Ulu Pō Heiau State Monument

The bed was comfortable and the kitchenette was ample for cooking all the meals we did.

Don’t expect any early check in, check in is strictly at 4pm. Location was great being a block to the beach. While the hotel is older, the bathroom was clean, the bed was fine but needed newer pillows. They offer free coffee/tea in lobby and lend you beach chairs, towels for the beach. Staff was friendly and are there 24 hours. Stayed here for 2 nights after my cruise.

The room was gorgeous! Bravo for the elevated and tasteful decor. The exterior does need a little facelift here and there as it is an older hotel, but there is a "classic," old Hawaii charm about it. Bell Attendant was a bit pushy when we did not let him take our bags before check in - asking repeatedly - when guaranteed check in was only 30min out. Other than that, the staff at the Veranda was so nice and cheerful and dinner at Arancino was amazing. This is a great option to stay outside of Waikiki.
