Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is in a prime location near the beach and major shopping areas, offering easy access to various amenities. The service is exceptional, with a friendly and helpful staff, making the stay enjoyable. Overall, a great value for the money with impressive service and comfortable rooms.
The hotel offers good space for working with large and comfy rooms. The service is nice, although the hotel focuses more on procedures than people, lacking common courtesy in certain situations. The location is prime, within walking distance to various amenities. The dining options are limited but available at no extra cost.
I had a great stay at the hotel with nice, spacious rooms equipped with all essentials. The staff was attentive, although there were some issues with procedures affecting guests. The location was excellent, and the dining experience, while not outstanding, was satisfactory. The facilities were well-maintained.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were large and perfectly appointed, offering a view over the city, but they were quite noisy, which made sleeping difficult. The staff, however, were excellent in rectifying any mistakes professionally. The amenities were good, but the pillows were the worst I've ever had, and the view of the slum-like apartments next door was unpleasant.
The hotel has done some renovations which brought a nice change, although the color scheme wasn't to our liking. The staff are incredibly friendly and helpful, which made our stay enjoyable. The rooms, while clean, were a bit dated and on the small side, but they do have a lanai, which is a nice touch. Despite the average room size, it wasn't a big issue for us as we were out most of the time exploring and shopping in the area.
The hotel's rooms were pleasantly bright and clean, offering all necessary amenities for a comfortable stay, including a water heater for tea or coffee. However, the rooms are not huge but are sufficient for a good stay, especially for a long duration of 16 nights.
Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience for me. The rooms had a cute island, colorful, new age-chic decor, but being right next to the elevators could be a bit noisy. The service, though professional, lacked some common courtesy and flexibility, especially when dealing with unexpected situations like a blocked card. The location was awesome, right by the Japanese food court and just steps from the beach. The dining options were okay, but nothing too exciting stood out.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location was excellent, with easy access to downtown Waikiki, but the room had some significant issues, such as dirty sheets and a bad view. The service, on the other hand, was excellent and made our stay more enjoyable.
The hotel is conveniently located near restaurants and the beach, though it faces some outside noise. The rooms are on the smaller side but sufficient, lacking some storage options and showing signs of age, especially in the bathrooms. The service stands out with attentive staff, particularly Josh and Ricardo, who went above and beyond to assist guests.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, although spacious and well-appointed, didn't quite meet my 4-star expectations. However, the service, especially from Josh at the reception desk, was exceptionally welcoming and helpful. The location was convenient with its proximity to the beach and numerous dining options. The dining experience, though not bad, could have been a little better. Overall, it was a decent stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel offers spacious rooms that are clean and comfortable with a great view towards the ocean from higher floors. The staff is exceptionally friendly and professional, ensuring a welcoming stay. Its location is superb, close to the beach and restaurants, making it convenient for travelers. However, the breakfast options are limited, and the dining experience could be improved. Overall, it provides good value for money.
