Pagoda Hotel
I needed to iron a wrinkled shirt, but no irons available. You need bathroom exhaust fans to draw out moisture.

Too busy and loud of a resort. It felt like a theme park and not relaxing

Sheraton Waikiki Beach Resort
Direct access to the beach, and beautiful pool with hot tubs. However, I expected transportation to and from the airport as it was announced online, but there was no shuttle at all for this hotel.

The room had a perfect view of Diamond Head and did not disappoint. The room was clean and staff was very helpful and accommodating. The beach was steps to the beach and would stay here again!
