Great deal for Waikiki
The service was amazing and we liked the location of the hotel in Waikiki. It was situated close enough to the main drag (international marketplace) but allowed us to avoid the traffic in Waikiki since we had a rental car. Valet parking was a bit pricy ($45/night with in/out privileges), but the attendants were friendly and very efficient. The room was clean, but they were a little old (the doors, floors, and beds were creaky). The bathroom was extremely small (like the size of a coat closet) and probably the only major downside to the hotel room for us. We had some cocktails at the Heyday bar, which were refreshing and delicious! The bar has fun swings you can sit on while enjoying the drinks. The front desk also had complimentary slushies and coffee.

We loved the old Hawaiian ambience and the friendliness, The free use ovv gf the lobby expressi machine between 9-11 am was a big plus. The location was great within 1/2 block from the major thoroughfare. The pool cafe and bar were great.

Retro Fun but be prepared...
It's Quirky & fun but...the hot tub has no jets but has a neat lottle waterfall feature. But again whats a hot tub eith no jets, the pool isnt heated at all...definetely not enough chairs by pool, bar is super cute but be prepared to drop a $20 for a drink. They have fun complementary slushies in the afternoon & coffee in the a.m. No elevator, so be prepared, they have 3 floors. Staff were very friendly. Completely affordable and just 2 blocks from the beach so you could walk tons of places! Decor is retro & fun if your into that vibe! Our balcony faced a wall to an apartment building so that super sucked so we didnt even sit out there and literally balconies were one of the reasons i booked the room.

The pool area is beautiful, a hideaway and nice area to relax. The room is worn, it is styled in a 60/70's vibe. The balcony overlooked some yards and its very close to the building next door. The bedding was worn and there were stains on the carpet... I asked for a later check out and the person was going to check but didnt get back to me.(It was only for 1/2 hour so not really a big deal). There is no elevator in the building but they offer to help you with your bags. Overall, not bad. The pool and pool bar are really cute. My daughter loved it.

Lovely experience
I had an amazing stay. Toby the bartender made me feel so welcomed and was so kindhearted. The staff was all very friendly and kind. I was staying because I was displaced for plumbing work in my apartment so the company put me in this hotel and I am very glad they chose the WS

Oasis in the City
We really enjoyed our room. My husband was in pain, and glad our room only had one flight of stairs. (2nd floor) The view was perfect; we had a "Pool View Room". With all the high-rise hotels packed side-by-side, it was nice to be in a 3-story with bamboo railings toward the pool. Seemed like a quaint oasis with the palm trees close enough for me to actually touch the leaves. ... There wasn't a bathtub in the room; it was a shower. (Small, but not a problem for either of us.) We did a lot of walking to catch buses, so my husband really needed a good long soak in Epsom salts. ❤️ ... Staff was always helpful and very friendly. Plenty of places to eat nearby. (If you have a Sam's Club card, you can get lunch really cheap!) Get a Holo card at 7-Eleven or ABC Stores, and ride the bus all day for $10. ... There's a street market on Duke's Lane (which is the south end of Nohinani St where the hotel is.) It's a block long. 5 blocks from the beach if walking. ... Bring your favorite tea bags, instant coffee or French press. There's no coffee pot in the room, but there is this amazing jet-boiler. For drinks or ramen cups or oatmeal. 😃 And they do have coffee and lattes (free) at the desk from 5 am to 11 am. and other refreshing beverages later on. .. Balcony was private enough to hang clothes over a chair to dry if I had to wash something. It rained during our stay, and the desk is outside, but I didn't melt, and I had taken an umbrella. .. I would definitely stay there again.

Amazing stay and very comfortable. The staff are very attentive and always available. The bonus is that there is a bar and restaurant right in the middle of the hotel. It has amazing views. Nice and friendly for families with children and pets. Overall, I give it a 8/10 and I’d definitely stay here again.
