Categories

Cleanliness
6.8
Mixed reports: several guests noted moldy shower heads, dirty/holed curtains and sticky floors; some guests said rooms were cleaned. Overall cleanliness is below expectation given the property's age.
Service
8.8
Generally friendly and helpful front desk (including Japanese-speaking staff, early check-in), but there are isolated but serious reports of unhelpful responses (e.g., parking/towing and AC issues).
Location
9.5
Excellent location near the beach, public transport to the airport, shops (ABC, Target) and restaurants; consistently praised and offers good views.
Room Quality
6.5
Rooms are spacious with good views and balconies, but multiple guests reported aging, dampness, rotting wood, loud air conditioning and worn/broken furniture.
Amenities
7.2
Amenities are serviceable but dated: pool is outdated and small; positive touches like iced lemon water in the foyer; parking is not managed by the hotel which caused problems for guests.
Value for Money
8.5
Viewed as good value for Honolulu by several guests—spacious apartments and reasonable price—though a minority felt misled by advertising.
Food and Beverage
8.4
Limited mentions; the iced lemon water in the foyer was praised. No major food/beverage complaints, so this area is rated positively but not exceptional.
Overall Experience
9.1
Overall positive for many guests due to location, views and generally friendly staff; however, maintenance and cleanliness issues affected some stays. Majority would consider returning.

Gute Lage, aber kein gutes Hotel
Pros:

Die Lage ist gut und der Preis ist für Honolulu in Ordnung. Das Personal an der Rezeption ist freundlich.

Cons:

Man darf sich wirklich nicht von den Fotos hier täuschen lassen: der Zustand des Hotels ist überhaupt nicht gut. Es ist alt und die Zimmer sind sehr verwohnt. Die Vorhänge sind dreckig und löchrig, der Boden klebt, die Möbel sind alt und teilweise kaputt. Die Sauberkeit ist auch nur mangelhaft. Auch der Pool-Bereich ist in schlechtem Zustand. Wir würden das Hotel nicht nochmal buchen.

Spacious room, but poor maintenance, a noisy AC, and unhelpful staff made for a disappointing stay.
Pros:

The room was spacious.

Cons:

The parking is not owned by the hotel. At check-in they ask you to fill out a form for your car, but then say they take no responsibility, so what is the form for? Our car was towed, the staff had no idea and didn't help at all; they just told us to call a number. The room was mostly wood, and the wood was starting to rot. The whole room was damp. The shower head was moldy and smelled bad, and clearly hadn't been replaced. Worst of all, the air conditioner was extremely loud, making it impossible to sleep with it on. When we told the staff, they said all the units are like that and nothing could be done, so we had to turn it off and sleep in the Hawaii heat. Overall, the staff was not helpful with any of our issues.

快適にすごせました
Pros:

フロントが日本語が話せる方だった。早めにチェックインさせてもらえた。
真正面にドーンとハイアットが建っていたが、お部屋から海が見えた(オーシャンビュー)
ABCストアもTargetも近くにあり、日用品の購入にはこまらなかった。
お部屋もベットもひろく、のびのびできた。
毎日の清掃がないので、いろいろ気を使わないで済んだ。

Cons:

設備は年季が入っている。(掃除は綺麗にされている)
シャワーの使い方が難しい…引いて蛇口の突起を引っ張ったらシャワーが出る仕組みになっているが、まず引っ張るのがすごく堅い…
消防点検?が何のお知らせもなく来た…

Perfect and convenient location with stunning views.
Pros:

Beautiful views from our veranda, close to food and shops! The iced lemon water in the foyer was delicious after a day out and about.

Cons:

Just a bit old and the pool is a little small especially when there’s more than one family in the pool. But still relaxing.
