"Good location, old Hotel and room was barely inhabitable. My laptop screen was larger than my TV and very uncomfortable and non-supportive beds.

You pay $20 a night for parking for a hotel with 200 rooms so its 1st come, or you park several blocks away and walk but they still charge you.

I will never use this Hotel again!!!"

"I enjoyed my stay and I owe alot of it to the conceirge service. The woman was a life save,. She made this 5 day stay truly amazing by expertly planing or activities.We were able to get so much done in such a short period of time, My five day stay felt more like 2 weeks.I would definitely return to Aqua Pearl for any of my future stays in Waikiki."

"First, let me say that the employees were really great and welcoming. We had no issues with our reservation or getting into our room. Great location. You are right across the street from the International Marketplace, which made us feel like we were in the heart of Waikiki. A couple of blocks from the beach. Starbucks (not that good) within steps and ABC stores, for incidentals, every half block.

Room was fairly clean and was good sized, with outside entrance. Microwave, refrigerator and safe were nice extras. The main complaint was noise, or to be more specific, closing of doors. When the neighbors closed their doors, it seemed to be inches from you and shake the entire room. We were awakened several times during our stay with the sound of shutting doors. We didn't really hear people in their rooms and didn't hear a ton of external noises (except for the doors) until 5:30 or 6:00am. For those who value watching TV on vacation (just saying), this is not the place. Elevators were slow. We were on the 3rd floor so just took the steps most of the time.

The Pearl is fine for what it is. It is a budget hotel in a great location. We chose to spend our money on skydiving rather than on a nicer hotel and the Pearl certainly served that purpose. Some people aren't familiar with it so if you are in a Taxi or Shuttle, just tell them to go to Ohana West.

"A great - good value Hotel that just lacks a Pool to make it the perfect choice to stay. We had a free room upgrade, without asking, and the room was enormous with great views from the balcony and great windows (western and southern aspects). Good location right next to the International Market place."

"Everybody was very nice to us, and they tried to please us. But it was not the type of hotel we were hoping for What we really wanted. and we were willing to pay the price. Of course it was too late after we got there, so we made the best of the situation"

"The best thing about this hotel is it's staff. We stayed for 8 nights, had our wedding and spent our honeymoon. The concierge, was awesome and is truly the 'pearl' of the hotel. She was extremely friendly and helpful. Our room was huge and clean, small tv far from the bed, and an extreme lack of towels. Housekeeping would take our towels during the day, but not leave any fresh ones. Four of our nights, we had to request bath towels. The location is great and is in the center of everything, unfortunately that also means noise. There's a bar on the main floor and the patrons are out on the sidewalk at all hours of the night. We were only 3 stories up. I would suggest you try for a higher floor and maybe face the parking lot instead of the street. We had a huge lanai, but never sat on it or even left our slider open. People across the street could see directly into our room and the street noise was too intense to be enjoyable. We found that the best time to sleep was between 4am-6:30am (after the bar closed and before the delivery/garbage trucks came). We are planning our next trip to Waikiki and are going to spend a little more in the hopes of getting a quieter hotel."

"The hotel is OK considering the price I paid. They clean the room every day, but change the sheets every 3 days. I don't really like that. The air conditioner is very loud. I only turned it on when I left the room. However, the location is awesome. It is close to everying, such as the beach, shops, restaurant, bars and so on. The staff are very friendly. They have a person in the hall to help you book out activities. She is very helpful. Overall, I recommend this hotel to anyone who wants to save money on the trip. Otherwise, there are many other wonderful hotels in that area which offer the same friendly services and much nicer rooms."

"Good family, friendly, budget hotel. Good service, whenever we requested anything it was always handled on time by very friendly staff. The location is good, very close to the beach and restaurants and everything else. The weather could have been a little better, not so windy, but what can I say February. Our family enjoyed the stay very much. Thank you!"

"Gotta give it to them, the staff was incrediably friendly and polite. The hotel has beach towels available which is nice to have available at all times, you just return it in their lobby hampers after each use and advice them of such so they take you off the list. The hotel aswell has a laundry on site, great for drying up clothes before your trip back home. In the main lobby, they have a concierge service lady who books activities for you, she gives her own personal advice as well and does not treat you diffrently if you're on a budget. She even helped me check in on my flight and printed our boarding passes, saving us time at the airport :) When we arrived at the hotel it was about 2 hrs before check in, they gave us an upgrade for free and allowed us to go right in. The room looked just like the pictures nothing less nothing more. Housekeeping was right on time everyday and did a wonderful job, the only thing i would suggest is brginging your own pillow. On the day that we left i noticed stains on the pillow i had slept on the night before...no they were not caused by me... but overall i would definately return and book with the same hotel, great staff, great service, right in the heart of waikiki, everything is so close -walking distance- couldn't have asked for more."

"This hotel was great! Location is great! I loved that after a certain time...they lock the doors n need a hotel card to get in. This made me feel secure n safe. I would def come back.

Only down falls were that there were only 2 elevators but one was broken so my bf n I always used to stairs to the 4th floor n that the tv in the room was very small with no remote! Lastly..there's NO WIFI

Other than that...great! "
