I have stayed at, and continue to stay at this property because of its no frills rooms, great location, and privacy. Accommodation in Honolulu is extremely expensive, and this property is affordable for all travelers. Anytime I’m traveling through Honolulu on the way to my destination, I choose this property.

I understand it was cheap but the place was so dirty! The lobby area looked clean but once you got to the room, it was so dusty, drawings on the wall and the windows was super dirty. It was dorm feeling indeed but this was worse! There was mold in the shower and shower curtain. This has to be there dirtiest place I’ve ever been. Also there was a ball of hair on the ground. The room was super hot.

The front staff was very rude and kept saying she just started and didnt know anything. I expected a simple room for the price but didnt find anything very clean and the pillow was awful. The bed was actually ok but since theres no AC and only shutter windows you could hear everything and everyone outside at all hours. I would not stay here again.

Staff was very friendly and helpful. Room was extremely basic -, no aircon and clearly not the room featured in the photos. Pretty much anything metal was rusty. The one bathroom per floor was pathetic: one of two toilets was out of order and, as I recall, two of five sinks were out of order. I do a lot of travel on the fairly cheap and this was probably the second worst place I've stayed. You do not want to know about the worst! ;(
