Pros. After camping for a week and only having access to cold showers, the bathroom, especially the shower was a highlight. It was nice to be able to dry out our tent on the balcony and rearrange our luggage room. Security on staff throughout night. Close proximity to Waikiki beach, shopping and restaurants. Value matched or slightly better than expected for location during spring break.

Cons. The keys didn't work initially and the room didn't have enough towels for all occupants. We had to haul 6 suitcases up 3 flights of stairs (no elevator). Halls were outdated. Neighborhood is frequented by less than desirable individuals/activities. Yelling, fighting and crying disturbed our sleep; not sure if it was coming from inside or outside the hotel. No shuttle. Expect to pay $45 via taxi to/from HNL or try Hawaii23 transport service. Another guest told us about them and the price was much lower with very friendly owner and driver.
