Reviews and Ratings
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were extremely small with a showerhead height only up to my nose, and my booking for a king-size bed was not met. However, the staff was overall friendly and welcoming. The location was convenient to restaurants and shopping but had some issues with cleanliness and waiting times. The dining options were good, and the facilities were decent.
I was a bit let down by my stay at this hotel. The room, though at a pretty good rate, made flushing noises all night, which kept me awake. For the $336 I paid, I expected more than what felt like a motel room. The staff's attitude when I brought up the issues was quite disappointing. The room itself felt more like a prison cell than a welcoming vacation space.
Although the rooms were smaller than expected and need an upgrade, they were fine for a short stay. The hotel staff was friendly and accommodating, always ensuring we had what we needed. The location was excellent, especially for shoppers with direct access to Ala Moana Center. The dining options were average, and it might be worth exploring alternatives for better value. Overall, a decent hotel with some room for improvement.
The hotel room was a letdown with constant flushing noises disrupting our sleep, not worth the high price tag. The staff's attitude towards our complaints was disappointing. However, the location was convenient for shopping, and the room, though small, was suitable for a single traveler despite lacking a view and comforter.
I had a mixed experience at Ala Moana. The rooms were nice and clean, but the A/C had some issues. The service was very helpful and friendly throughout my stay. The location was good, though there were some noise disturbances. The dining was decent, but with limited choices. Overall, it was a comfortable stay with a few drawbacks.
The hotel room was a bit small, especially for the price, making it hard to move around. The showerhead height was equal to my nose, which didn't offer much space to refresh before leaving to the airport. However, the seats in the room were large but didn't help with the overall space issue.
The hotel offers a nice view of the bay from the somewhat small rooms which are generally nice and clean, though the A/C can be a bit temperamental. The service showcases the Aloha spirit with attentive staff but lacks hospitality in some situations. The location is convenient for shopping and dining, although the breakfast options seem limited for vegetarians. The dining experience is enjoyable at the convenient onsite cafe. Facilities are sufficient, providing guests with necessary amenities.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was convenient, being centrally located at the entrance to Waikiki with easy access to Honolulu, but the lack of prior notification about maintenance work was disappointing. The service was excellent, with extremely courteous and helpful staff, although some insistent demands took away from the experience. The rooms, while a bit dated, provided a brief spot to freshen up before my airport departure; however, the cleanliness was not consistent throughout. The dining experience was a letdown with empty choices not being refilled promptly, but there were some local food options available. The hotel facilities were satisfactory overall.
The hotel was small and dated, but adequately met my needs. I found the rooms very small, and I would have preferred Queen-sized beds instead of doubles. The location was excellent, with easy access to the Mall next door, although safety concerns arose due to the surroundings. The dining options had long lines, but I found better value for breakfast in the food hall at the shopping center. The service was extra helpful, especially at the checking counter, and I appreciated the friendly and professional staff.
