The staff and the Aunties was real life local style, we loved staying there and will definitely make that place a regular when staycationing. The ambience was very soothing and the staff was really kind from the valet parking to the Aunties on the front desk. Also just knowing the history of the place and how that this is one of if not the only hotel that is family owned was very great. Really loved the clean rooms and freash coffeee not to mention the complementary drinks it was awesome thank ypu Equus.

Good location, walking distance to both Ala Moana and Waikiki. Twin rooms are big, clean, and with good amenities. Staff are helpful and friendly. Sound proofing could be better, a lot of road noise heard in the rooms. The single elevator for 10 floors is old and creaks. Property has no driveway, just a street level garage and you have to carry bags using outside stairs to the lobby.

To be honest I found the property itself to be quite nice, however the traffic noise was at times unbearable. From sirens to motorcycles and hot rod cars racing on Ala Moana all night long into the early morning!

Liked: Staff & service
The staff were wonderful. They were helpful and kind. The room was okay. Carpet and ottoman need some love (dirty), Hallway to get to room was dark- needs better lighting. The bed was almost like an air mattress. Not my favorite. The room had lots of outdoor noise. Tried to use air conditioner to drown it out. Bathroom was newer and nice. Room and bathroom were small.
