We had a quiet room, which was amazing for our 2 night stay. The staff were amazing and always attentive to our needs. For a family of 3, with suitcases, the room was a little small. However, it was super clean, comfortable, and great bathroom amenities. I would stay again for sure.

Beautiful tropical location with lush garden. Spacious, clean cottage. Beds were comfortable and our kids liked having the curtain as a separator for their "room". We had everything we needed, and the staff was friendly and inviting, so we could have asked if anything was missing. There were small waterbottles and cookies in the cottage as a welcome which was a nice touch! The layout of the cottages gave us a really private feel, even when folks were in the neighboring cottage. We LOVED the secret beach. Mostly locals in a number of differently sized tidepools. Reef shoes strongly recommended!

The location was excellent, its near the famous gardens and turtle island which are lovely walks. It is also a major pickup point for various tour groups. The hotel itself was quite decent for the price, very laid back with good facilities. Perfect for couples or families.

All! Even though it's a simple, local and antique hotel, our stay was great! Staring by Lee at front desk that was so kind and amazing to us. If you're expecting for a super fancy and impersonal hotel, this is not for you. The stay was great because it was simple, connected to the nature and cultural. You sleep and wake up with the sound of the animals outside and it was so beautiful. Breakfast is very nice and the area you get to eat is rich of details and, of course, more nature. Price was great for the offerings. If you are a nature and local culture appreciator, that place is for you.

The location was great, it’s close to the centre but you’re far away that you can also enjoy the silence of the sea. I also LOVED the fact you can see sunrise from the dining room 😍😍 and everyone working there are really friendly and helpful!

The house was absolutely perfect for our family gathering. We came together to remember our sister who passed away. We had 7 adults and 4 kids . The pool is great and the separate wing for part of the family was nice. Spacious so plenty of space to get together comfortably and we could all eat at the dining table together. The kitchen has everything needed and so clean and organized. And big enough to cook a big meal for everyone . The bedrooms have very comfortable quality beds and very nice bedding. Everything is top tier . Highly recommend to big groups. Good communication when we had questions also .

    I LOVE Hilo!!! It still holds "The Essence of Hawaii."

    I LOVE Hilo!!! It still holds "The Essence of Hawaii." It is not overrun with tall modern buildings, and "Tacky Tourist Attractions." It maintains an Old Hawaii Charm. You're not overwhelmed with street performers and aggressive sales people trying to pull you into their cosmetics stores. Yet there are still some homeless people there which is not good. However, I feel very safe in Hilo. There are nearby beautiful gardens and great beaches! Hilo is surrounded by so much natural beauty. There are some great restaurants there as well. I really like all of them, and I make sure to have at least one dinner at Hilo Bay Cafe. I also always make sure to visit the Imiloa Astronomy Center by UH Hilo. It is an excellent place to learn about the history & culture of Hawaii. And their planetarium has amazing presentations!

    Has the atmosphere of old Hawaii in the downtown, but it also has new and intriguing areas such as the University of Hawaii at Hilo and it's astronomy center. It also has access to Volcanoes National Park, which is an iconic park and sometimes volcanic eruptions to observe. It also has an extremely extensive farmers market with whole range of tropical fruits and vegetables.

    The Hilo area is the wet side of the island but our 7 night stay resulted in late evening showers and only 1 semi-rainy day in mid-March. We were lucky. Hilo is old, funky, has a great Farmers' Market, and wonderful scenery. People are friendly and nice. Streets are clean and the flora lovely! As many folks say, it's Hawaii before tourists have overrun it and developers have built fancy hotels.

    Don’t go to Hilo the first part of the month when all the retired and subsidized locals are cashing their government checks. Stores and restaurants are mobbed. Love the local waterfalls and Liliuokalani Gardens. There was a lot of traffic!

    Hilo is green, walkable, laid-back, mostly attractive and has a lot of character, although some areas are in disrepair with closed shops. If you prefer grand hotels, sunnier weather, commercial tourism and private beaches, stay on the Kona side of the island. Hilo is island-style, and surrounded by waterfalls, botanical gardens and lush coasts with shorter drives to attractive spots. Great snorkeling at Carl Smith and Richardson Ocean Park.

    Hilo is real Hawai'i, not a resort town.

    Hilo is real Hawai'i, not a resort town. There are no white sandy beaches like the Kona side, although there are beaches, they are usually black rock beaches. The food scene is excellent however where most of your restaurants are locally owned and have all different types of food. Hilo is on the Windward side of Hawai'i Island so be prepared for rain. It's why it's so green there! Take a chance and experience Hawai'i Island like the Locals do. Respect the Locals and the place they call home.

    The location of the hotel is perfect, being so close to downtown Hilo made it really convenient. The breakfast was delicious, with fresh fruits, juice, coffee, bagels or bread, and little muffins. Our room was spacious with a little bonus entryway section and ocean view. Also, the staff was very friendly and helpful during our stay :)
