It is a hotel that you can find in a roadway in the middle of mainland. Absolutely overpriced, old furniture, old elevatpr, expansive parking, small TV, walls cracked, the bathroom is disgusting. Keep in your mind you probably paying more than 100USD here and not 40 bocks. If it costs 40 or 50 USD maybe it could be an option for someone. It is a rip off the 17USD named resort tax. Never but never more stay here again. Pay 50 USD and stay in a clean hotel but never here

Always very happy to be at the Ewa. It's like home. I missed the nice picture that was hanging on the wall when I first walked into the lobby. Also, you used to have little paper glasses with the water for a quick refreshing drink.

For its location and price, the Ewa Hotel is a solid choice in the Waikiki area. Sure, the physical condition of the rooms and hallways are not the newest or cleanest. But we got a room for three people that included three single beds, a TV, a two-burner stove, fridge, and microwave at a reasonable rate. Breakfast is not included, but the in-room wi-fi is stable and relatively fast. If you need a parking space (extra charge), be sure to check-in as early as you can, because there's a limited number of spaces available. The biggest annoyances were the added fees that are not included in the advertised room rate. That practice is so common among hotels now that it's confusing and almost impossible to compare total price, which is, unfortunately, exactly what hotels want to do.

Don't be deceived by the pictures posted online!!! Definitely on the contrary and were taken probably 30 years ago. It needs a complete renovation. Because of the scary condition of their one and only elevator, we used the stairs all the time. The only thing nice about this place is its location.

This place is horrible. Filthy. You just feel dirty staying here. Male front desk agent at night was very rude. No deadbolt on door. Toilet made noise all night. NO CLOSET OR HANGERS EVEN!!! No outside guests after 10pm. Very limited parking. Will never stay here again and suggest you don’t either.

Staffs are unprofessional. The rooms infested with cockroaches. They're racist and ignorant. I was to be there for 7days but I had to leave in 2 because they threatened me. Unsafe environment! Don't recommend

Everything very very good, except couldn't do work requires internet. Great staff, very friendly, patient, helpful front desk staff. Room is clean, bright, bathroom is clean, everything is stocked well and nicely. Except I needed to do urgent work, sending some video through internet, it was very very slow.

Room was selected online although there wasn't an online tour that could of assured what the room looked like before reserving . The room smelled like corn chips and some funky tangy spoiled dip. Had to freshen it up with some febreze and Giovanni Versace cologne oh yes yes! The playstation was an nice upgrade it needs an new controller left an good movie in there hopefully someone will enjoy it. The room and the entire hotel is overdue for renovations all over as well as updated amenities. Almost slipped and fell out of the tub, there is no made in rough surface mat that is needed to assure guests won't injure themselves trying to clean them selves up. The was alot of dust and debree everywhere as well as broken or disabled hangers that can cause major health problems and insurable risks to guests and employees. The windows where needing cleaning and didn't provide an good outlook or view to the ocean or city area. The carpet smelled very musty and a few stains where in there and it seemed contagious as well as an few insects flying around mating on anything they wanted to mate on. The bed was comfy although the sheets and covers smelled like tobacco products felt like I was dumped into an astray next to an filthy trash can. The microwave worked although it was handicapped in remembering how many seconds to heat up my eatable items and it smelled like melting plastic so I threw away my hot food and was forced to buy an tuna sandwich from the convenience store right under my room. The convenience store looked okay from the outside although inside it smelled like there was an power outage, the floors need sweeping and mopping and products properly placed on the shelves instead of the floor that was kinda unsanitary to the fullest degree. Some of the products was out of date and warm when they should of been cold dripping wet. The elevator seemed okay although it was faulty and felt like an amusement park ride with out the seat belt. The roof needs pro sealing.!

Stayed at the Pagoda hotel last night, this place should be ashamed charging $100 a night. It is more like a $50 a night hotel.The website pictures must have been taken with a Snapchat filter because the hotel looks kinda like the pictures, only worse. Hallway and rooms smell musty. Not sure what was going on with the smoke detector, but there was a washcloth over it. The bathroom door was so dirty on both sides. There isn't a chain lock on the front door, and I just didn't feel very safe here. The area isn't the best area either, but it is close to the Walmart. The only reason I gave it 2 stars is because they offer free movie rentals at the vending machine and have a PlayStation 3 in the room. They are also next door to a cool restaurant that has tons of Koi fish. The lady at the front desk gave us food for the fish. There is a mini fridge, microwave, and toaster in the room. We won't be coming back here.

Terrible experience so far. The hotel is super old and run down in parts from being built in the 60’s. There is an odd smell in the hallways, and a toxic chemical smell in the stairwells. You also have to deal with jerks and hot-heads like Rob for management. I suffer from PTSD and travel with my service dog for the last 10 years. I have all the proper paperwork, and I submitted it to the state of Hawaii and everything before my arrival. An old man complained about my dog, and I got a call from management (Rob), who yelled at me saying my service dog is not allowed in the building unless I am blind or he opens doors for me. This is quite the claim! We have literally seen 3 other dogs here, one of which being a 5 pound little fluffy white dog. It definitey doesn’t open doors! For him to decide which level of service he think qualifies is unethical, and against the law. Rob also told me he had his attorneys looking into the situation as if to scare me. Rob came pounding on my door and asked for my driver’s license to “put me in the system”. 15 minutes later the cops came to my room! One of the most bizarre, frustrating, angering situations I have been apart of in a hotel. We are paying $3200/month to be here! Do yourself a favor and find a different location where you don’t have to deal with nasty people like Rob

We were booked to stay at Ilikai Hotel and luxury suites in early May but then coronavirus hit. Suddenly international travel was stopped and we could no longer travel from Australia to Hawaii. We were able to get refunds for our cruise, tours, and flights but sadly Ilikai Resort has repeatedly refused to refund our substantial full payment for 2 rooms, only offering a credit for future use, even though experts are saying that international travel won’t be likely until 2024. Of course my credits will have expired by then. Lesson learned - never pay up front for accommodation. You got me this time Ilikai, but you won’t get me again.

Stayed here in February, absolutely loved it! Our rooms were great, restaurants had good food, lots of shops to choose from and very close to all the benefits of Waikiki. The courtyards and gardens are gorgeous. Be careful with booking though, there are multiple management styles in the property. Some are regular hotel (what we did), there are private condos, apart-hotel and travel club levels. I can say the hotel side is wonderful!

Let me start by saying I have previously stayed at the Ilikai Hotel and loved it, this time we had decided to use Waikiki Beach Rentals to rent one of their privately owned condo. I should have trusted my gut and not rented it. The room was dirty and not well taken care of at first glace it looks like a renovated condo. The beds are NOT comfortable and squeak. The bathroom was dirty and had tooth paste spit on the door. The sheets and pillow cases had stains. Since you have to clean your own dishes the dishes in the cupboard were dirty and spotty. The couch had stains on it. The walls where the beds are have scrapes and gouges on them. The tracks for both the closet and the sliding glass doors are so dirty they are hard to open. Oh and if you post a negative review on the WBR site they will no post it. But while at the Ilikai do try the frozen yogurt place and Cinnamons.
