Good location and staff but room is outdated for the price.

No USB inputs at all. Not that important for most travelers but important for some and most hotels at lower prices even have it as a standard.

Bathroom is pretty standard. For the price I would at least hope for a bidet toilet setup or expect the toilet to have eco flush but it’s just basic single flush and doesnt even have a quiet close lid.

Major noise warning you’re next to Ala Moana parking. If you’re a light sleeper, stay far away. The garage still has public access late into the night and there is not enough enforcement so very loud cars will come in the middle of the night and rev their engines. The room doesn’t block out most of the noise and I was woken up multiple times due to car noise.

Hotel room noise in general could also be better insulated. You can hear when someone starts showering and even their smart phone alarm.

At night with all the lights off, you can see a large amount of light bleed around the front door so you’re going to hear everything when other tenants enter and exit their rooms and any other noise in general. This also means the AC has to work a little harder with all the hot or cold air just bleeding out of these crevices. A few bits of weatherstripping around the doors would save a lot of money and help with noise.

I couldn’t pinpoint the exact location but you’re able to hear people having conversations though very faintly. No big deal if you can sleep through that.

Great parts about the room are the bed and microwave. Bed was very comfy and microwave was nice to have. The air conditioning also works well and they let you set it below 70 degrees but it’s loud as part of the unit is indoors vs more modern hvac setups with most of the unit outside or at least the indoor section is better insulated. It’s not the loudest AC unit I’ve slept through but something to keep in mind if you’re worried about noise.

You get a big fridge but it seems to be a bit dated for how noisy it is. If you’re here for an extended amount of time, it should fit a good days worth of food and supplies. There’s no water included so make sure to bring your own. There’s a convenience store on the lobby floor.

One thing not uncommon even in fancier hotels are the vents. I wish more hotels would give their vents a good wipe down at least once a month otherwise they tend to get neglected as shown in the photo.

Apart from the noise and price, no big issues with this hotel. If they can resolve those issues and update the rooms without increasing the price, then I could justify staying here again.
