It was overall a clean space, right near the water. There were some bug issues. The women I spoke with during my time there were amazing.

Privately owned rooms. More like an air bnb.. the staff for our room was great. One of the lobby attendants was horrible. Parking is a commodity so make sure to call the property and book that immediately otherwise options are scarce and very expensive. The zoo is right across the street and most restaurants are pretty good.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Castle! The room came equipped with a view of the ocean, Diamond Head, and the Honolulu Zoo. We were walking distance from the ABC store and Waikiki beach and about 1/2 a mile from the International Marketplace for some light shopping and an array of restaurants facing the beach. The AC was amazing and came in clutch especially at night. The kitchenette was well equipped for cooking, and the room came with snorkel gear, beach chairs, and a beach umbrella. I feel like it was well worth staying here and would definitely recommend this to anyone I know.

I didn’t realize that this was partially an apartment building that they rented rooms out of. The room wasn’t very clean, even though they charge $250 cleaning fee, which is ridiculous. And there were roaches.

The plus it was close to Waikiki Beach: 5 minute walk. The cons- no service to the room- no cleaning. Could only change our bath and beach towels every two days. The room has a ‘balcony window’ but sealed shut. Also extremely thin as if they were open and could hear every car, truck, and motorcycle drive by. I booked the room because it has a kitchenette, however every thing in the kitchen is old and a plug in heat burner for the stove. I chose to eat out instead use the dirty, outdated kitchen. The only thing that worked well was the air conditioning and the shower. The bed had an old mattress and older bedding. The entire room looked like a 50 year old version of the photo online and was disappointing.

The room was located in a great place next to the beach in Waikiki. The only downside was no blackout curtains, so the city lights kept the entire room very bright overnight

Not at all like advertised. Had to go to a different hotel room just for a code to access the property. Very dingy falling apart. There was an AC unit but a vent in the bathroom was blowing hot air which cancels out the ac.

I reserved an "ocean view" room...the Ocean view was from the lanai looking around the wall, or through a mirror on the opposite wall--more than a bit misleading. I was a late arrival, but the check-in for this property evidently closed at 11:00 P.M. We were able to get in by checking in with the neighboring property, but they weren't sure which parking spot I'd be assigned. Since everything was electronic, all of the relevant info could have been sent beforehand.

This suite was far better than we excpected! The staff was friendly and was nice enough to store our bagse before check-in and after the checkout, and let us check-in a bit earlier.
The suite itself was nice, big kitchen and just a bigger suite in general for what we're used to. The view from the terrace in front of the room was absolutely amazing! Worth every penny!

Surprise cleaning fee $159 up front! Unknown to me. Restaurant/bar is 21+ only (did not advertise that before I booked) I have 8?yr old child with me. Also pool was not open due to construction (also not disclosed before I booked). Then was asked to move to another room shortly after settling in. Evening front desk clerk Jonathan was very rude and out of line!!
I actually rate my experience a big fat zero! Also was not disclosed that the var Hulas is a gay bar!
