Reviews and Ratings
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and neat, although facing Ala Moana Boulevard meant some traffic noise. The equipment provided was good, and the bathroom was spotless. The service was excellent, with a slightly dated but helpful approach. The location was convenient, near the Ala Moana Center and Waikiki, making it perfect for exploring the area. The dining options were limited, but the Italian pasta was a tasty choice. Overall, a nice place for a cozy stay with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel was a mixed experience. While the rooms were cozy and tidy, the beds were small for three adults. The service was exceptional, with very friendly staff, although no assistance was provided with luggage due to a stairway. The location was good for my needs, though a bit of a walk to the beach. Unfortunately, dining options were limited, and the facilities were basic.
The hotel offers a comfortable stay with friendly service and a convenient location close to shopping and public transport. The rooms are comfortable and airconditioned, although carpeting might need an update. Leaving the car and bags after check-out was a helpful perk, and the access to a shower before departure was a nice touch.
