Clean, location is great, quiet, has everything you could possibly need for long or short staying. The main problems were internet (it was unstable and didn’t work from time to time) and ac (blowed too strong at the bedroom and was noisy)

Apartment had everything we needed. Location is fantastic and free parking is a bonus! We loved having beach towels, chairs and a cooler to bring to the beach. Nice touch! Shower was great, very good pressure. The management company is very responsive. I was impressed.
The only down side is that this building is showing its age. The elevators broke down 3x in the week we were there, necessitated long waits.
Other than that I would highly recommend this VRBO

Building is unassuming and a bit old (elevators are slow and one was out the whole time) but the unit was beautiful - the bed and couch were both very comfortable, everything was clean, and the view was pretty incredible. Lots of nice touches like plenty of bath and beach towels, beach chairs, and dishes if we wanted to cook or reheat food. The location cannot be beat. Highly recommend, would absolutely stay again.

Aloha, The unit, 812, was exactly as described online. It had a lovely view of the mountains to the left and you could see a piece of the ocean. The kitchen was fully equipped, beach chairs and towels are provided, and the customer service was excellent. The proximity of the building is only a short walk, 10 minutes, until your toes are in the sand. If I had to complain about anything, I would say to be patient during mid mornings and late afternoons waiting for the elevator, but I understand that this is not a reflection about the unit or the property management company. I would stay here again! Aloha!

We enjoyed our 4-night stay at this apartment, about 2 blocks from Waikiki Beach. We had a view of Diamond Head from our balcony; beach chairs, cooler, and beach towels were included. The king size bed was very comfortable. The property managers were very quick to answer any questions we had. There was an ABC store 1 block away for anything we forgot, and lots of restaurants in the area and along Waikiki Beach. Secure parking garage was appreciated. Would stay here again.

Really liked this property, located super conveniently close to the beach and park. I had my infant son and toddler daughter with me, we lii oh ced waking up in the morning and being in the beach within minutes. Apartment is super clean and has everything you need. The only thing is pull out couch is quite uncomfortable to sleep on. My parents came with me and slept rhere and said they had sore back in the morning. Bed in bedroom was comfy.

We stayed her for 3 mos so we know every detail. The advertised pictures represent the apartment very well. The only issue I had with our stay was the hallways are dated. You are relieved your room is much more modern and refreshing. The staff with Midway were responsive If I had a question and very good to work with. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely stay here again.
Note; something worth mentioning, the security team are some of the finest people we met there. Sometimes in there line of work they aren’t very friendly. These men and ladies do their job well and make you feelwelcome during your stay.

We stayed here for a couple weeks and the unit was great! Spacious, cute, clean, and when I needed to extend, they were very accommodating and responded quickly! Plus, just a block from the beach and laundry on each floor. The fact that parking was included is a huge plus. Thank you for having us!

We stayed here twice. Once in January and again in February. Ask them about a discount if you are a repeat renter. The apartment was ready upon arrival. Clean. It had all the items needed for a stay. It was stocked with towels, beach accessories, floor fans, all items needed to cook and wash dishes. Spacious enough for my husband and myself. It would be cramped with 4 adults. The sleeper sofa would work for young kids however I wouldn't sleep on it as an adult. I love the key code entry to the apartment. It is so much easier than carrying a key/card. It is in walking distance to Honolulu Zoo, Waikiki Aquarium, Waikiki Beach, Blue Note Hawaii, mall, restaurants, etc. We took Uber to/from the airport and it was around $30.00 each way. We rented a car while there in February through Enterprise which is located in the Marriott Hotel diagonal from Aston Waikiki Sunset. Note: We had issues with the internet and thought it was the modem sitting on the tv stand. It is not. It is on the kitchen counter next to the wall. (The paperwork in the ring binder needs to be updated.) We also lost power to the entire building while there. When it came on, the a/c had to be reset. We called the management company and it took a few phone calls for a maintenance person in the building to come to the apartment. It was reset quickly. We shared with management how it was resolved so next time maybe they can pass it along to the renter. There is a small grocery store on the 5th floor but it is expensive. We used Instacart and ordered groceries from the local Safeway. The trash chute for the floor is right next to the bedroom wall however we did not have issues hearing anything at night. We did during the day. If we were to stay in Waikiki again, we would definitely rent this apartment.

This property is in an amazing location! It is 2 blocks off of Queens beach in Waikiki. Secure building with parking included is very much appreciated. This suite is also 1/2 block walk from a biki bike station which is also very convenient for getting around Waikiki. Most of downtown is also within a 15 min walk. Apartment is very well equipped with all the amenities needed to cook for yourself. Would definitely recommend or come back to this VRBO!
