But I'll note Sheraton and Moana are typically at least $50-100 more expensive than this place (closer to $100 for my nights). Guess you get what you pay for . . . I just wasn't interested in paying over $300 for a 14 hour stay. Hilton was a little cheaper, but I had the $40 AMEX offer for Marriott, which equalized the price plus there's the Marriott stay credit.
Didn't have to wait for breakfast. Most of the guests were school tour groups and I assume they did not have breakfast included in their group rates.
They have a new general manager. So, it will be interesting to see how this property changes, if at all.
Did you get the resort fee waived or an alternative replacement amenity included, @

If I was only in Honolulu for 14 hours and had a rental car, I might consider the Courtyard on the North Shore of Oahu, if I was staying loyal to Marriott. It's typically a lot cheaper than the Waikiki properties. Yes, it's on the North Shore, but it doesn't seem like you were in Honolulu for a Waikiki vacation.
