Recomendable si va por trabajo
Pros:

La ubicación no me gusto. Está lejos de la zona de Waikiki

Cons:

Los ascensores. Mucho tiempo de espera cada vez que se quería subir o bajar.
La cochera no es muy cómoda porque hay que tomar ascensores que nunca llega y MUY cara

Couldnt see in the bathroom. No phone no internet. Terrible night.
No one had told us what was happening
Still no electricity next morning. Couldnt shower or dry hair or iron. No lights in the lift.nothing from staff to let us know what happened. Wouldnt recommend to anyone.

Gutes Hotel
Pros:

Gut gelegenes Hotel mit schönem Zimmer, bequemes Bett, sehr sauber. Handtücher/Shampoo/Conditioner/Duschgel vorhanden. 10 min Fußweg zum Strand. Kleiner Einkaufsmarkt und dutzende Restaurants in unmittelbarer Umgebung.
