A good value if you get the right price.
If you don't book direct, there is likely a resort fee charged here (like most other hotels in Waikiki) at $35 per night, which will be paid at the time of check-in. Even though we booked this stay at the last minute, the front desk gave us an ocean view suite without asking - maybe because we came on a weekday? The view was good but being an older hotel, set further from the beach, there are other, taller hotels in your view, like the Marriott. Our room had a lanai (balcony) but it was dotted with bird droppings as they visit often. Still, you get clear views of Diamond Head. The bathroom has Hawaiian Sun body wash, shampoo, conditioner and lotion (but no mineral/reef safe sunscreen). A few notable other down sides are this hotel does not have a fancy filtered water machine like other nearby hotels have. This hotel does not lend out beach chairs, or paddle boards, or umbrellas like some other hotels do. This hotel does have 4 elevators, and while they move vertically fast through their 35+ floors, I never saw all four working at the same time. One elevator car has had a wood frame exposed to hold the wall signs fully open for years, according to a owner (this is both a hotel and private owner owned condo) I met in the elevator. The pool is only 5 ft / 1.5 m deep at maximum and faces the canal side. The gym didn't appear to have an elliptical machine when I checked (but space for one, so maybe it was just taken out?). Since we had the suite room, there was a microwave, induction stove, pots and pans, manual dish washing detergent, kitchen towels, paper towels, utensils, plates and medium-large refrigerator. There is also laundry machines on-site but we did not use and I don't think they are free. The resort fee pays for other benefits like admission to Honolulu Art Museum, and Bishop Science Museum; plus a daily paper, Honolulu Star Advertiser tucked in the door knob every morning. There are two DVDNow machines in the lobby, near security, and you get one rental coupon with your room. Housekeeping actually has an office on the 4th floor to get stuff like Hawaiian Paradise coffee. There's no hotel slippers provided or available, and no water bottle. Nearby the Honolulu Zoo is just a block over, and there's a farmer's market on Sundays mornings, The mini mart on-site but it is not an ABC so you can't earn free stuff from saving receipts, but the prices are comparable. You can rent or buy beach stuff here, too. We didn't park our car here, but I saw the parking garage was part of the hotel, which is actually plus, as you don't have to wait for valet, or cross a bridge or road to take another set of elevators. The hotel shows its age as there's no card key security for the elevator but there is around the clock security doing patrols. You can get beach towels from the front desk and they do mark it down on a clip board (rather old school). All in all a good value if you accept the caveats. Just try to get a room in the higher floors, as there's many wild chickens and roosters near the school and they like to crow in the morning.

Simply never again
Simply never again. The property is just appalling for what they charge. Smelly corridors, small beds, unconfutable couch, disgusting carpet. We had a 2 bedrooms appartement, one bedroom you could hardly get in to it. Impossible to have a suitcase to fit in any of the rooms. We had to have 4 suitcases laying in the living room at all times, very inconvenient. Everything in the property is outdated. Lifts take for ever and often with wet floors from pool users. TV network kept dropping off and often had to reset!! Unappealing pool hence never used it. To use the gym a holding deposit of $75US for a key pass is required??. I can go on but I simply will say do not waist your money, this property is not worth it in fact we found it depressing.

Convenient, clean, and would stay here again
We had a great view of the ocean from the 36th floor. The sliding door was a bit hard to open and close, but it was also very sturdy! The four elevators made wait times reasonable. Very convenient location (only a few blocks to the beach and a comfortable walk to the International Marketplace). Overall we had a great time here and would use this hotel again.

Concerns about room view and housekeeping during my stay
I wish we had full service in our room at least once, preferably twice, or even daily during our 7-night stay. I also wish we had a better view of the ocean, as the room was advertised to have an ocean view. An unattractive building blocked most of the ocean.
