WGH 701 · Studio Sleeps 3 w/ Full Kitchen

WGH 701 was a studio with a kitchen. The entire room was clean and comfortable, including the kitchen and bathroom. The room came with more than enough towels in a variety of sizes. The stovetop didn’t heat up, so I used the portable induction cooktop I found on top of the refrigerator. The laundry room in the basement parking lot was accessible, clean, and safe. The hotel is right across from Honolulu Zoo and within walking distance of an ABC store and Kuhio Beach. However, the area didn’t feel very safe. Sometimes, I felt unsafe and uncomfortable having to walk from Kalakaua Ave to the hotel because of the number of homeless people. Another downside to this place: the night I arrived, the front desk person was unprofessional and became apathetic and rude when I called the person out for their unprofessionalism. Most of the staff at the hotel were helpful and polite, but there’s room for improvement at the Waikiki Grand Hotel.
