The Aston Waikiki Circle was exactly what I was looking for…an affordable hotel on the beach with a great view. (I got an oceanfront room!)
This place does not have the amenities or updates of many of the more expensive hotels, but the price and resort fee accounts for that.
The rooms are small and bathroom is compact, but I didn’t spend much time in the room. When I was in the room, I was enjoying the view, whether day or night.
I would stay there again for a couple of days at the beginning or end of my trip, however, I wouldn’t want it to be my only experience on Oahu.
