4. My advice is to choose another hotel because the Waikiki area itself is a wonderful area to vacation and you don't want to stay in a bad hotel.

5. It was my partner's first time overseas and I didn't want it to be the last by choosing bad accommodation.

7. The room itself was badly in need of updating, it basically looked like an 1980's motel room - more what I would have expected from a Best Western than a Westin, the bathroom even had a jade colored plastic moulded sink vanity.

8. The most important part of this stay (aside from the beach and really, who can say anything bad about the beautiful beaches of Waikiki) was the First Lady tea service at their ocean front restaurant.
