Great location for walking around Waikiki. The beach and zoo are a couple blocks away, next to the hotel is amazing Korean food trucks (highly recommend the garlic shrimp), and there are lots of ABC stores and other restaurants and shops. The hotel is a run down 2 star hotel, but the rooms have a patio, everything was relatively clean, it had a fridge and microwave and there are beach accessories available for use. Very few parking spaces, so we parked on the street and didn’t have any trouble.

The room was clean. It reminded me of a motel 6. We were able to walk around and shop when the storm let us. Our cruise was delayed so we had to check out and find another hotel. Totally not the fault of the hotel that our room was booked for today.

At first the actual hotel and the block it’s on isn’t much to look at. But this is the definition of “never judge a book by its cover”. This hotel is so conveniently located steps away from the beach, several shopping stores and restaurants. It even has food trucks and an excursion desk right across the street. The actual room was pretty clean, no issues at all and the staff was very helpful and friendly! I would definitely recommend this place and would most certainly return on our next trip

Friendly staff and clean hotel room! Hotel is located in a great spot, close to the beach and main strip of Waikiki. Parking is limited so definitely reserve in advance as possible.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel manager and staff were friendly and accommodating. They messaged me ahead of time to find out if there were any special plans or needs required and reserved a spot for parking since I mentioned I had a rental. Unfortunately I had to cut my trip short due to an emergency and they were very kind. It’s not the most luxurious hotel I’ve stayed in but it was fair in price and in a great location close to the beach and shopping and restaurants. If you’re on a budget and want to stay in a prime area, I recommend this hotel.

This property is a good value if you want to spend less on lodging and not stay in a hostel. It is next to the food trucks (which also have trash taken out every morning), but this did not bother us. This place is far from a fancy hotel, but I think it is good value for the money, and is in a great location.

While the downtown Waikiki location was advantageous, parking availability was limited and required proficient maneuvering. The shower facilities and guest rooms would benefit from an upgrade. Otherwise, the location and all other amenities were satisfactory.

Everything was good. We got in after hours but the keys was insids the locks right where they told us. All we had to do was to unlock the box get our keys and lock the lock back up. After we got off the cruise, they held our luggage for us due to us getting there before check in time. They were friendly.
