It's a really nice hostel. The staff was really nice and ready to help. It is clean and rooms are quite big and spacious. Being so close to the beach is a real plus!!!

The location was excellent just one street back from the beach at Waikiki/Kuhio. Easy walk to shops, cafe's, public bus and everything you could need. I loved the two share room with shared bathroom and kitchen. It was modern, comfortable and clean for an older style building. Check in staff were excellent and there is security 24 hours. Free beach gear available to use and free coffee/tea/hot chocolate. The Hi 5 tours offer a free half day trip on Sundays which would be great for getting to know some of Oahu's places. Ionnis also offers some great tours. I recommend the foodie tour.

Best hostel I've ever been to! Being all women, the environment is relaxed, safe, and very friendly. The WhatsApp group and social events (combined with coed sister hostels) made it so easy to make friends! Definitely stay here if you are considering it. Spacious and clean rooms as well. Excellent common area with hammocks, tables, kitchen, outdoor shower, etc. Towels and beach gear available to borrow for free.

All hostels in Honolulu

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

location of the hostel was very accessible, It was quiet and we felt really safe walking around the area. Our flight was delayed to Honolulu so we missed out on two days of our stay, however, the staff was very understanding and did not cancel our reservation. We were already so stressed being stuck in Sydney, but the helpfulness of the hostel helped relive that. We are so grateful. The tours they organise too, are so sick! very organised, fun and cheap. We met some amazing people

Using the Goki app to login and access rooms etc. Very tech savvy, also meant not fussing or worrying about losing keys. Rooms were cleaned regularly - bathrooms to a very good standard. Super helpful staff. Liked the baggage storage, left my main suitcase at the hostel while I travelled to mainland USA for five days. Very hand. Great location, safe too!
