We report on the continuous Swift follow-up observations of the black hole candidate MAXI J1659-152 (ATel #2873, ATel #2877, GCN #11296) currently in its low luminosity, hard state (ATel #3201). Two more observations were performed after our previous report (ATel #3201). The observations were taken on 2011-03-14 20:01:45 UT for 2.4 ks, and on 2011-03-27 00:33:03 UT for 2.1 ks, and were all carried out with Photon Counting (PC) mode.
