I had a nice experience at AQUA PALM WAIKIKI. The hotel is conveniently located near the beach and shopping areas, and the on-site dining at IHOP was a real plus. Although my room was on the smaller side and the check-in process was a bit chaotic, the overall value for money was good. The staff were friendly and helpful, but there was a noticeable lack of personnel during busy times, which made communication a bit challenging.

Our stay at the hotel was wonderful, with exceptional service and a truly inviting atmosphere. The location couldn't have been better, with easy access to the beach and shopping. The dining options were convenient, especially with IHOP right next door, but the dining experience could improve. The rooms were comfortable, but a little dated, which might not be ideal for some travelers. Overall, it offers great value for a family-friendly getaway.

I stayed at this hotel expecting a decent experience but was met with a mix of positives and negatives. While the location was surprisingly convenient and the rooms were quite clean and modern, I unfortunately faced multiple issues, especially with the service side of things. Overall, it's a decent place to crash if you're keeping an eye on your budget, but don't expect a hassle-free stay.
