  • Great location for one night stay with on-site restaurant. WiFi in lobby worked well.
  • Trip to roof to discover, no pool.

“The Ohana Waikiki Malia was a good choice as it was clean, comfortable, quiet and had an on-site restaurant so we could eat our breakfast before catching our shuttle to the airport. You can walk to the beach but the free trolley was an extra bonus that enabled us to go to Ala Mona Shopping Mall. We didn't need to rent a car which was good as traffic can be a headache. The staff was friendly and eager to help, greeting us as we came to the door and quickly getting us settled in. Everything else was within walking distance with plenty of restaurants and shops close by. A great way to unwind after a long flight, giving us an opportunity to get a jump on our two week stay on other islands. Although a little shop worn, I would recommend this to those who want to make a short stay at a good price.”

  • Close to nearby shopping, food.
  • Old fashioned dated rooms.

“Hotel was resonalbly priced, friendly hotel staff. Internet was available in the lobby free of charge, in the room for a fee. Overall a good value.”

  • Centrally located.
  • Service was awful.

“I book a non smoking room, the staff gave me a smoking room. It was not until I yell and scream before they care to transfer me, talked to 3 different person.”

  • Outstanding employee staff for information, needs and friendly staff.
  • Hard beds, cheap carpets and cheap furniture. The TV was commercial sales oriented and very limited selections of programs.

“The location for price was good, with an excellent staff on duty at all times. The room fixtures need updating and upgrading along with the mattress and carpet. The cleaning personnel did an excellent job each day considering the facilities. I would consider this a 2star at best, considering physical facilities.”

  • It was in a good location for the area.
  • Access to parking to hotel and from hotel lobby.

“It was an older hotel and the elevator service was not particularly good. Had to wait a long time for the elevators. The area in Waikiki had a lot of one way streets which made getting to the parking garage difficult. Also, getting to the parking garage from the room or lobby made you go from one elevator to another elevator.”

  • Roof deck was nice and the views from the rooms were good but staff was excellent!
  • We were not notified by the staff that we could use other Ohana hotels amenities such as the pools.

“The hotels location was great! Right in the middle of everything for a great price. It would have been nice to know that Ohana lets all its guests use other Ohana hotels pools and facilities. We found out on the last day.”

  • The staff was very nice and accommodating.
  • There was no swimming pool. How would I know there is no swimming pool if I don't have that option? You charge me too much for what you gave me.

“I am an Oahu resident. We look for swimming pools when we stay in a hotel. The rate you gave me was more than the kamaaina rate. You should have put me in something better and with a swimming pool. We overlooked a very bad neighbor's rooftop. Not knowing what you are getting is a bad policy. I'll never do that again. Too scary.”

  • There was a refrigerator, so we could store food.
  • The beds are incredibly uncomfortable!

“Fairly expensive for what you would get other places in the country but I guess that is Hawaii for you. Very uncomfortable beds but the room was clean and the staff was friendly.”

  • Close to the Waikiki Beach.
  • The beds were not comfortable and parking garage had a steep incline that likely causes many accidents.

“Hotel was fine for one night stay because of its close distance to Waikiki beach, but I would not stay longer than 2 nights.”

  • Clean room; friendly and helpful staff.
  • Older hotel with renovations needed such as more outlets in room and better parking situation.

“Reasonably priced, comfortable and clean place to stay in central Waikiki.”

  • Appreciated security of hotel - only guests with keys could use elevator to get to rooms.
  • Hotel a little runs down.

“For the price that hotels are in the Honolulu area, we got the hotel at a fair price. Hotel was clean but could use some freshening up. Appreciated use of the pink trolley line that went with the room - used quite a bit to get around for shopping.”

  • Friendliness of the front desk staff was great!
  • Room had that humid-musty smell even with the a/c on. It is an older hotel, so don¿t expect things to be new. Don¿t have there own pool.

“Overall, this hotel is a good value for what I bid. It is an older hotel with comfortable bed/pillows. Parking is quite expensive (as is any other hotel in Waikiki). I did find street parking along ala way canal street (a few blocks away). My hotel room was on the 17th floor, I could still hear street noises but it wasn't enough to keep me up at night. Front desk staff was extremely pleasant.”

  • I liked the fact that the hotel was convenient to the beach and shops.
  • I did not like the smell of the hotel rooms. And I did not like that the lobby was not decorated with nice pictures.

“This hotel was great for the price.”

  • Location. At the end of the day, you are in Waikiki.
  • Untrained staff; poorly serviced rooms; very much noise; poor beds.

“Clearly an old hotel trying to squeeze a few more dollars out of tourists before gutting and renovating. Don't think the renovation can come early enough.”

  • This hotel is located within walking of shopping, dining and bus line.
  • This hotel has a lot of mold build up in it. I have been sick due to the smell and odor of it.

“This hotel is an older hotel and has many stains on the carpet which is damp and old. The smell in the hotel about gags you. They do not clean your room everyday. They just make the bed and leave clean towels. I do not think this hotel should be open, as the mold is in the old carpet and you can see it in the sinks in your room.”
