The hype
Great views and spacious rooms for the price, but the furniture is tired and the location is strictly business.
Aston Executive Center
$160-220 + taxes/fees/ ночь
Смело бронируйте, если You're a business traveler, court visitor, or island-hopper who needs a central crash pad with a kitchen and doesn't care about being on the beach.
Почему людям нравится
- Floor-to-ceiling windows with killer harbor or mountain views
- In-room kitchenettes (some with washer/dryers) save money
- Walking distance to Chinatown's epic food scene
Краткий обзор: A functional, slightly dated high-rise that feels more like a corporate apartment than a tropical resort.
Подтверждено @Jadesss: I wasn't sure about the retro decor at first, but the moment the sun set over the harbor, I was sold. Having a full kitchen in Honolulu was a total game-changer for my budget. It felt like a real home, not just a hotel room.
Гости, которые останавливались здесь, говорят
Reality check
The 'resort fee' ($30/night) feels like a slap in the face since the pool is basic and there's no restaurant.
- You need to be at the State Capitol or Federal Building at 8 AM
- You prefer cooking your own breakfast to paying $40 for a buffet
- You want to explore the gritty, authentic food scene of Chinatown
Чистота и уход
6.5
- Housekeeping: Service is every 3rd day (check current policy), often rushed. Missed dust in corners is common.
- Bathroom hygiene: Functional but dated. Grout often shows age/discoloration. Water pressure is usually good.
- Maintenance: Wear and tear is visible. Scuffed baseboards, peeling wallpaper, and older carpets are standard complaints.
- Linens & towels: Clean but basic. Don't expect plush Egyptian cotton; these are industrial hotel standard.
- Odors & scents: Hallways can smell musty or like stale smoke. Rooms are generally better but can retain humidity smells.

FAQ и советы
Всё, что вы действительно хотели бы знать перед бронированием.
Is there a pool?
Yes, on the 11th floor. It's unheated, basic, and closes at 9 PM. Don't expect a tiki bar.
How far is the beach?
Ala Moana Beach Park is a 10-minute drive/Uber. Waikiki is 15-20 minutes depending on traffic.
Is breakfast included?
No, and there's no operating restaurant on-site. Grab coffee at Honolulu Coffee at Bishop downstairs.
Can I walk to Waikiki?
Technically yes, but it's a long, hot 3-mile trek. Take the bus (TheBus) or an Uber.
Is the area safe at night?
It's safe enough, but desolate. The homeless population is visible. Stick to well-lit streets or take cabs after dark.
Does the room have a kitchen?
Yes, most have at least a kitchenette (fridge, microwave, wet bar). Executive suites often have cooktops.
Советы инсайдеров
- ✨
There is a 7-Eleven practically downstairs – it's the unofficial room service for late-night snacks.
- ✨
The bus stop right outside (Bishop St) is a major hub; you can get to Ala Moana or Waikiki easily for $3.
- ✨
Ask for a 'renovated' unit at check-in; the difference in carpet quality is night and day.
5 вещей, которые нужно знать перед поездкой
💡The elevators can be confusing – you take one from the street to the lobby (11th floor), then another to your room.
💡The 'Mountain View' is actually quite beautiful at night with the city lights up the valley, often quieter than the Harbor side.
💡You might smell your neighbor's dinner (or other herbs) through the vents.
💡The windows don't open in many rooms, so fresh air is limited to the AC system.
💡Security is actually quite tight – key card required for everything, which is reassuring in this neighborhood.
