Goos hotel
Great location, friendly staff, accommodated our request for rooms next to each other at a high floor, relatively clean hotel, comfy beds, pool was closed and only available between 5pm and 10pm during spring break which seems not well planned

Our check-in was wonderful. Our checkout was wonderful. The pool was wonderful, but our ice machine was broken on our floor so that ticked me off.

Just Okay
The staff and management are very friendly. I was not told in advance that the pool was going to be closed during the day on my first three days at the property. On top of that, they charged a $30/day resort fee, which should have been credited back for the days the pool was not available. There's nothing else resort related offered at this property.

Budget Friendly Hotel
Lobby and front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately we did not receive maid service as promised, every other day. Don’t eat at Ihop, way overpriced and not great. Way better options in the area. Would recommend the hotel though and would return.

Week in paradise
Great stay for the cost. Tub/Shower very clean, sink faucet had small leak onto counter. Automated coffee machine in lobby was free but slow and cumbersome. Front desk graciously allowed local relative to park for free when visiting us. Small balcony was great for morning coffee.

Pleasantly surprised by the balcony overlooking Ala Moana. We could even see the ocean with sailboats from our balcony. Parking is a bit expensive but i guess that's to be expected with the limited space in Honolulu. The hotel is close to stores and restaurants. Nice pool. Small bathroom. Showing its age but i would stay there again.

Had to stay one extra day in Honolulu and the aqua palms was perfect! Clean, comfy and great location. Bathroom shower could use a little upgrade but other than that it was great!

Nice place to stay in Oahu
2 nights stay before my cruise trip. The location is very convenient to access the beach, shopping mall and cruise terminal. There is supermarket just next to the door, you grab food as your breakfast or dinner which is very good price.

I liked the privacy and ease of access where the guest can go from the parking garage to their room in relative privacy. The housecleaning staff assigned to room was also very helpful.
