Pros:

Das Preis Leistungs Verhältnis ist super. Der Weg zum Strand ist ebenfalls sehr kurz. Das Personal ist äussert hilfsbereit und kompetent. Mit dem Frühstück waren wir sehr zufrieden. Es ist klasse dass man jederzeit Kaffe und Eistee in der Lobby holen kann.

Good location not far from the beach
Pros:

Great location, good amenities provided (beach towels, beach chairs, umbrellas etc.) good breakfast provided and very friendly and helpful staff.

Cons:

Like lots of Waikiki is dated and looking a little worse for wear. Could use an update in the rooms

Pros:

Great location- 3 blocks from Waikiki beach and near lots of food options. The breakfast was very good with ample food options like eggs, meats, fresh fruits, oatmeal, coffee and juice. Loved the umbrellas, beach chairs, and other goods available to guests at no extra cost. Valet parking for $40 (24 hrs) was helpful too. Lobby and breakfast area look inviting. Comfortable bed.

Cons:

No major complaints- The room itself is in need of some love. It looks a bit tired with dark carpet and mismatched lighting in the bathroom and room lamps (cool light & warm light in the same fixture). If you want a nice room for a special occasion this isn't it. Just an average room.

Pros:

Świetna lokalizacja, śniadania proste ale smaczne. Parking był bardzo przydatny. Pracownicy bardzo mili. Możliwość zabierania dla siebie sprzętu plażowego również na bardzo duży plus. Jeśli kiedyś wrócę to na pewno do VIVE.

Pros:

La ubicación es excelente y el personal muy amable y dispuesto.

Cons:

Las habitaciones estaba ok, pero el tema era que los aires acondicionados son muy viejos, y habia gotas de condensación que caian de los aires de pisos mas arribas sobre la caja exterior del aire. El ruido era insoportable, tienen que mejorarlo! Lo peor es que no te pueden cambiar de habitación porque pasa en todas!!

Cons:

My personal towel was stolen at the hotel. According to hotel instructions, it was hanging on a rack and wasn't even supposed to be replaced. Despite this, room service took the towel, and despite two calls to reception, it wasn't returned or compensated. I was also charged for using the minibar and paid for chips that weren't even on the menu! This is truly ridiculous.

Good stay near waikiki
Pros:

The hotel is very close to Waikiki and all the major attractions nearby including shops, restaurants caffès etc, that’s the biggest plus, other than that hotel has possibility to rent beach towels, chairs and umbrellas which is great, we also used valet parking which I think was awesome and very convenient,and last but not least the drinking water available all the time in the lobby

Cons:

Room was too small for two people with two large two small suitcases and 2 backpacks plus some extra stuff like cooler, it was hard to move around the room with all that things, also room was a bit dirty especially windows, there was hair on the wall , and lots of dust in multiple places, I have mixed feelings about breakfast, it was there, but not much of a choice, you could grab anything but that’s it.
