Housekeeping needs more attention

All the stuffs are good especially at the front desk ladies. A young Korean lady who was there on 03/09 when we were checking in along with next few days and a middle age Philippina in the morning of 03/13 when we were checking out. However, housekeeping has and issue. Found unwashed coffee cup with stain, (that happen in every hotel no matter how much you pay. You need to bring your own sanitizer to clean most of areas), underneath of bed with dust and found someone's black bra... This was our 3rd time staying there but obviously showed wear and tear this time. Our room had a small kitchen unit but no sponge nor dish soap. I had to ask housekeeper to give us minimum tools. Some bath towels were ripped. I like the location. It is just the end of main Waikiki busiest area but everything is closed by. Regarding "Resort Fee", it stated $20.00 per night that is without local tax. Adding General Tax of 4.712% and Transient Accommodation Tax of 13.25%. I may missed read on Hotels.com but it is always nice to add all the necessary tax information as well. And needs to pay $100 refundable incidencial deposit at the time of checking in.

The Polynesian residence was in a great spot right on the main street, of Waikiki. Close to restaurants bars, also a short walk to the beach. The room was clean tidy bathroom spacious enough. Bus top around the corner to Ala Moans shopping Mall. We enjoyed our 7day stay, staff were polite helpful pleasant. We have no complaints, , definitely stay there again avery convenient location.

There was a huge mold problem in the bathroom. It stunk and getting ready in the morning made me want to vomit. This is an unsafe place to stay; if it were a restaurant it would be shut down. I’m not sure how they are allowed to continue operating, but I plan to reach out to the appropriate governing body to have their facilities investigated. I will never stay here again and if you value your health, you shouldn’t either.

We had very good stay

Very good location, short walk to beach and stores are right there. Some review says about noises from street but didn’t bother us, room was good size and comfortable bed. Front attendants were friendly and very helpful. Renovated bathroom had bidet that was important to us. Couple of things that could be improved are: installing a hook on the bathroom door for hanging used towels or clothes, small shelf inside shower stall to put soap etc on. I saw that some rooms have kitchenette so if we were staying longer next time reserve it for sure.

I booked a room with 2 double beds off of Expedia. I don’t think I have ever come across a hotel as dirty as this one. Specifically, the bathroom. It was in terrible condition, completely outdated than what was shown in the pictures. The shower doors were moldy and not clean at all. The sink kept getting clogged, it was disgusting. When I went to open the balcony door, I saw blood stains on the curtain. All night I heard the traffic chaos outside, I barely slept my whole trip. Honestly very disappointed in the stay and do not recommend for anyone trying to have a clean, comfortable stay. The only positive was the outdoor pool, it was somewhat clean. They showed us a different room but it was also in terrible condition. Housekeeping came to our room, and “cleaned” the bathroom again with just a washcloth. No cleaning products, nothing. Very disappointed overall

This was a nice property and room with a kitchenette. Staff was helpful and friendly. I would recommend outdoor furniture for their balconies, they are small but a nice place to sit outside. Watch out for the business next store, the Garden retreat, every time you leave or come back to the property they are wanting you to buy their products

staff was nice, room was decent but resort fee and parking ended up $60 extra for one night. Parking isn’t convenient nor is there a designated loading area in the morning. Service trucks use it. Everything has an added cost: extra towel, beach towels (rent), beach chairs (rent).
