Buen alojamiento
Pros:

Nuestra estancia en The Twin Fin tuvo aspectos muy positivos y otros mejorables. Lo mejor fue, sin duda, la atención del personal del desayuno. Dos camareras argentinas fueron especialmente amables, simpáticas y muy atentas durante toda nuestra estancia. El desayuno estaba muy rico y ofrecía una buena variedad de opciones.
La ubicación del hotel es excelente, justo frente a la playa, lo que permite disfrutar de Waikiki cómodamente. También quedamos satisfechos con el servicio de valet parking, que fue eficiente y práctico. La piscina está genial

Cons:

Relación calidad precio

Cons:

Como aspectos negativos, a pesar de haber reservado una habitación con una cama grande, nos asignaron una habitación con dos camas individuales, lo que resultó decepcionante. Además, consideramos que la relación calidad-precio es algo elevada para las prestaciones ofrecidas.

Would stay again!
Pros:

A 5Star stay for myself (F62 and sister F55). The view from the balcony was awesome. Enjoyed the pool, towels were provided. The location was awesome (beach across the street, so many restaurant choices with in a block). Tours picked up right in front of hotel or down the block at the Marriott). Bus stop also just down the block. Budget pricing compared to the larger newer resorts. Room was clean and nicely sized as was the bathroom. AC worked well.

Cons:

I really can't think any complaints. Just know that this is not a 5star Hotel but it does provide a 5Star Stay for someone on a budget.

Great spot, wonderful views from our room and a comfortable stay
Pros:

Our first time to Hawaii and such a great location for us - close to the beach, shops but also not too busy like further along Waikiki. The room was good, loved the view and nothing was outstanding but we were not expecting that for the price (compared with other seafront hotels). It was great to have the daily tokens for umbrellas, boogie boards etc. That worked really well. Overall an excellent time.

Cons:

Check in took some tme due to the queues, but perhaps to be expected with so many rooms!

Excellent location. Breakfast was different each day with plenty of choice. Super comfy beds. Beach rentals included in the stay.

Beach towels were a hot commodity.
