pennsylvania) 08/22/2019

This place took us by surprise, I have to admit. We’d reserved a “partial” ocean view room, but when we arrived, we were immediately asked if we’d like to upgrade to a “full” ocean view room! Of course we accepted, and the next 3 nights were spent in great comfort. The balconies are great, but watch your trunks! One dude’s pair flew off and wound up on the roof of the adjoining restaurant. My only complaint is that the doors slamming tend to echo throughout the entire floor. If you’re a light sleeper such as I, this might be a problem, but even I’ll admit it wasn’t THAT bad, and it only happened one night....at 3am. Next door is a GREAT restaurant called Eggs ‘n Things that gives a 10% (15%?) discount to hotel patrons who show their key card.

HunterN24 (Gold Coast, Australia) 08/16/2019

Being one of the first hotels on Waikiki Beach it is showing its age, but still a nice place to stay, you are only in there for a short time, to sleep. Very handy , right on Waikiki Beach, walk across the street and there is the famous beach.

dwkoch (Long Beach, California) 09/21/2019

This hotel, located in the core central office area, has all of the amenities you might expect from a Walmart adjacent facility - no gym, grim pool and no room service. On the positive side, the rooms are good size with a little kitchenette and it is close to the State Capital.

andrew_branham (Boise, Idaho) 08/15/2019

This place has a lot of potential. It’s in a decent location and the building has common areas that show its former class. But the hotel needs a complete remodel. When I saw the bathroom tub - I immediately thought of the Brady Bunch. The place is clean and comfortable. The beds and linens are nice and the views are great. But a small investment in updating this place would make a world of difference. It feels like a 1980s hotel inside and its 2019. Time for a much needed remodel for the price. I won’t return without a remodel.

kdooka (Wailuku, Hawaii) 08/09/2019

After staying here numerous times, i am so happy to say this was my best stay. I requested a room with double beds and happily the request was fulfilled. Upon arrival i was greeted with the reception knowing my name.. that was impressive. The room was beautifully decorated and updated to the nines! I hope i can get that room again! Thank you Aston Executive Center!

MV-Luv (Marion, CT) 07/13/2019

We stayed here due to its proximity to NCL Cruise pier. It is an urban hotel that is really a set of condos. Arriving at 9 pm there were already numerous homeless people on the street in close proximity to front entrance, which is an escalator. Our Uber driver told us not to walk around after dark. The woman at the front desk told us, yes, there were numerous homeless out there, but “if you leave them alone, they won’t bother you.” Not the Aloha welcome we were expecting. So the location, other than being close to pier, is really bad and should be avoided. To make bad matters even worse, the hotel is just a set of condos managed by a management company and is not managed well. I agree with other reviews that their employees don’t care because it’s not their property, a common issue with like properties. They know nothing of the rooms. We upgraded to a water view and I posted a photo of the view. Hardly any water and lots of industrial equipment. The rooms are suites, but there is no curtain on the French doors dividing the bedroom from the living space. So it cannot be used as a suite, as someone cannot sleep while your partner is watching TV or even reading in the living area. The room was sparse with nothing to sit on except a low quality pull out couch that slid when you sat on it. No rugs or carpet, our room looked more like a dressing room in Macy’s than a hotel room. The air travel above hotel is very loud and disturbing, and our room had a steady set of loud thumps that came on a regular basis, also very disturbing. As a added bonus, if you stay on the weekend, the restaurant is closed. Not even a coffee bar in the lobby with muffins. Nothing! Instead they give you a map to venture among the homeless outside to find a nearby Seven Eleven or Starbucks. The TV operation is also incomprehensible to operate with a explanatory card providing numerous sets of codes to just turn it on. It didn’t work the first five times we tried to turn it on. The simple on/off switch on the remote does not work normally. In short, I would avoid this “hotel” as it is not a hotel at all and is not safe at night. Need to take Uber to dock anyway do I would recommend staying at a real hotel in a safe area that has basic amenities that this place lacks.

guy d (Hamilton, NZ) 07/08/2019

We stayed here as it is closer to the airport than most hotels in Honolulu. Unfortunately we found that the rooms are run down. The walls in the rooms are in poor condition and the bathrooms are extremely dated. Our suite was very clean and the carpet had been shampoo'ed recently. A large bed as advertised. There are some good restaurants in the neighborhood (10 minute walk). The pool is very basic.

C137DVjeffm (Kihei, Hawaii) 09/22/2019

Stayed there for one night. It’s still under renovation so check-in is in a room on the first floor. The grounds are clean. Hallways are a bit dated and tired looking. But, the room was updated and comfortable. For the price, it was worth it. Rooms don’t have irons, ironing boards, hair dryers, etc. Think of it as a slight step up from a remodeled Motel 6.

kyongmi (Holyoke, Massachusetts) 09/12/2019

This is a great location with in walking distance to the beach and main spots on Waikiki beach. I was in Honolulu for 4 days 3 night and need something that was close to everything as I wanted to maximize my time there. the bus stop is very close to the hotel so getting to and from the airport was easy. I had a queen size room, it was clean and it was very specious, had a fridge, a microwave and a sink. They are currently going through the remodel so they didn't have a main lobby but that's not an issue. The staff was great, friendly and helpful. The pool area is nice and clean. I would definitely stay there again

949hardys (Sankt Margrethen, Sankt Gallen, Switzerland) 08/18/2019

The staff was very friendly and the room was clean. Good location - just a few minutes to the main spots at Waikiki beach. The pool was under renovation but the pool of the nearby sister hotel could be used.

470kristoffern 07/18/2019

We got a room last minute at this hotel after missing a connection. Upon arrival, we did have to use a secondary entry around the back due to renovations but, but the night porter made up for that quickly. We were offered a great room at a good rate. The bed was king size and very comfy. It had a good quiet air con and I slept like a clubbed baby seal. The next morning checkout was without fuzz and the bus to the airport is only minutes away by foot. Unfortunately we missed our flight as it was overbooked, but we returned to the hotel and we were greeted in a similar fashion. We even got our same room back! I’m an airline pilot so my hotel experience is great and varied, and I would 10/10 recommend this place for the budget conscious traveler with an affinity for proper rest!

Mandy T (Anglesea, Australia) 07/14/2019

This is a fantastic hotel. They are undergoing renovations at the moment, but most of the rooms are renovated and are beautiful. We were not affected by the renovation at all, and reception has been relocated, but it didn’t make any difference to our stay. Very good rates for a lovely hotel in the centre of Waikiki. Stay here for sure. Thanks to lovely Christianne (spelling?) who was wonderful and helpful during our stay.

karen o (Sittingbourne, United Kingdom) 08/22/2019

We are here at the moment in the middle of a 12 night stay. Our daughter us just beginning her study at University of Hawaii so have made this our holiday. Fantastically located in Waikiki, we are on 32nd floor with great views of the ocean and the mountains. The staff have been extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms are clean, functional and the beds comfy. Great pool area on the 6th floor with loads of loungers. It was a long journey from the UK but glad we are staying here as it is so close to everything. Beach is literally 2 minutes away. Definitely recommend.

voyagers51 (Ballarat, Australia) 08/12/2019

We were booked into this accommodation for 10 days by a very reputable travel company only to discover upon our arrival that there wasn’t any condominiums available! We weren’t given any explanation for this other than the front desk person telling us that they had “lost” some inventory. Asking why they didn’t contact me the reply was that they didn’t have our details. Why wouldn’t they have contacted the travel company to inform them of the conundrum? Very unsettling and disappointing to find out that you have to scramble to find accommodation elsewhere even though you have paid for it months in advance! After several phone calls to our travel consultant in Australia to inform her of our situation, we were eventually directed to a property for our stay some 3 hours later. No real concern was shown by the Manager but we were thankful that we had a great consultant back home that came to our aid.

329rebekahr (Sydney, Australia) 08/06/2019

I recently stayed at the Banyan in May 2019, we had a 1 bedroom condo with an ocean view on the 7th floor, the room was clean and comfortable with all the amenities including a washer dryer on each floor. Cant wait to get back in November 2019. Its close to everything Waikiki has to offer.

Michael K (Brisbane, Australia) 08/04/2019

We showed up at 9PM after a long day of travel with a small child, with a reservation that had been in place for months and a deposit paid, and were told there was no room for us! Due to an 'overbooking' our reservation had been switched, without any notice or consultation, to another hotel on the far other side of Waikiki. We had been in touch with the hotel as recently as five days before our arrival, and there had been no mention any problems. The staff people had no information about the alternate hotel or what kind of room we had. With no time to research alternatives, we had to schlep our stuff back outside and wait for another cab. The Banyan said they would pay for the cab (how generous!), but they underpaid the route, leaving us with an ugly situation with the driver on the other end. Now we're spending our vacation in a hotel we had no input in selecting, on the end of Waikiki we didn't want. (We had chosen the Banyan in part for its location near the zoo and its tennis court.) We've stayed at Aston properties literally a dozen or more times. Never again.

Freedom816789 (Idaho Falls, Idaho) 07/26/2019

Our room was old, outdated and uncomfortable! Nothing like the photos show. The only things they have going for them is location, price and the pool deck. We arrived at 2:56 and were told we had to wait until 3 to check in because our room wasn't ready, it took more than 4 minutes for the actual check in but whatever. Upon check out they tried to charge me for a roll away bed and when I said we didn't use one they made me wait for someone to physically check my room like I was lying! No ice machine but there is a bucket, the rental kiosk wouldn't let return my movies so here's hoping they don't charge me for those later because I had to return them at the desk and so far they proved to be pretty incompetent!

Clive B (Auckland, New Zealand) 09/13/2019

My wife and I recently stayed for 8 x nights at the Aqua Pacific Monarch. We are both retirees and so the location for us was perfect. 2 x minutes walk from Waikiki beach. Close walking distance to shops and restaurants. Good feature is the free use of beach towels and also beach chairs. Lovely roof top pool with great panoramic views. Great cleaning room service and friendly helpful desk staff. Only slight criticism is that the decor is a little "tired", but that does not detract to the overall good experience of staying here. Would recommend to potential travelers.

beachbunnypei (Charlottetown, Canada) 09/11/2019

I checked alot of reviews and was particular about where we were going to stay, Pacific Monarch had great review and it didnt disapoint. We were on 31st floor with great views of ocean and city. layout was great, bed in one end and dining in middle with living one on other end and a galley kitchen. I was wanting a balcony to sit on but our patio doors opened to a small skinny balcony with was even better as the doors opened about 10 feet bringing the outside in! Staff were great! Beach 4 minute walk, and the hotel has beach chairs, towels and mats, perfect! Location was the best (I am in the hotel busienss so I checked out other properties and can honestly say this was best for value - clean, location, excellent staff, I would stay again!

geeswayne (Mount Maunganui, New Zealand) 09/10/2019

We were on 22nd floor with great views all over Waikiki from our two balconys. Separate bedroom was nice and comfortable with lots of storage for clothes in drawers and a safe. There was a fully equipped kitchen with oven and microwave and a dining table and comfy couch as well as good outdoor furniture on the balcony. This was great for drying our wet swimming gear and towels. Not too far to walk to the beach and loved the little restaurants close by which were inexpensive.

Docelibra (Shanghai, China) 09/01/2019

The location is excellent - 4 minutes walk to Waikiki beach and surronded by numerous ABCS Stores, overall, not noisy but close enough to everything. Fabulous room view, we like the balcony a lot as we enjoy the wind from the ocean, but there is always a BBQ smoky smell coming from some restaurant nearby. Also the hotel provides beach towels which is quite good. It's a pity, however, that the hotel doesn't keep luggages overnight. So for those customers who will re-check in after travelling to other Hawaiian islands, they have to take all the luggages with them...

Chris66emma (Raymond Terrace, Australia) 08/28/2019

Love this place and staff so much (especially Danny) that we have returned 9 times in 9 years. Great location. All the staff are sensational from front desk staff, maintenance and cleaning staff. Treat you like family. Wouldn’t stay anywhere else. Just a few blocks from Waikiki beach and central to everything. Rooms are good and the kitchen facilities save you heaps on eating out all the time. Really recommend!

Kiwiintheus (Levin, New Zealand) 09/15/2019

I stayed for a week and appreciated the location, close to the beach and shopping. The room itself was average, the tile floors didn’t appear to get cleaned each day so were gritty underfoot, the shower was big but the shower hose was positioned so water went all over the floor and there wasn’t anywhere to put your products except balanced on the rails and no where for bar of soap.

kimevans69 (Beallsville, Ohio) 09/13/2019

We stayed 4 days at the Luana. Was going to give this hotel a solid 3 stars out of 5 but while waiting to be picked up by our transfer shuttle I decided I better use the restroom before getting on the shuttle. I was told that I must have a room key to use the restroom......this was 10 minutes after handing mine in. Due to poor customer service I can only give 2 stars. The pool closes at sunset!!! What hotel has these rules?? Had we known about this prior to booking we would have definitely passed. They also advertise that there is a bar, we never seen it open and the restaurant is only open for minimal hours in the morning. Very outdated. Not sure how they can charge a “Resort Fee”.....

Naimah_ham 09/09/2019

I had a great stay at the luana hotel. I had an issue with the first room I was in and Kim and Jessica at the front desk worked hard to solve my problem with an upgrade to allow me to cook during my long stay there. Besides that, all of the staff was amazing, from the valet to the housekeepers to the pool staff. The hotel is always clean, the pool area was great, and the location is perfect. Would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone!

I3841TUkimberlyb (Las Vegas, Nevada) 09/04/2019

The hotel was in a convenient location. It is just a short walk to the beach and local shops. The staff was also very friendly and welcoming. The room was clean and had the usual amenities. My only complaint is the bed and bedding. The bed was not very comfortable and the bedding was something you would expect from a one star motel. It was cheap and there was only a single sheet on the bottom that did not stay tucked in and made for a very restless night.

familytime77 (Christiansburg, Virginia) 09/03/2019

A real feeling of belonging here. Everyone was so friendly and helpful, the real Aloha spirit! The room was a suite with small kitchen, 2 burners for cooking, and all of the utensils needed. We cooked daily, which saved our budget for special eating out occasions. I enjoyed their Fish Hook restaurant for breakfast. The cooks and servers made us feel so at home. Very good bacon! Generous portions. The hotel is kept so clean, and smells so good when you enter. Peaceful Hawaiian music is piped into the lobby and open Mezzanine levels, as well as the workout room. Complimentary pool towels and beach towels, as well as beach equipment, at no cost. Swimming pool is small but nice. Barbecue grills available for cooking out by the pool. Gardens to explore on both sides of the hotel with mant exotic plants and birds. Walking distance to many stores and restaurants. Valet parking for everyone. Balcony with great view.We just loved our time here.

mayrar16 (Miami, Florida) 09/21/2019

My family and I had the best staying in Waikiki at Aqua Skyline not only for the best location, but also for the welcoming and outstanding service of Mike in the lobby. Mike was always supportive with all the recommendations, welcoming with every request and gave us the best tips to visit Oahu. He speaks Spanish also, so we felt like home in Hawaii. Love him and all the team. The best thing of this hotel was the great location, steps to the beach and Duke’s Lane , international market place and of course Diamond Head. We walked from the hotel to there and was a beautiful experience. We are counting the dates to come back to the hotel and say Aloha to Mike and the friendly there. MAHALO!

AbelardoAlvarez (Miami, Florida) 09/15/2019

Perfect location, affordable price, confortable rooms, nice amenities.. As this were not enough, Mike, one of the staff member, helped us a lot recommending us all the must-go places, tours, beaches and restaurants, not only in Oahu, but also in some other islands!!! Thanks Mike, thanks for making our vacation the most complete first visit to Hawaii... We’ll definitely see you soon!! MAHALO 🤙🏾

chongies808 09/13/2019

My family and I are locals living on the west side. Because of the absolutely ridiculous prices in Waikiki, we usually only stay there when absolutely necessary. Memorial weekend was not one of those times, but our family was in absolute need of some “alone” time and needed a stress free place to recharge. That is what we found at the Aqua Skyline. From the friendly smile at check-in to the 4 walls & 2 beds, our 2 nights of peace and quiet is exactly what we needed to recharge. Thank you Aqua!!

Bonez179 (Waianae, Hawaii) 09/03/2019

Friendly staff, rooms were a little small but very clean. My room had no kitchen sink, which I found strange. I had to do the dishes in the bathroom sink. The stove worked ok, refrigerator didn’t keep my drinks as cold as it should, but hey that’s what they make ice for.

Djterry40 08/30/2019

Such a cool vibe when you walk into the open air lobby! The staff was very accommodating and provided beach towels when we needed - everyday. :) Shout out to Michael who was especially helpful in recommending local favorites including restaurants, beaches and other activities. Our room was clean, nothing fancy but just for sleeping and showering anyway. Even though we didn’t pay for a “beach view”, we could still see the ocean from our balcony. That combined with the city and mountain views were breathtaking! Awesome location with just a quick walk to tons of local & chain shopping, restaurants and of course - the BEACH! I was impressed with level of security which required scanning your room card for access to elevators/rooms as well as a security guard manning that area 24/7. There’s also a little shop on the 6th floor in case you forget something like your razor or sunscreen, which I did :) Great experience overall and highly recommend!

Misheel C 08/30/2019

I booked this hotel last minute, 5 days prior to stay via Hotels.com, then tried to cancel 4 days prior because of an emergency. They were "happy to cancel" but no refunds were allowed. On hotels.com, I could cancel but Ewa hotel would charge a penalty that was the same amount as my stay. I think that's a great business model, to then make the room available to "other guests who may need a place" so they can sell the room again. But I am not ever going to stay here for the unsympathetic and inflexible approach they have to making money.

Wandererz808 (Honolulu, Hawaii) 07/25/2019

I checked in here as me and a friend were going out for a night of drinks and did the responsible thing and got a room to avoid a DUI. So we checked in and out the door in 5 minutes. This morning when we woke up I found BLOOD ON THE WALL and a chair has a dent on it!! Like someone had a party before I checked in. I better not be charged for this as I reported this things. I was told housekeeping will be up.. No housekeeping ever came. I felt disgusted looking at blood on the wall and no one coming I showered in case there are more blood in the area. With having the feeling that this isn’t important to them I checked out and reported to the gentleman in the front. His excuse was “maybe they were waiting for you to check out” so to tell me you rather wait for someone to have contact with blood that can contain viruses that can survive 1 week outside of the body. Didn’t have the feeling they cared enough with my complaint as I wasn’t yelling and remain calm and respectful. Side note. Hotel runs out of parking quickly so be aware and get parking early. Room was nice and good. Except the main complaint above. Hotel is a bit hidden but value was great. Great place for the price but customer service isn’t their strong ability.

Mitchhawaii (Kealakekua, Hawaii) 07/25/2019

This is one of the better budget hotels. It is also an older property but the amenities, especially for Kamaaina's makes It a great deal. The staff is extremely helpful and friendly, and you bet I'll be staying here again, versus Pagoda or Ambassador Hotel. I stayed her for 6 nights for work, so needed parking. The day I checked in, parking was sold out, so they recommended the zoo which is close by. My room had a comfortable bed, and room was clean. Shower was clean, and water hot. AC cool, no problems at all. My only complaint is one elevator, but it is an older hotel. Kamaaina use their website for specials because it is an Aston Hotel property. The person I interacted with the most is Justin at the front desk, who was very friendly and helpful. I read all of the reviews on another review site, and it's like people pay cheap and expect high class. In this hotels case, you get way more then you pay for.

danatsuchitori (Honolulu, Hawaii) 06/07/2019

This may not be a high-end resort like the Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach, but their staff, especially hotel manager, Maryknoll, made sure my requests were followed through. Upon my arrival, I had no complications whatsoever like I had at Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach. My room with a king bed was ready on a high floor at the end off the hall, just as I requested with hotel manager, Maryknoll, day before my arrival. Upon my checkout at 12noon, hotel manager, Maryknoll, sincerely apologized for no late checkouts, because of a group arrival, and extended her arm with her business card and said if you need anything else, please don’t hesitate to call me. Overall, this hotel may not be a high-end resort like Hyatt Regency Waikiki Beach, but their staff and manager just know how accommodate their guests needs without complications.

Nomadgirl1946 (Batehaven, Australia) 05/31/2019

Staying here beginning and end of May to break the trip between Australia and the US and Canada and return to Australia we found the motel handy to the shops and Waikiki Beach and surrounds. First stay found us in a clean and comfortable room with lanai. Staff friendly. However, lift was broken for 1 day which meant carrying our bags up 4 flights of stairs. Return visit we were placed in a very small room adjacent to lift - part of an adjoining suite I assume as there was a locked door in room and we could hear the voices and TV of next room. Felt very uncomfortable with little walking space and one partner had to get out of bed by climbing to the end of bed as it was against the wall. Tap on bathroom basin faulty and we worried we might be held accountable if it completely failed. Not acceptable. We requested another room and the staff obliged. Our biggest problem was the $15.00 per day service fee which includes US Today (overseas visitors have no topical interest in this paper), water in the foyer (why would you bother sitting in a small foyer to drink water), replenish coffee in room daily (this is normally a part of motel service and the coffee sachets only allow for 2 cups a day), shuttle to Ala Moana shops which one would only use once in a short stay of 3 days and local phone calls which most US motels provide as a part of room costing. This fee also allows for Internet access and in room safe which most motels provide free of charge anyway and additional inclusions (whatever that means). One has to pay this fee but in my opinion it is a form of "made up greed" for more money. An old motel but clean and tidy overall.

Meg M (Auckland, New Zealand) 09/05/2019

We only had one night here, a friday night, and wish we had stayed longer. We arrived early after an overnight flight, and they were so accommodating. Allowed us an early check in (9am), upgraded us to a penthouse suite, and breakfast was included. The penthouse suite was huge. Worked perfectly for a family of 4 with a fully equipped kitchen. The pool is small, but warm and easy to access. The breakfast included was great, cereal, bagels, coffee, all the basics. Perfect for feeding hungry kids first thing in the morning. Location is great, short walk to the beach, about 15 minutes to the zoo. The local bus stops really close to the hotel.

Lucky23Herschel 08/29/2019

We super loved our time at this Waikiki Hotel! 🏖Every amenity that we wanted, was met - Complimentary Breakfast, Location, Pool, next door Steakhouse & delightful Pub just a few doors down ... and the STAFF 🍍Rachel specifically at the Front Desk was top notch! A delight to talk with, and so helpful and courteous! Highly recommended place - would love to travel there again! 🏄🏻‍♀️

Samir L (Sydney, Australia) 08/13/2019

I stayed at this cozy hotel in the heart of Waikiki from 6 August to 13 August 2019 with my wife and two daughters. Upon our arrival we were greeted by Olivia who ensured our holiday began in good spirit. Being in great location everything is at footsteps. The free shuttle to and from Ala Mouna through out the day is an extra bonus. They have a nice little pool, concierge, breakfast area by the pool where the continental breakfast is served everyday. All the staff members including house keeping, reception specially Olivia and Rachel were really amazing. Wouldn't mind staying here again if I happen to visit Hawaii again in the future.

Lloyd G 08/08/2019

I stayed at the Aqua Oasis for 42 days while I looked for a house. Not only are the military friendly...they are friendly in general. For anyone moving to the island on TLA take advantage of this gem. The location is great, continental breakfast is free every am and parking is free. If you get a room with burners you still receive full per diem. I want to give a S/O to Maria, Olivia, Mike, Mark, Stephen, Josh, Yuta, Rachael and anyone else that I missed. You guys helped make my stay in Waikiki a memorable one. Room 801

hayleyep (Sydney, Australia) 08/05/2019

While there seem to be some other negative reviews on this place, I have to say having stayed there for a week, this place was excellent for a stay in Waikiki. Not only is it loacted in the perfect place for city transport, shopping, restaurants plus walking distance to the beach, the service here was outstanding! Maria (?), Rachel and front door man Mike were genuinely lovely, and helped us with any issues we had. They had free breakfast, a concierge service with Diana (who was fantastic) and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. The only one suggestion I would have is to provide a kettle instead of a drip coffee machine and tea for those Australians who like tea as an alternative to drip coffee. I would recommend and would stay here again on a trip to Waikiki. Thanks!
