Receptionist was very courteous, pleasant and helpful. Room was clean. Didn’t like being on the ground floor with the window open to the parking lot. Closing the blinds made the room very dark. Breakfast was good. Would stay here again.

Room AC was quiet unlike many hotels in Hawaii. Shower had strong water pressure, very rare. Front desk staff very friendly. Breakfast was decent. I notified front desk re problem with weight room (parade of guests come in to fill up water bottles, one guy filled up 6 half gallon bottles during my workout). Maybe move the filtered water station to the lobby? Hard to find hotel at night in the dark due to one way streets. Apple maps send you the wrong way. Great location to walk to shops and restaurants. I would stay here again.
