Vive Hotel Waikiki is an excellent hotel for its category. It is centrally located yet reasonably priced. They serve a free light breakfast on the first floor primarily consisting of pastries, fruits and coffee.

The structure itself seemed to be an apartment/condo converted into a hotel. Checking in and out was a breeze.

We stayed in a junior suite. It was spacious as advertised. Or at least by Waikiki standards. It has ample space for luggage and clothes. If you are looking for floor to ceiling windows, this is not for you. It has tiny, tiny windows. We didn't mind since we didn't care for outside views. The bed offers a good night sleep but the air conditioner is loud. If you are a light sleeper, this may be a problem.

For its class, Vive Hotel Waikiki is solid hotel for the budget conscious traveler.
