If there was to be something to improve maybe but not a big deal is the laundry system thereโ€™s only 2 washers for 19-20 floors and if your staying there for more than 5 days itโ€™s very useful but wait time can be long if ppl are not on top of their times."

The room was very nice, a bit noisy on the beach side at night especially on the weekend. I had to sleep with my headphones on. The pool floor on the beach tower has a musty smell from the wet carpets. I felt awful for people who had to stay on that floor. If you get longboard club or equivalent, make sure to bring it up when you check in. We found multiple people were not given access even though they paid for it with their booking, including ourselves. So we missed out on using it our first day."

They even arranged for my wife and I to return to the room we had just checked out of so my wife could lay down and recover after the paramedics had finished with her. Very impressed with their level of concern. Highly recommend The Wayfinder as a place to stay in Waikiki."
