The hotel was clean and convenient. Seemed more suited to a younger crowd looking for convenience and lower rates. We picked an evening when the pool area was rented to an event. The party went on until 1 am.

This hidden gem is in the heart of Waikīkī. Walking distance to great food and entertainment. The hot tub jets weren’t working but it was nice and hot! The pool swings at the bar are a fun treat. Staff is awesome.

This is an older hotel though it’s renovated. However, do note that there are no elevators. The pool chaise longue needs to be updated and reupholstered. My room still has carpet. Better to remove it. However, with that said, the decorations are trendy and cute. It has a bar and dining options and I had the best sleep I’ve ever had in months. Surprisingly, it was quiet and the bed was great. Will I return? Yes.
