Traveling to Oahu and would like a Marriott property on Waikiki. Would you recommend Westin Moana or The Royal Hawaiian?

Great history on Royal Hawaiian. During WWII, it was the rest station for submarine crews. I understand there was a poker game that lasted 4 years. As one crew would go to sea, another crew would buy in

The Royal Hawaiian is very classic Hawaii - great location and definitely recommend.

All things being equal, the Royal Hawaiian. (I go to Hawaii once a month and have stayed at all the Marriott properties).

Royal Hawaiian or Sheraton Waikiki

Highly recommend not spending all your time in Waikiki

M fish, do any of you have recommendations for comfy athlesiure pants which are water resistant but also look good enough for wearing to a bar or restaurant?

Looking to be ~$60 or less per pair. Thanks in advance!
