The apartment is located in an old building, but the apartment itself has been nicely renovated. Air conditioning works great in all rooms. Noises from the town traffic are not an issue during evening and overnight. Conveniently located to walking distance from most of Waikiki amenities. Elevators take forever to go up and down, but it’s due to being part of the old building. Parking free is awesome. Will certainly stay again! As advertised.

We enjoyed our stay. The property is older, no wow factor walking in. However the unit was very nicely remodeled. It is older and just a Fresh coat of paint and upgrades, but it was charming and cozy. One request would be more mirrors, only the bathroom mirrors with one bathroom so when four people are trying to get ready, they were doing hair and makeup out in the kitchen. It's about a 5-minute walk to Waikiki beach. Beautiful views of Diamond Head, if you are going to hike it, get a reservation early.

The unit was very clean. The view when opening the door into the unit is of Diamond Head through the sliding glass doors. NICE! Only negative is the sometimes long wait for the elevators. (One of the four was down for repairs when we visited). A four block walk to Waikiki Beach was a nice bonus. Shopping and restaurants are all around. We would stay here again if visiting Oahu.

The property worked fine for our needs. Really good location, nice view. The right amount of space for our needs.
The WiFi wasn't working when I arrived but they were super responsive and a guy came over to fix it right away. Total bonus points.
The place smells slightly moldy. You can tell families and people who don't care about the space come through in wet bathing suits and wet feet and walk on the carpets and sit on the furniture. The place would do well with wood or laminated flooring.
The place was well stocked for our needs.

5 of us stayed comfortably in this place. Bedrooms were tight but we had enough space. Nice balcony overlooking Diamond Head was a great place for morning coffee. An easy walk to Waikiki Beach. Decent, but small, exercise room with dumbbells and a universal machine. Only minor complaint was the loud roosters every morning.

We loved walking everywhere and the free parking is a major plus. The view of Diamond Head is fantastic. But this condo needs a little TLC and updating. There is paint blotches, the caulking is the bathroom is laughable, the vanity cabinet is rusty, the couch is dirty, kitchen fan is broken. (don't cook bacon!) With a little work, this condo could be great! But I get the feeling it doesn't matter if people check in, check out and they get paid.
On the bright side, the kitchen amenities are great. Blender, toaster, plenty of pots/pans/dishes and the outdoor barbecues are clean, convenient.
Would I stay here again? Depends. Honululu is expensive, and the price was fair, given the product. I'd look elsewhere first.

This property was what we needed for our trip. The description and pictures are accurate. We were within walking distance to shopping, restaurants and the beach.

Excellent location! Absolutely stunning view of Diamond Head from the living room and lanai. Short walk to Waikiki beach, restaurants and shopping. The property had everything we needed: comfortable beds, full kitchen w/counter seating, pull out sofa bed, and great parking. We thoroughly enjoyed our extended stay (45 days). It felt like a home away from home!

Grea stay all around. The unobstructed view of Diamond head was the best part.
The kitchen was fully stocked and the beds were comfy. The included parking spot should not be underestimated.

The property is very well located with good parking. Unfortunately, the building is undergoing major renovation and we felt compelled to leave the unit on any number of days due to high levels of noise, water shut-offs for building-wide "plumbing emergencies", etc. Also some basic maintenance items have been neglected such as non-functioning electrical outlets, non-working kitchen fan, and non-functioning smoke alarm. The dinette chairs were extremely uncomfortable. We ended up using the hardwood outdoor chairs most of the time.

Can’t beat the location of this condo! It’s just a short walk to the beach, shops, and restaurants. The condo was also well equipped with cookware and appliances and made us feel right at home. Highly recommended!
