| the housing search |
the past few days I've been looking to secure a good housing situation for myself for the next year in honolulu. Since Honlulu isn't a really huge massive island, and everything's bus-routable, i have decided to look beyond traditional dormroom on campus placements to check out what's affordable in the city and after some phone and email inquiries, I'm looking at 3 different apartment complexes, 2 designed specifically for students and 1 for errbody and anybody. The rates are more than double of what I paid in k-town (900 USD for all inclusive one bedroom packages is the going market rate) but the location is so money. All three are within 1-3 blocks from Waikiki beach and are on the bus route to UohH (3 miles out = 10 minute busride). After heeding some suggestions, i figure that living in downtown Waikiki is probably the best situation given easy accessibility to the beach, parks, grocery stores, malls etc.. Besides, lugging a boogie/surf board on the bus would probably be a hassle if coming from campus. Alas, some pics of potential homes and their views

Dynasty Apartments
the interior pics aren't much to see cause all the pics they sent me were of unfurnished units. Here are the exterior and view pics:
no luck gettting good pics from the other two places (sides from interior shots) but they both are one block away from this mother...Waikiki Beach
dang. Just dang. |
