I found the hotel to be ideally situated right on the Harbor in the beginning of Waikiki, offering a calm side of Waikiki Beach near the harbor, although slightly out of the central area. The rooms were beautifully decorated with superb amenities, but lacked soundproofing in the windows. The service was exceptional, with staff showing genuine gratitude for any tips we provided. The dining experience was delicious, offering options like Kailua pork and home-baked bread. However, the location was slightly out of the center of Waikiki, but still close to the busy tourist-y area. Overall, a great place with a few room for improvement.

I couldn't get enough of the stunning view overlooking the boar harbor; it was simply sensational. The rooms had very good amenities, although the furnishings were not any better than what you'd find elsewhere on the sixth level. Service truly stood out with exceptional customer service, but there was a lack of follow-up on my late check-out request. The location was a blessing being further away from the main Waikiki beaches, offering a peaceful retreat but still within reach for evening strolls to the strip or lagoon. The dining experience was delightful with fresh Guava juice and a good view of the harbor, providing nice options to choose from. The facilities were well-maintained, making my stay comfortable and convenient.

The hotel offers both positives and negatives. Despite the rooms being spacious with two double beds, ice in a bucket, and exact same view, there is room for improvement. On the bright side, the service is top-notch with dedicated staff. The location, while not directly on the main beach, offers waterfront access and is conveniently close to the shopping district. The dining experience is a mixed bag, with some delicious options but a limited selection. Overall, a stay here has its ups and downs but delivers a decent experience.
