The best hostel experience i've had to date. Staff are very nice and helpful - I was able to keep my bags in storage for a few hours before and after checkout. Inclusive and friendly group of people including the staff and all other people from the hostel. Will be back if i'm ever in town again.

Great location and Great Staff!

No lie, this place is within a block of Waikiki Beach and also near the Honolulu Zoo! Looking for affordability? This is the place to stay. Rented a bunk in the 4 female room and ended up with a small apartment sized unit which included a kitchen, too!

Close to the beach, lots of chairs, umbrellas, boogey boards to share. If they would just lose the basketball that everyone seems to like bouncing in the courtyard at odd hours of the day, it'd be perfect.

Good access to the beach and great experience of a few days stay. Could enjoy staying in the hostel room when I felt tired, and sometimes having relaxed time at the rest space on the 1st floor.

Not bad

First time staying at a hostel. It was quite an experience. I loved it. I slept on top of the bunkbed but it keeps on making a sound every time i move and felt bad for the lady sleeping at the bottom. I hope they fix that problem cause the place wasnt bad at all especially for the price.
