Situated in Honolulu and within 600 metres of Waikiki Beach, ALOH Seaside Women's Hostel has a shared lounge, non-smoking rooms, and free WiFi. Popular points of interest nearby include Fort DeRussy Park, Saint Augustine by-the-Sea and Hawaii Convention Center. Hale Koa Luau is 1.4 km away and Kapiolani Park is 2.3 km from the hostel. It was my first time staying in a hostel in a shared room and I loved it. The staff is extremely attentive and always tries to help with any questions. The bathroom in the room is cleaned daily and the shower is excellent, which made showering after a day at the beach amazing. On top of that, the beds are comfortable, the bed linens are clean, and the towels are fresh as well. The common areas of the hostel are great for relaxing and socializing. I felt safe the entire time, and there are lockers inside the rooms to store personal items. Finally, the location is perfect—close to the beach and everything you need to fully enjoy Honolulu. Without a doubt, I will stay at this hostel again.
