The view was awesome and location was perfect. The room itself was nice but not having an oven as advertised made it a bit inconvenient for meals. The property itself was under renovation which made it difficult at times with only one elevator. I was told that the renovation should be done in August. The parking definitely not guaranteed; however, as a retired military or DOD employee we were able to use the Fort DeRussy parking lot at a discounted rate of $39 per 24 hours or $120 monthly rate (we got the monthly for our 7days). You can get the rates by going to the office at the Hale Koa covered garage. All non Mil/DOD would cost $79 per 24 hour/$235 per month (depending on your stay, the monthly is still a good deal).
