Week in paradise
Great stay for the cost. Tub/Shower very clean, sink faucet had small leak onto counter. Automated coffee machine in lobby was free but slow and cumbersome. Front desk graciously allowed local relative to park for free when visiting us. Small balcony was great for morning coffee.

Pleasantly surprised by the balcony overlooking Ala Moana. We could even see the ocean with sailboats from our balcony. Parking is a bit expensive but i guess that's to be expected with the limited space in Honolulu. The hotel is close to stores and restaurants. Nice pool. Small bathroom. Showing its age but i would stay there again.

Perfect location and economical
Had to stay one extra day in Honolulu and the aqua palms was perfect! Clean, comfy and great location. Bathroom shower could use a little upgrade but other than that it was great!

Nice place to stay in Oahu
2 nights stay before my cruise trip. The location is very convenient to access the beach, shopping mall and cruise terminal. There is supermarket just next to the door, you grab food as your breakfast or dinner which is very good price.

It seemed to have large families in and out of the hotel. I am led to believe they have larger rooms to accommodate 5 adults and 2 children.

Great location!
What I like the most about the hotel is the location. It's close to the lagoon and the beach and is convenient to get to and from.The building is relatively older but is well mantained. The staff was friendly and helpful. Parking was difficult because one has to drive up the building and you better be a good driver, or else you will hit the building columns as it is tight!! So definitely not for people who are not good drivers parking in the building.
