    Nothing - this hotel is truly great value for money, and would highly recommend.

    We have stayed at this hotel at least 8 times over past 12 years. Having been upgraded recently when it became Wayfinder Waikiki, it is now of a fantastic.standard. Spacious rooms - all with large balconies; pool is one of the best - and location is brilliant. Great selection of TV channels, safe deposit box in each room, and a wonderful base to explore and enjoy Waikiki/ Honolulu from. Staff very obliging and helpful.

    Nice hotel with lots of charm and friendly staff. Parking at hotel is expensive. Room was a bit small for 2 people staying for a few days. Not much hanging space or storage so we kept our stuff mostly in our suitcases.

    Not well received upon check in. Not very welcoming and no information given about hotel. I had to discover what was available at the property bit by bit - often too late to take advantage of offerings

    Pool. It was overpriced.

    Nice clean rooms and hotel, with good air-conditioning and room decor. The pool was small, too far to take beach chairs to the beach. It was on the quiet side of town, but still nice and safe area.

    The hotel was so lovely, definitely a stand out throughout our stay. Unfortunately the pool was closed but we received complementary drinks at their bar and vouchers for nearby activities. The gym was small but very nice and well kept. They were so helpful with their little information pamphlets and activity board making sure you didn't miss any local activities.

    The Wayfinder Waikiki is a small, bespoke hotel with a unique vibe and boutique furnishings. The location was in a quiet area only blocks from the center of Waikiki beach. It was a nice change of pace from the crowded, oceanfront resorts. The poolside bar and restaurant had incredible happy hour prices and excellent food. We would come back for the Poke Nachos alone! The service staff was friendly and the bed was comfortable. Overall we had a great trip and enjoyed the many amenities the Wayfinder offered, including checking out a Go Pro for the day to video our adventures.

    Not a 4 star hotel (looks better in photos compared to reality). Building is old and noisy (you can hear sound from the street or elevator). Paid car parking of 45 USD per night.

    Good location (5min walk to the beach).

    Excellent location and reasonably priced, near a small supermarket, restaurants and the beach area. We were able to check in early after arriving from Honolulu airport. Having travelled from Australia this was much appreciated.

    The bath did not drain very well and the water built up whilst having a shower, up to calf level which was disappointing.

    Clean rooms, comfortable bed, bathroom small and getting dated. The pool and bar facilities were very good.

    This is the second time we stay here, I think we got a handicap room for some reason, there was no closet and it was kind of small, we didn't complain because it wasn't an issue but it was just something we noticed l. Our room only got partially cleaned 1/3 nights we stayed, we saw cleaning staff in other rooms every day, but I'm not sure if they only clean after check out, we got more toilet paper & clean towels per request. And they took the trash the second night per request as well. Other than that, staff was very nice, friendly & helpful.

    Little bit further from the beach.

    What a lovely time we enjoyed at the Wayfinder for our recent holiday. While is was a little way back out of the main Waikiki area (only a short walk) the facilities and the staff were amazing. We especially enjoyed the Redfish, delightful food and a great atmosphere. Thoroughly recommend this accommodation experience and would stay here again for sure.

    The room had a door to the room next doors. Because of that the sound isolation was very poor. I could hear every step and every sound our neighbours were making.

    Location was excelent, not too far from Waikiki but not too close to that loud area. The room was very nice, we had the corner balcony which is really big.
