    The studio was a little outdated but definitely still worth it for the price.

    The location and value for what you get is amazing.

    - parking has to be paid separately. Maximum purchase is for 5 days - parking lot has to be chased (not fixed assignment)

    - nice room and comfortable furnitures - good shower and thanks for bath products - view from 15th floor is superb

    I probably read it wrong, but I was under the impression that it had laundry in the unit, it doesn't, it's actually 7 floors down in a busy laundry room that appears to service the entire building. Towels aren't allowed by the building to be left outside to dry, we were left with a drying rack for inside, but they don't dry inside. Seating on the balcony would have been very much appreciated. Parking is pricey at $27. per day in the parking garage, but it's normal for the area. There is a cheaper parking lot close by if you're lucky enough to snag it, but it can get quite competitive.

    The location was great. The full kitchen was wonderful, it had everything that we needed, a full size fridge and stove and even all the appliances, even a blender. The small size of the counter and sink space limited what was possible in terms of food preparation, but a kitchen pays for itself in this area especially when traveling with kids. It was more like visiting a friend's house, they thought of all the nice little details even leaving aloe vera, salt, pepper, band aids, a bag for dirty laundry and laundry detergent. The beds were very comfortable and there was a fold out bed/ couch. We spent three weeks here with two small children (we brought our own crib) we were very comfortable and enjoyed our visit. One of my favorite things about it was having a keypad to get in, I never had to dig through my bag to find my room key or worry about loosing it.

    This place was an excellent value and made for a comfortable place to recharge between activities. Everything was exactly as advertised and shown in the pictures. Check-in was smooth with a very friendly rental manager. The room includes a small but adequate amount of cookware and dishes, beach and bath towels, and even a few beach items. Walking distance to beaches, the marinas, the park, a grocery store, and a large mall. I was able to meet shuttles at nearby hotels, and the adjoining parking garage conveniently has short-term Hui car rentals.

    The 2 full beds were very uncomfortable. I weigh 125 pounds and the mattress sunk in the middle. It felt like I was in a hole, and it ended up hurting my back. My husband switched beds with me, and his was a little better but not much.

    We were met by the host and he gave us a tour of the room and explained the information we needed to know (where to put trash, where to put linens at end of stay, where to get groceries, etc). The place was equipped with everything we needed for our 11-day stay, such as a few wine bottle openers, sharp knives, all the utensils for eating and cooking, cutting boards, coffee maker, electric teapot, colander, hangers, 2 boxes of tissues, 3 roll of toilet paper, clothes drying rack, an abundance of towels, shampoo, conditioner, body wash, dishes (had only 3 bowls for cereal or oatmeal), wine glasses, pots and non-stick frying pans, toaster, scissors, Saran Wrap, foil, beach chair, goggles, shopping cart, etc)

    It was nice to have a small balcony with views. Also beach towels were provided. The location was good and walking distance to central Waikiki. Overall it was a good stay.

    Check In process was easy, but it was a little awkward to have a person check in on the spot entering the studio. would prefer a different check in system like other properties we’ve rented.

    The place was the perfect getaway for our family! It had all the amenities we needed and very spacious. My child loved this studio. Our family enjoyed the convenience of the location. In addition, the on-site laundry was a plus. The Host, Marina, and her husband Oleg were very attentive and communicative to ensure our needs.

    I can't think of one thing that I didn't like about staying there.

    It was very clean and I was greeted at the door. The owners were very accommodating and made me feel right at home.

    Only thing I didn’t like was the bed. However I understand they are trying to meet the need for a variety of guest. Still was an awesome value for the place.

    Super hospitality from the owners Oleg and Marina. Very nice place that is centrally located.

    It would be nice if they left a couple extra trashbags, and toiletries.

    Parking pass with other nearby resorts hotels was a bit expensive but expected. It was street parking here and there.

    Owner was so nice and helpful. Location was convenient. The room included lots of extras and unexpected amenities. Super clean!
