The hotel rooms are very nice and beautiful, and the view is awesome. However, I noticed that the floor wasn't level and slanted towards the door, which felt a bit strange when moving around. Despite that, the room was so nice and big, providing every comfort I needed especially when I was feeling unwell, offering me a peaceful rest.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were not the cleanest with stains and torn items, but the balcony was nice. I had unexpected guests of roaches during my stay, which was unsettling. On the positive side, the location was convenient with easy access to bus stops and shopping.

Rooms

The hotel is located right on the edge of downtown, offering a clean environment and friendly personnel. While the location is convenient with shops and the beach within walking distance, there is a daily mandatory amenities fee to consider.

Rooms

8.0

My room was spacious with two queen beds and a balcony with an outdoor setting. It had all the necessary amenities like a fridge, iron, ironing board, and bathroom amenities. The balcony was a nice touch, offering an adequate size and a potential ocean view. However, there was a lingering smell of smoking present.

Service

7.0

The staff was friendly, helpful, and made check-in quick. While there were some issues like a broken lift and empty swimming pool during our 21-day stay, they did assist with booking excursions.

Location

7.0

The hotel is conveniently situated just across the road from Hilton Hawaiian Village, making it easy to explore the beach and nearby shops. The friendly personnel provide great advice on activities to do. The drawback is the need to open car doors carefully due to pillar location and the additional cost of a $30 daily mandatory amenities fee.

Dining

7.0

The dining options were satisfactory, with IHOP located next door offering a great selection. The hotel being attached to IHOP made dining easy to access. However, it would be beneficial to have more variety in the dining options.

The service was hit or miss, with some helpful interactions and others intrusive. The location was great for beach access and activities, though not ideal for a large group. The dining options were limited, but there were good choices nearby. Overall, a decent stay with some ups and downs.
