Perfect location

Stayed here for a week during xmas time. We had a partial city view room with fully equipped kitchen and verandah. Room was clean on arrival. Had 2 double beds, nice sized tv with cable, table and chair seating, large BIW with safe inside and room to hang clothes. Location is excellent. Coffee and snack bar downstairs aswell as convenience store next door. 5 min stroll to main waikiki strip and beach. 2 min to restaurants. abc store across the street. Staff are polite and helpful and housekeeping daily. Shuttle service to all main attractions from hotel lobby. 24hr gym, laundry and ice available.They have a pool on 2nd floor, the only downside is it closes at 7pm which i think could be extended. Would definitely recommend and stay here again.
