The pool and the activities surrounding it were amazing and our kids loved making lei and having shave ice daily (Midori in the shop was wonderful). Loved the nightly music and the drinks were good, the fries the best. Heard the restaurant is popular with locals even. But with Kono and Muragame Udon across the street we didn’t make it for dinner. These extras were definitely what made the hotel stay. Location was great, we walked to the beach easily even toting the boogie board. Shout-out to the great housekeeping who made our room perfect every day.

The room was great, but for the price the balcony was disappointingly grim (exterior room over alley/parking garage) with cheap furniture. The tragedy of having to walk downstairs for a cup of coffee. :p I like to have one while I read and wake up and for these prices, the lack of nespresso/kuerig in rooms is strange. The more bargain hotel we stayed at later in the week had one, why the missing amenity?

Needed 3 beds so size of room was great. Day beds were not that comfortable though, but it worked. Location was great, but very busy area. Liked the hideout restaurant and bar, loved the live music each night and the pool was very pretty. Price point was high, but needed 3 beds so had to pay more. All in all, very nice stay and great vibe at this hotel. Loved the decor!!

Day beds more comfy, price is a little high, but everything else is great!

Great hotel. Would not use Booking.com again as totally unresponsive to fact our airline changed flight schedule to a day later and we ended up paying for a bought we didn’t use . No matter how I tried Booking.com never came back to me on anything. Totally hopeless really and should be refunded I think . I will NEVER use booking. Com again but the Laylow team did all they could to at least ensure we got our room. Booking.com😩😩😩😩😩5 star tand totally awful

Booking.com are hopeless. See previous comments. Plain awful

Highlights of the property included: location, hotel vibe/theme, daily 10am activities & shave ice for the kids, welcoming staff/ helpful staff, & the convenience of the coffee shop in the lobby. The music playing whether it was live or not was always an absolute favorite.

My family absolutely adored the pool deck. The salt water, ability to lounge in the chairs at any point in time was great. The downside was that, as you enter to swim on the right side of the pool there was a very loose baseboard that would pop up. In that same area, there was algae that began to develop. During an afternoon swim on Tuesday 1/24 I slipped on one of those slick spots and hurt my left knee. A recommendation to include checking for algae & slick areas during the night cleaning, I noticed that maintenance was completed diligently every night.

A great city hotel in the heart of the tourist center. A 3-minute walk from all main restaurants and 5 minutes from Waikiki. We were traveling with two kids, so Waikiki was not the best choice for us. It's too crowdy and waived. The best options for kids are Ala Mohana beach and Ko Olina lagoons. It's better to pre-book all restaurants, as there are reeeealy long lines. Honolulu has great shopping opportunities. The sales tax here is much lower than in California or NY, so you can get your Chanel or Prada for $300 cheaper than in your local shops. And they have a great selection of items more interesting than in Rodeo Drive sometimes.

Do not ever take the tour for the Hawaiian fire show. It's 3 hours of standing in lines for food or drinks. You can see the show in different restaurants - better ask them about the schedule.

Best part was definitely the location as it was minutes (walking) away from some amazing restaurants, the local supermarket, the International Mall and of course Waikiki beach. Also loved the pool and the onsite restaurant, and the layout of the room was excellent.

During our weeklong stay the fridge had to be replaced and the shower drainage had to be unclogged. That said the response was prompt and the service was exceptional.

Walking distance to the beach, stores, tons of food options, ice cream... Live music every night, free snow cones every day, great pool, great food, great people, every detail at this hotel is beautiful!!!! 10/10 would recommend.

Wish there was a hot tub! And the pool chairs filled up very fast if we weren't there early. Wish there was a no-saving spots policy

The room was very cute; very boutique feel. I especially LOVED the sofa bed (so so sooo comfy; not at all like a traditional sofa bed). Also loved the layout; worked well for 5 girls. The bathroom was a bit small for 5 girls but it wasn't that bad either. The small dining area was also cute. Some of us used that space for work, private phone calls, and to get ready for the day

The bathroom was a bit small

Location - in the middle of the action, easy access to everything. Right next to the International Market place, restaurants etc. Not too far of a walk to beach. Awesome pool, services and amenities. Staff were exceptional, each person we had interaction with went above to make our stay amazing. Loved the gift basket!

The air conditioning noise from the carpark was a bit noisy, however closing the doors blocked this completely.

We booked this property because of the king size bed and 2 additional beds for the kids. We really appreciated the size of the room and the small table area for eating which was a pleasant surprise.

It met our expectations. Maybe a bigger pool.
