1. And the furnishings are not modern and are a bit worn, however the location can't be beaten.

2. To be honest, it's a beautiful hotel that has just gotten to be really old and worn out.

3. We went to Waikiki for the first time on our 40th wedding anniversary and when we got in at 12am we took our rental car to the Aston Waikiki Beach hotel where we attempted to check in - but alas they had no reservation for us - checked with the Beach side and there we were so went over a block or two and checked in there - the first appearances were very disappointing , tiny room , tiny tv, worn furniture and the look of a beat down 30's or 40's style formerly grand hotel - we had a ocean view room on the 8th floor and as such had a lanai - but as with all things the place grew on us - right in the heart of Waikiki , within walking distance of the international market , ABC market right next door, Starbucks down the street and the beach across the street - although the rooms were a bit haggard they were clean ( no bugs ) and the beds were comfy - if they had wifi and a small breakfast it would have made things a bit better but the vale parking was super and we had a beautiful time exploring the paradise that is Hawaii.

4. First impression of the reception area of this hotel was nice, but we were given a room which was a superior room according to the receptionist, well when got to the room it was very small the door to the room and window had glass folded blinds which anyone could have opened as later a room maid who cleans the rooms opened to se if anyone was in the room, the room was dark very small, so we asked to be moved to another room and they found us another room of which was ok we had a patio door which opened to a balcony which had no view it just faced onto a side brick wall of the hotel, and the beds were tatty there was holes in the bace of the bed and stains, the furniture was tatty and worn the air condtioning unit was not working right it was cold all the timeso we had to turn the thing off at night and then we awoke during the early hours with the tempreture being too warm so we had to turn it back on it did not go on and off according to tempeture of the room.

8. I told him that was crazy because I was already paying $160 too much,My wife and I went to the room (801) and settled in for the night ,then we discovered that there was no hair drier, no bath mats ,no alarm clock, a missing soap dish in the shower , a bed that was totally worn out and the room looked like it was stripped out ,our view was blocked by a very large tree across the street.
