All the Royal Aloha Waikiki and Kona units have been renovated in the past three years and the Kona units have central AC now. Internal guest reviews are very positive on the renovations. We've stayed at the Kona location and my mom especially liked the pool. I don't know if you are staying in a one bedroom or a two bedroom. But, there is a one bedroom unit located away from the main building that has most of the Kona units. It is near the pool and the location was nice in the complex. We got that unit because we needed a unit that had minimal steps. I believe that the Kona location also has a couple of 3 bedroom units located in townhouses away from the main building, closer to the ocean. If you have a 2 bedroom reserved, you might be able to upgrade closer to the date, though I suspect that they usually go to owners in the know about them. As for Waikiki, I know that especially, the Sky Tower units were given a total face-lift, but I believe there are only one bedrooms at the Sky Tower. The renovations at the other two towers were also done, just not as extensive. All the Waikiki units are fairly large for Hawaii condos and have a washer and dryer.
