My boyfriend is stationed at Schofield Barracks so I've been out there 3 times in the past year to visit. The Aqua Equus has by far been the best hotel out of the three I've stayed at. The room was neat and clean, had a very comfy bed and was just overall a nice place to stay. You don't spend... more

Like so many others, I read review after review on this and many other properties before finally making the decision to book here. What finally became the deciding factors were the price and pictures of the refurbished rooms. With 6 of us traveling I wanted the most affordable rooms with the greatest comfort. I am pleased to say that we... more

Following an extensive family visit to Arizona and Ohio, I felt it necessary to visit Hawaii for some relaxation. I chose to go to Oahu for a change, and try a small non-resort hotel. Friends who live in Honolulu recommended the Equus Hotel on Ala Moana. The hotel is family-owned, and is run like a bed & breakfast. Rooms are... more

The Aqua Equus turned out to be a decent hotel. We booked The Equus because of the photos you see on Expedia were much more "newer" and less "flowery comforters" than other hotels in the area. Needless to say, the rooms looked like the one in the photo. We ended up with a room with 2 double beds. The bathroom... more

After reading the mixed reviews I decided to try this location out for an overnight stay before an international flight. Mainly due to a better beach location then an airport hotel and the online price that was offered. What a big mistake this was! I took an airport shuttle to the location. From reading the previous reviews I was prepared... more

Great value hotel in a central location for beaches, restaurants and shopping. Recently refurbished with good room amenities including WiFi. Hotel staff friendly and helpful. There are stairs up to the hotel lobby from the street. There is an elevator to all floors from the lobby but you can keep yourself fit by using the stairs. Stayed for 14 nights... more

Stayed one night pre-cruise at the Equus and were very pleased. The elevator was under renovation and very slow so being on the 4th floor, we took the stairs a lot. Yes, it was a bit of a pain dragging luggage up the stairs to reception and if you have issues with stairs, you might want to choose another hotel.... more

Got a Savvy Surfer rate of $94.00 - $105.24 with tax. Clean rooms, friendly staff, Fridge and coffee maker, flat screen TV Pool was small and probably not suited for big kids. Elevator is worst feature. Does not go to ground floor so you have to carry your luggage up a full flight to the lobby where you take the... more

My mother and I stayed two nights. The hotel has been renovated and the rooms are very nice. The beds are the most comfortable I have slept in and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The only issue is that there is a flight of stairs to get into the building and also around the reception area which is... more
