|
15. Also the small room air conditioners, whilst effective generated more than their fair share of noise.
|
16. Rooms are well appointed and the one we had had a small kitchenette which proved handy.
|
17. Comfortable room, with balcony, but rather small and unfortunately we faced the street so noise was a problem, as were the balconies from the hotel across the street.
|
18. Although it seemed clean enough, it was quite a small room with two double beds (only two of us could have our suitcases open at the same time at any given time and still have room to walk around).
|
19. The bathroom was small, barely any counter space, and only room for a shower - which leaked at the bottom of the door.
|
20. Rooms are on the small side, but modern and well maintained.
|
21. This is a typical vacation hotel, small rooms (I was upgraded to a 'deluxe' which was tiny - I can't think what a normal sized room would have been like), although nicely appointed with everything you could want.
|
22. Room was small but clean.
|
23. The bathroom was a little small for being a 'superior' room but we managed.

|
35. Cons:*Standardized rooms are fairly small, as other reviewers have stated.

|
|
|
44. The room was small but had everthing you needed.
|
45. The hotel was booked so we were offered an upgrade later in the week for a small upcharge, but, we were never in the room anyway as we had a rental car and left for other parts of the island early in the morning.
|
46. The standard room bathrooms and shower stalls were small especially for my 6 foot 4 inch husband but, again, we were hardly in the room and for the value and location, we would return but choose a 1 bdroom suite.
|
47. The rooms are small and were not cleaned well.

|
64. There was a small refrigerator in the room - we didn't use it, but it's a nice thing to have.
|
65. Despite the small room, it was sufficient, and the room rate was good for Waikiki, I think.

68. Reminded me of smaller European type rooms, except the room I had had a small fridge and microwave.

|
72. We got the deluxe room which is the larger room and it was very small.
|
73. Yes, the room is small, definitely not ideal for a family, but as a single traveler or couple, this hotel is perfect.
|
74. The rooms are small and there is noise from the outside, but if you know ANYTHING about Waikiki, you should know that is to be expected no matter where you stay.

|
76. Business travelers beware - many of the rooms (like room 1215) don't even have desks because the rooms are so small.
|
77. The room was really small, so much so that having a large suitcase on either side of the bed will keep you from walking on that side of the room.

|
79. This one barely fit the bed and dresser, and the small table made the room cramped.
|
80. The room we were in was small, which wasn't a big deal for our short stay, but I wouldn't want to be stuck in it for more than a day or two.
|
81. The room:- Was ridiculously small with a poor paint job- Had scratched furniture - probably due to limited room to get around the bed- Had a dodgy airconditioner blowing damp only slightly cooler air - temp adjustment removed- Had a broken balcony door latch - replaced with a metal pin though a couple of drill holes- Smelt mouldy- Had no ventillation in the bathroom - rust starting to appear- Had a poorly designed shower- Had towels that smelt sour - obviously reception blamed housekeeping not the dodgy airconditioner or lack of ventilationFor what was supposed to be a relatively new hotel, we found this very poor.
|
82. Both rooms were fairly small, however bed was comfortable and the room was clean.
|
83. Other reviews are correct about the rooms being small, but do you really spend that much time in your room in Oahu.
|
84. The Courtyard has very small rooms.
|
85. I spent only one night - I left next morning to Marriott - the only reason was that rooms were too small (I need extra space I dont'l like small rooms) therefore apart from that I have no negative comments on this hotel - it's all positive and most of the staff kindness - I was there a month after the the change of ownership before it used to be called Wayland Waikiki and was run by Outrigger then they changed to Marriott.
|
86. Our room had a type of small kitchenette, with a microwave, refrigerator and coffee pot.
|
87. The vanity in the bathroom is the smallest that I have _ever_ seen, when a man doesn't have enough room for his bathroom gear you know how small it is.
|
88. You can clearly see the cable running under the carpeting across the room, you then get to the desk (really a small round table) and the carpet just has a slit and the cable appears.
|
89. The kitchenette consists of a mini fridge, a small sink (like a wet bar) and a microwave (I managed a Holiday Inn Express and we had these in ALL of our rooms), when I think of kitchenette I think of a stove and pots and pans, etc..

130. Our room had a small kitchenette (microwave, coffee maker, small fridge), silverware and plates for 2 - which is also a very nice touch.
|
131. A couple of minor negatives was the rooms are quite small to other rooms we have had during our world trip, and if you are staying on the main road side ask for a room as high as possible because the street noise can be uncomfortable late at night.
