Short walk to the main Waikiki shopping strip and the International MarketplaceConsNOT ON THE BEACH (beach is about one and a half blocks from hotel - easily accessible, but it's not ON the beach)Parking at the Embassy Suites Waikiki Beachwalk will cost you around thirty dollarsShallow kiddie pool is directly next to the deeper five foot end of the pool instead of the three foot end - a small child can EASILY climb over the edge of shallow pool side and fall into deep water (dumb design)No Disney channel - only NickelodeonOur room faced another hotel - the view was not great, though I think the upper floors on the other side of the hotel faced the ocean and might have partial viewsThe traffic from outside was a bit loud, but not too bad when the sliding glass doors on the patios were closed.
