Categories

Cleanliness
5
Multiple guests reported cockroaches and issues with room cleanliness; housekeeping is present but pests and maintenance problems (e.g., noisy AC blowing debris/noise) negatively impacted perceived cleanliness.
Service
9.8
Repeated praise for reception and staff (helpful, courteous, accommodating early check-in, staff member Debby singled out, arranged parking and vouchers); service is a clear strength across reviews.
Location
8.5
Consistently described as very strategic/close to Ala Moana, Walmart, Don Quixote and good transportation links; some notes that the beach is a decent walk away.
Room Quality
6.8
Rooms described as comfortable and spacious but marred by an old, noisy air-conditioning unit allowing street noise, occasional loud pool-adjacent music and lack of tubs in some rooms.
Amenities
7.4
Facilities generally good with a small pool and helpful restaurant staff; paid extras (microwave fee) and limited pool/no-tub amenities reduce the score slightly.
Value for Money
7.8
Guests appreciated $5 breakfast vouchers and parking assistance which improved perceived value; paid add-ons and some maintenance issues temper the value assessment.
Food and Beverage
8.5
Breakfast and restaurant service received positive mentions (vouchers, attentive servers who refill drinks), contributing positively to this category.
Overall Experience
7
Overall stays were generally positive due to service and location, but noise (AC, pool music), check-in timing constraints and cleanliness issues lowered the overall impression for some guests.
