I had lots of bed bug bites and it seems that this hostel has such a problem in the past (read other reviews). Had there not been a bed bug problem, I would have rated this a five-star hostel. (Nice people, convenient location, and helpful services such as free checkout-day shower). More

The place is very central to public transportation, shops and the beach. The hostel is very clean and cosy. The stuff is just wonderful and extremly helpful. They have great coffee and toast in the morning and guided tours on Saturday. Thanks for the great time. More

The atmosphere was laid back and everyone sat around and enjoyed themselves... As... More

The friendly staff here seem to have all bases covered, everything that a backpacking traveller needs is taken care of even down to free storage on the last day.  I had a late flight from Honolulu at 11pm, and after a full day of sightseeing I was able to head back and pick up my luggage that they stored for...

This is the nicest hostel in Waikiki. Great layout, breezes, courtyard, friendly staff! Have stayed in 3 or 4 different hostels in the area and this one is the best. Others are in stuffy, noisy highrises where you just hear traffic. This one is in smaller buildings with lots of windows and fresh breezes! Location is right in the centre... More

We arrived late and although the room we booked wasn't immediately available, the staff worked to get us into our room. The room wasn't anything special but what do you expect in a hostel. The staff and owner took really good care of us. Plus there was Richard shot night, a staff member took out a bottle Of whiskey and... More

I have mixed feelings about this hostel. First, the good stuff: Great location. Very close to bus, motorcycle/scooter rental shop, and only a few blocks from the beach. And if you don't mind a longer walk uphil, Diamond Head is also walking distance, or a short bus ride away otherwise. The Hostel has quite hours after 11 pm (if I... More
