Oahu trip

Unit is a good size for a couple- close to everything which is nice!! Tight with kids. Limited towels. Parking would’ve been a nightmare had a staff member not come out and explained it to us so thank you Joe!! Nice and clean. A/c unit needs to be replaced, barely cooled room. I am always cold but it was quite warm here. Safe area and safe property.
One thing that can be an issue is checking in. No where to park and you have to go into the lobby to retrieve keys but as I mentioned, we had help so that made all the difference here. Otherwise, I would’ve ended up with a migraine because that’s just me!

Excellent location!

Just what was expected! I would definitely stay again!

Awesome location!

Walking distance to lots of great shopping and restaurants. Parking spot is a life saver for my rental car. Bed was very comfortable. Would definitely stay again.

"Amazing location, private access, and private parking spot under building. Room was relatively clean. 9.1/10 overall rating! I would stay again! Check in: Getting the keys/ parking was a little tricky, but once you do it for the first time, you memorize it for the trip. Location: Heart of Waikiki, plenty of food and shops just downstairs, great views from the UNIT as well. Laundry: Stayed a week, so had to do laundry, laundry room was very close (same floor/hallway near room) - was easy and clean! (You buy your own soap and pay with a laundry card you can reload downstairs) Sleeping: Based on the reviews I expected the loud busy streets but around 10:30-12 everything dies down outside so had no trouble sleeping, plus AC was a little loud but did not bother me at all. Bed and sofa bed were comfortable, just make sure to put some flat sheets over the sofa bed. Cleanliness: Everything looked clean but when you get closer you notice some dirty spots like, around the microwave, or the vent in the bathroom, or even the AC unit. It didn’t bother me too much just pointing it out. Parking: Nice big spaces, and the designated spot was easily accessible! Only thing I would say for others to watch out is it is a (6 foot clearance for vehicles!) Overall would stay again, very affordable and great location! I felt very safe in the building, because of its “key access only” feature. I just wish there was more than ONE key fob…. Notes: Buy shampoo and conditioner, and laundry soap…"

Terry was an excellent host. Check in and check out was a breeze. Had no idea how great the location was when we booked. I will definitely stay here again!

"Thank you for sharing your listing with us ! We have stayed at marine surf before and I’m glad we decided to stay again! During our stay they did have a portable single electric stove that worked great for us! Cut the cost of eating out every meal , especially breakfast for us. The walk is about 1 block or so from public access to the beach and I walked to Honolulu coffee every morning ( delicious lattes ) Location is great. Waikiki beach, restaurants, etc. It can get loud on the weekends but it’s what you get for prime Realestate in Waikiki. Would definitely stay again !"

Location, location, location and free parking. Perfect base from which to explore the island during the day and then come back, freshen up and enjoy the sunset, shops, restaurant and bars to complete the night. Place was clean when we arrived. Did not come with toiletries (shampoo, conditioner, body wash) as indicated in the listing, only two small hotel bars of soap. But we brought our own so no issues. Light sleepers should come prepared with ear plugs, but we didn't mind and after a long day out in the sun had no problem sleeping through it. Host was excellent at communication and checked in to make sure everything was going smooth. Great budget option for travelers who don't want/need the "resort" experience.

"We had a wonderful stay at Terry’s Place. Location is incredible. just steps away from the shops, restaurants and short walk to waikiki beach. its in central waikiki. The free assigned parking is a huge plus. Checking in and out was so easy as Terry provided us a brief instructions beforehand. The room size is perfect for family of 3 and it comes with the basic stuffs you need. We will definitely be back."

We love the location and parking spot, only 5’ walk to Waikiki center and the beach. Many restaurants and shops are close as well. Communication with Terry is quick and helpful. Like others said, there are noises at night due to the location is right in the center of Waikiki, but not a big deal to us since we spent most of the time outside. If you only need a place to sleep, this is a great value, very convenient.

"Pros: good location, convenient parking spot in covered parking garage, higher floor helps with street noise Cons: cleanliness (roaches in the unit), basic toiletries not included (soap to wash hands, sponge to clean dishes) Note: this unit is OK for brief stays but would be insufficient for longer stays."
