Extremely bare bones but a place to sleep, nice staff, and a 15 minute walk from Waikiki beach

It’s great to have the opportunity to visit somewhere that is very expensive, Honolulu, Hawaii, AND to be able to find an affordable place to stay, YMCA.

Clean room. NO air conditioning. Had a fan. They had trouble finding a key to a room. The building outside the room is old and dingy. There are a variety of people that are at the lower end of the scale, this is a place where people go who can't afford better. Staff were nice and friendly. They require a security check based on your ID, they check a database for sex offenders. Huge mall (Ala Moana) that is very nice right across the street. 3 lunch trucks right next door. City buses are excellent, you can take one to Waikiki Beach. Ala Moana Beach park is close.

It's Fun to Stay at the YMCA

YMCA offers affordable safe housing for people who may not have the ability to get conventional housing for whatever reason. I stayed here until my apartment was ready. It was an affordable flexible alternative to the high price hotels that surround it. The building is aged, but patched together like an heirloom quilt offering warmth and comfort. The staff are just as charming. Coffee and water in the lounge, and washer and dryer on the 5th floor. Not to mention you are in the heart of the busy downtown area. Shopping, restaurants, and of course the crystal clear ocean. You get to experience Hilton's Friday night fireworks without paying Hilton prices. Also the food trucks outside your door. You have privacy in your room, shared bathroom, but if you are a young explorer this is a good alternative to vacation on a dime. Don't sleep on the YMCA, instead sleep at the YMCA.

Best deal for single traveler in Honolulu! My single room was clean and near the elevator. Grant was kind and helped me get checked in. Exchanged my electric fan, gave tips on places to eat. Diego was also very kind, recommended the food truck nearby, the fish tacos were great! Busy street, but got quieter after 9:30. Just used eye mask and earplugs to get good sleep. Ala Moana Center is across the street, 3-min walk to Liliha Bakery for breakfast, close to beach, close to bus stop, If you have a car, best deal for overnight parking (covered) $10/nite on site! No A/C but with a fan (provided, and a USB personal fan, was comfortable at night. I needed to iron my clothes for a memorial service and they provided an iron with standup board. After second night, they cleaned my room, fresh sheets and towel. IMHO this is a hidden jem for hotel: 8-min walk to Convention Center, near to Waikiki and town. Highly recommended! Great alternative to hostel!

I have stayed at this property before, and while it definitely could use some new paint (I say this in a kind way because the place is great for short stays), this time when I returned they were refurbishing certain parts of the building and it’s looking nicer and nicer. It’s not a 5 star resort, so if you don’t go in expecting luxury you’ll be pleasantly surprised. The people who work there are great and I’d absolutely stay there again!
