    We have stayed here for the past 4 years. It is an amazing value for the room and location.

    A perfect stay would definitely recommend to young couples that are balling on a budget

    The air conditioner worked. This motel has COCKROACHES!!! I killed one crawling on the wall. I left after that to stay at embassy suites.

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    The room was clean. It reminded me of a motel 6. We were able to walk around and shop when the storm let us. Our cruise was delayed so we had to check out and find another hotel. Totally not the fault of the hotel that our room was booked for today.

    Great location for walking around Waikiki. The beach and zoo are a couple blocks away, next to the hotel is amazing Korean food trucks (highly recommend the garlic shrimp), and there are lots of ABC stores and other restaurants and shops. The hotel is a run down 2 star hotel, but the rooms have a patio, everything was relatively clean, it had a fridge and microwave and there are beach accessories available for use. Very few parking spaces, so we parked on the street and didn’t have any trouble.

    Location was good. Price was fair. Room was small and very basic. You could feel the springs in the mattress.

    At first the actual hotel and the block it’s on isn’t much to look at. But this is the definition of “never judge a book by its cover”. This hotel is so conveniently located steps away from the beach, several shopping stores and restaurants. It even has food trucks and an excursion desk right across the street. The actual room was pretty clean, no issues at all and the staff was very helpful and friendly! I would definitely recommend this place and would most certainly return on our next trip

  • Engine customer Aug 2026

    I loved that there is no resort fees because I rarely use the amenities, I also loved the fact that it is in a prime location Waikiki beach just 2min walk 2min walk if u need to catch the bus 🚌 the staff was very friendly and helpful, this is the way to go if your not looking to pay ridiculous resort fees, definitely a hidden gem, I would recommend and even stay here again

    In my experience and opinion. This is a decent place for a short stay. Clean, comfortable bed, shower small space but water functioning great & nice staff. Expect noises around during day time start at 6AM it’s a business place. Beach walkable. Next door is a local food truck great foodstuff. I will stay again.

    Good service

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    It was good for the price. A little cramped feeling. Several small spiders, but the room was overall in good condition.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    It was very affordable for the area. It was also very clean and suited my one-night needs well, especially as a last-minute booking. It was easy to walk to places. And the guy at the front desk was nice and helpful. I would recommend this place to other solo travelers. I didn't book very far in advance, so I didn't get a room on the first five floors, which are reachable by elevator. Luckily, getting up to the sixth floor was pretty easy and not too many stairs for carrying my suitcase. The office is only open 8 am - 8 pm, and I arrived about 10 pm. At first, I wasn't sure what to do but was able to call a number and someone came down and checked me in. But I did panic a little bit at first before I realized their system. And the room I was in was a fine size for one person. If you were a two people or a family, the room would be very small. Not sure if there were other sized rooms or not.

    The location is very good and close to Waikiki Beach. Facilities are not that great but manageable. Room cleaning service is very bad.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Superb
