If you're looking for an affordable, clean, and seamless sleeping experience in Waikiki, Podtel is the way to go. I stayed with my friend for three nights during their soft opening, and everything was already running smoothly. We received a code to access our sleeping area, which had plenty of space and individual sleep pods that fully enclose for rest. One of the best things about these pods is the privacy—my friend could come in late, and I could wake up early without disturbing each other. The pods also have outlets, fans, and soft lighting—basically, it’s super comfy. The staff was friendly, and the other guests seemed chill. A special shoutout to Tanya for being super helpful and accommodating, especially when we needed to store our luggage after checkout while we explored the area. The location is unbeatable—just a short walk to the beach, great coffee spots, nightlife, and shopping. For a brand-new spot, Podtel is already doing an amazing job. Can’t wait to see how it evolves!

Literally the best place to crash in Waikiki if ur on a budget but don’t wanna stay in some sketchy hostel. The pods are actually super comfy, way more private than bunk beds, and the AC is a lifesaver after being out in the sun all day. I was lowkey worried it would feel claustrophobic, but it didn’t at all—felt kinda cozy actually. Bathrooms were clean, which is a BIG deal for me, and the whole vibe was just chill. Met some cool ppl in the common areas but also had my own space when I wanted. Def recommend if ur traveling solo or w/ friends and just need a solid, affordable place to sleep!!
