Stay Waikiki

Waikiki


This mod property (vibrant blues and oranges throughout) on a side street one block from the beach is cheery enough. The 73 rooms are bright and come with amenities such as fridges and microwaves; request one with a balcony. Upper-floor deluxe rooms are roomier. Coin-op laundry on site. The resort fee is $10. Wang Chung's, a delightful karaoke bar, keeps things crooning until late.
