Need imporvment in hotel room too small and not clean. like neighbourhood. so conviniance. close to beach, reastaurants, shopping and transportation.

Cute Place, Could Be Better

I felt that the hotel was really good in all aspects except for two: 1) the paint used in the majority of the hotel was a poor choice, it made everything look cheap when it didn't have to because it really wasn't, and 2) the room layout wasn't optimal, though the room itself was very good, I found it was small and could have been made better.

The price is right

The hotel was a little run down and the parking cost alot, but just two blocks from Waikiki beach this place is a bargan

Good location, at a good price

The hotel is a bit run-down but still OK. Room was clean. I was given a room on my first night, which had a very noisy air-conditioner. However, it did not bother me since I was so tired. The next day, on returning to the room in the afternoon, I discovered that the conditioner was not working. I reported this at the front desk, and was quickly given another clean room with a quite conditioner. The room was quite from indoor and outdoor noise. It is 2 blocks from the Waikiki beach, and close to some good restaurants and other tourist stuff. Would strongly consider staying again on my next trip to Honolulu. If you want an inexpensive, safe place to store your stuff, and a clean, quite place to sleep, this Hotel is a good choice.

It was an OK deal for me

Good price. Good location. Average service. Not everything in the room was clean but not surprisingly bad either for the price. Lower level rooms facing the ocean side are noisy due to busy traffice on the street.

Great price of ocean view very near the beach

Although this is an older hotel and does not offer the luxury of a much more expensive hotel, it is value for the rate that is charged. I was amazed that the ocean-view room we had requested actually had an ocean view rather than a view of a taller hotel which had the ocean view. Our room was located on the 17th floor and overlooked the street that lead to the beach, giving us a very good view of the beach and the ocean.

Great location, great price

This was the cheapest hotel in Honolulu but ended up being well worth the price. The place had been renovated and there were some amaneties that I didn't expect in such a budget hotel ... hair dryer, nice fridge, tv, ironing board and iron, free WI-FI in the entire hotel, etc. It is in an excellent part of Waikiki, just two short blocks up from the beach and lots and lots of great eating places and grocery stores within 3-5 min walk. I would recomment this hotel.

For the price...you can't beat it...

I was on Oahu for a Longboard,surf competition..this hotel was in direct line to the contest site..perfect..the staff was courteous...the rooms were small but clean...hey...you got more for your buck..the price was right...I'd recommend it.Aloha,Danny M.

Great location and value

The hotel is in one of the best locations. It is right behind the Hyatt Regency towers, so it's only about one block to the beach. Right near all the shops, restaurants and International Market. The price is very low and for a few buck more, you can get an ocean view. Don't be fooled by one of the larger hotels that is way off the beach and away from shopping. The front desk needs a little training regarding acknowledging guests when they walk by the desk, rather than lowering their heads and ignoring.

Outstanding Staff

I was on a tight budget which the Aqua Continental met... and the staff members were VERY cordial and helpful. I was surprised that some of the needed "fixables" had been painted over (literally), but I found the experience overall good because of the staff and the budget. I also had a kitchette in my room which would have been nice to know about in my planning... nice surprise theough! I didn't have the time to check out teh spa or the pool features, but next time I will. All was clean and welcoming.
