This is our second time staying at the Aloha Surf. It isn't fancy at all but it is comfortable and clean. The staff is super helpful and friendly. It's location on the Ala Wai canal makes it a very quiet place to stay but it is only one block from the action on Kuhio and three blocks from the beach. We didn't rent a car this trip so it was nice to be so close to the bus stops on Kuhio. If you are looking for a resort experience don't stay here but if you are looking for a place to sleep after a long day of fun on Oahu this is the place to stay.

I will get the only positive part of my experience out of the way first. The concierge was the nicest person I’ve ever met. That was it. We were swayed by low rates for this hotel. (~$400 for 7 nights). After all the taxes it came out closer to ~$750 dollars. Still a really good deal for 7 nights in downtown Honolulu on Waikiki strip. When we checked in the the first night we realized we were staying in something worse than a motel six but paying twice as much. We decided it wasn’t worth it and we would pay double what we payed to stay somewhere else. Checkout and cancellation was smooth until the debit hit my account. Over $200 dollars in hidden fees for staying one night. It literally can’t get worse than paying $125 dollars for a cleaning fee where we didn’t even do anything other than use the bed to sleep in. Not to mention a $65 dollar “room charge” like we didn’t already pay for the room ??? All in all I dropped 300 dollars to stay in a rundown, wanna be motel 6 for one night. If you thought that was bad enough, they have the nerve to ask for $30 dollars a night for parking underneath the hotel that holds 15 cars max for a hotel that I would assume could have well over 200 people in one night. Never again would I pick this place to stay, even if they offered me to stay there free.

This is an older building and not fancy but it is clean and comfortable and the staff were very friendly and caring. It was perfect for my post-travel self-quarantine and came to feel like home away from home.

Of all the places in Waikiki I could have picked to stay at, I made the mistake of choosing this hotel. The rooms were gross, the furniture was stained beyond belief, I had to put a towel down on the couch before I sat on the crusty cushions. Security is a joke, my car and another were broken into in the hotel parking garage and the "guard" had no clue it happened and provided barely any help. The rooms were not cleaned during our stay because of covid, even though every other hotel was still providing maid service although they did take out the trash if you left it outside of your room. I will never recommend this hotel to anyone and I will never stay anywhere near this place if I ever return to Waikiki.

This hotel is affordable and clean and staff are helpful! It’s small and doesn’t have many amenities, but we were just looking for a place to sleep and rest as we spent the days out exploring the island. If you’re looking for amenities or a fancy place to stay this is not for you, but if you need a good and affordable place to stay this is a great choice!

The rooms are newly renovated .The linens are clean. The hotel is just across Waikiki Beach and Hawaiian Village with many restaurants to choose from. It is also located a few blocks from Ala Moana shopping mall where there are also a lot of restaurants. For a boutique hotel, it had all the convenience offered for a restful night and convenience of a block distance from Waikiki beach. Depending on the reservation , youmay have a room with a great view of the Diamond head and partial ocean view all in one balcony. I highly recommend staying here for those who would like to stretch their budget, have extra dollars to spend for vacation needs and leisurely activities on top of hotel room fees. It makes vacation to Hawaii more fun and enjoyable.

A larger sign to indicate the location of the hotel. We had to drive around the block to maneuver the driveway. Also notice in advance to say that you would need to drive into the garage to check in. The room was very clean and comfortable but the pool was directly below our sliding door and even with the door closed and locked we could still hear the other guests laughing and playing marco polo in the poo;.

Just missing a restaurant for the breakfast and diner. I had a room on the main street which can be noisy sometimes. Otherwise great location for a really good price. I will come with my family the next time.

Me and my fiancé went to Waikiki for a family vacation a week ago. While staying at the AP we saw and killed 4 roaches in our room! The hotel appeared to be old and gave motel vibes, not as we expected. This was our first time in Hawaii and the hotel just didn’t meet our expectations.

We booked a partial view not realizing we would literally be able to see a very small view across the street between other hotels of the ocean. As someone stated in an earlier comment the hallway is slanted and weird and the rooms were a little dated. The carpet in our room had a red stain in it (hopefully it wasn't blood). Last, the morning of checkout, the sanitation workers came at day break to dump the toilets in the receptacle and woke us up. The sight of the toilets and soiled mattresses when you walk by the hotel which is on the maintain strip was a eyesore; there must be a better way to hide the trash prior to trash day.

Congratulate yourself on having found the perfect hotel for you and your family. This is by far the best hotel I've ever stayed in. All staff (especially Cindy) treated us like royalty. Housekeeping does an amazing job. Room is heavenly. Spacious and well equipped with everything you might need including a full kitchen,washer and dryer, private furnished balcony and just steps from a gorgeous beach. All that plus free parking, pool, hot tub and outdoor grilling area.

We reserved the 2 bedroom/2 bathroom Ocean view unit and it was definitely worth it! The unobstructed view from the huge lanai and the full window screen doors from the master bedroom provide an incredible view, whether it be unwinding for the day, or waking up to it. With some covid restrictions and inconveniences during our mid-Aug stay, the lanai provided a great place to dine in. The spacious living room and dining room, the fully equipped kitchen and washer/dryer made for an incredible stay. The hotel is more of a condo hotel, so it doesn't have the huge welcoming lobby. The lobby was quite small and undergoing renovation while we were there. The staff was incredible, providing welcome beach bag, with water bottles for all the guests, as well, as beach toys for the kids, and topped off with a box of chocolate. Tip: Make sure you get on a floor 30+, otherwise, there is another hotel obstructing your view. Location can't be beat. While it doesn't sit on the beach, you walk across the street to it. There is also a hotel outdoor shower you can wash off before entering the lobby. The only downside to this hotel was the pool was on the 4th floor (I think) with most of it sitting in the shade during the day due to the building aforementioned above that not only blocks some views but also the sun. Not very appealing so we never used it, but being so close to the ocean, we preferred that to the pool anyway. Lastly, the hotel also offered a communal A/C room to rest up and even use their showers while you're waiting for a later flight.

You will have such a wonderful stay here! My husband and I came to celebrate our anniversary and the hotel made our stay so special and all of the staff were just lovely. We will definitely come back and stay here on our next trip!

We had an amazing time here. the greeted us with a lei, valet parking every time we moved the car, sent up comp bottle of champagne and chocolate, staged the bedding with robe & slippers. we loved it.

mtremain2021 (San Francisco, California) 10/17/2021

Have stayed a number of times and it’s always been great. Love that it’s just right across from the beach. Hotel staff is amazing and alway willing to help. Great place for families that don’t want to cook out every night.

chappybergwedding 11/08/2021

Excellent service, beautiful room, clean and posh! I will definitely stay here again and recommend staying here to locals who want a night on the town! Close to all the restaurants and night life. Or just order in and enjoy the views! Love this hotel, thank you!

Auntiealoha 10/25/2021

We are fortunate and grateful for this aston. The location was very convenient for us, as it was close to the hospital. longs is right downstairs, as is 7-11. The front desk staff IS truly terrific! They go above and beyond to help your stay be comfortable and convenient. The security is professional and on it!. ( That's hard to find nowadays) For those like us that did not have a car, they can quickly get a cab for you.. So, the next time you need a comfortable, clean, convenient place, call the Aston Executive Centre. They will make your stay a pleasant one.

we had a one bedroom suite. very comfortable and close to my daughter's college. Staff were kind, welcoming, professional, and helpful, I would highly recommend this hotel if looking for a downtown location.

GaryE1397AB 10/11/2021

Restaurant still not operating so it made getting something to eat at later times an issue. Management/security very friendly and room had a comfortable bed/clean bathroom/clean kitchenette and a great view.

ccrouch2021 (Salt Lake City, Utah) 08/25/2021

Questionable neighbors sleeping on the street, pay for parking that was on the uppermost floor of garage, no information on where I should park or where the garage was located. I needed to call the hotel. Out dated finishes in lobby, corridors and room. The room smelled like smoke so much I would have changed rooms but I checked in too late. No gym. Pool area not acceptable. I would not return or recommend.
