You pretty much can tell this hotel is old just from the elevator. The room is nothing to write home about. But since we needed just an overnight stay it was all right. The staff were very nice and accommodating. The owner really need to do some renovating. But we know that's not going to happen. The area is not... More

This hotel is fantastic for the price compared to many we looked at in Waikiki. The hotel itself is a bit dated but has everything you need if your not planning to spend all day sitting in your room! Nice pool area & heated spa were a bonus. The location is good. Very close to the main drag & beach.... More

I was looking for an inexpensive hotel to store my luggage for a day so I didn't expect much. However, I thought the hotel was very good for the price. I have no idea what the other reviewer means by "paperless toilet". It had a normal bathroom. However, you did need to use your key to turn on the lights.... More

This property needed to be updated badly Yet it still proved to be a nice and relaxing place! If you are a "Green" type of person this is a very energy saving hotel from the Key card being required to turn power on to the "paperless" toilet! The pool area was very relaxing and we ate our free toast and... More

We were a little concerned about staying at this hotel at first because of only 2.5 "official" stars so were really impressed with their good service, clean and well-equipped rooms and amazing location (in the heart of Waikiki). I would easily give this hotel 3.5 stars and considering the price, it's a great deal for those who only sleep in... More

We stayed for a week in 2010 - forgot to give a review. Price was good for this average looking hotel. Room is average but carpet not so clean. Location is great! Walking distance to the restaurants, mall and Waikiki Beach.

Since this was my first time in Honolulu and Hawaii, I relied heavily on past reviews of this hotel when making my decision to book. I gotta say that previous reviews were pretty much bang on. The hotel itself is definitely quite average compared to the mainland - nothing fancy and (relatively) decently priced. My room had some damage to... More

Rooms are clean and relatively average - not so spacy if you are a family. The pool is nice but the breakfast is really cheap - pineapples from a can and toast with botter and jam. Drinks were: cooled pineapple juice from the can and black tea/coffee. They do inform you the breakfast is light, but not that it is... More

There isn't much special about this hotel, but there isn't much to complain about either. The price to stay here is lower than most hotels that are located much further from the beach and other action. The hotel common areas and rooms are reasonably clean. The furnishings are older and modest. The staff were mainly friendly and helpful. The hotel... More
