are high maintenance I suggest you stop reading this and go pay hundreds of dollars for horrible service. This hotel is best for anyone who is kind and wanting to explore the island. The staff, especially Carmen was extremely helpful. They told us about all the places to go and how to take the bus without looking like tourist. Best... More

Small parking area under building, cheap parking daily rate. Unit 506 is on the Ala Wai so street noise is expected. Room is very clean no roaches or bed bugs. Cute lil unit for the budget conscious. I give it a thumbs up.

The hotel is in a good location. It's very old and not maintained. Paint is peeling carpets worn. Furniture old and banged up. Old and dented appliances. No amenities . Have to pay for parking and wifi .. Would not stay here again....Does not look like pictures on web page

We were very impressed with our stay. Had a private parking spot, wonderful apartment style room and a nice balcony to watch the sun rise from. Loved every minute of our stay and the owners even offered us free mangoes! Couldn't have asked for a better vacation.

It's not a typical hotel - you get a studio apartment (living room, 1 bedroom, a kitchen and toilet). Pluses: I think it's the cheapest available and rather worth the price. Great location (3-5 minutes to Waikiki Beach), we had a corner apartment with a beautiful view of the canal and mountains. Minuses: Very noisy 3-lane street outside makes a... More

The only positive thing about this hotel is the location. Luckily we only had to stay one night before we went on our Hawaiian cruise. There was duck tape holding up the tile in the shower. The fixtures were probably more than 50 years old. It was so bad, I didn't even take a shower. Worse hotel I ever stayed... More

Not fancy but clean and secure Dated but has a big fridge and stove so if you want to save money then it's good. Also microwave and toaster. One block from the international market place. Starbucks, Subway and McDonald's are nearby
