Location is fantastic and the view from lanai is gorgeous. The building is very secure and well kept, nice pool area and common areas. Pretty much everything waikiki is within walking distance, the beach, restaurants, shops, the Zoo & Aquarium. The only downfall about the location is the street noise in the evenng. The condo was nice, great lanai and clean, but....we couldn't get the lights in the master bdrm to work, a couple of the switches were broken, one lamp plug was taped together and plugged into an extension cord that was laying on the nightstand. The condo smelled bad when we arrived but we thought it was from the humidity, but the smell got worse over the next couple days so we let the host know, but they thought it was from an outside source or something but the smell persited. we shut off the a/c system and the smell started to go away, as long as the system was off the smell was gone so we told the host but we went without any a/c until the day before we left when the host had the maintenance man clean the system and replace the filthy dirty filters. The condo was not well equipped with back up products like paper towells and toilet paper & no large mixing bowls or platters for making a big meal. There was one kitchen towell, a few wash clothes and no hand towells that we could find. Plenty of bath towells that doubled as beach towells. Overall a good place if the a/c system stays clean, but pricey for the lack of many basics like kitchen & hand towells.
