Holiday Inn Express WAIKIKI by IHG

The view from the window was okay, and it was a corner room. Don't be fooled by the 'newly renovated' claim; it's quite old, and still has a window air conditioner. Everything was pretty mediocre, and the breakfast was unappetizing. It's on par with a Hanting Hotel at a popular domestic tourist spot.

The room was decent, and the location was great. However, the window AC unit was really noisy. For the price, I can't really complain. The hotel breakfast was typical Western fare, but they did have rice.

The hotel's location is excellent, but the room was tiny. There were no slippers provided, which was quite uncomfortable for me walking around barefoot. The American breakfast was pretty terrible for a Chinese palate, and this hotel was no exception. Of course, as long as Americans like it, that's what matters, considering it's in the U.S. The hotel has its own parking lot, which costs $55 per night.

The hotel has a parking lot, a small gym, and a swimming pool, all fully equipped. There's even a small microwave in the room, which is quite convenient for heating up food. Shell and Foodhall are right next door, and it's less than a 5-minute drive away. Since it's a newly opened hotel this year, everything looks very new and clean, and it was indeed very well cleaned. There's even hand sanitizer next to the elevator, which is reassuring, haha. Driving to the airport the next morning only took about 20 minutes, very convenient. I recommend it for a short stay~

Great location, very close to the convention center and Waikiki is also not far. The soundproofing is excellent, and the price is very good value for money for Hawaii! The hotel's breakfast is also quite good.
