Best Western The Plaza Hotel Honolulu Airport - Free Breakfast
Room was nice and clean, a little outdated and run down but not overly noticable. Staff were great, it wasn't near as loud as I thought it would be with being so close to the airport. Breakfast and the free shuttle were also a great perk!
