Loved the proximity to the Wailoa River State Rec Area

The condo provided us with a nice, cozy accommodation that suited our needs. The view just a few steps off the doorstep was absolutely stunning. We enjoyed the pool and everyone we encountered during our stay was very friendly. Really enjoyed our stay in Hilo!

Six nice nights in Hilo

Great, centrally located, nice property and everything we needed for our six night stay. Pool area was nice and staying next to the fishpond was amazing.

Great Location- close to Edith Kanakaole Stadium

Location was close to Edith Kanakaole Stadium, wish the area of the Villas weren’t as sketchy. Cleanliness could’ve been better. Studio had portable AC but would need to have the sliding door open because of the flex tube. Communications with host was great.

The Pool was great, we liked the feral cats, chickens and ducks roaming the property. It was quiet, close to restaurants and shopping, easy to get to the beaches, downtown and highways. The Hosts were pleasant and accommodating. We didn't use any of the cooking facilities but it was nice to know they were available if we wanted to cook.

Dated

Even though the property is a bit dated, the accommodations were nice, clean but a bit noisy. Loved being able to leave the screen doors open, loovered doors closed and listen to the rain all night.

Mommy daughter trip

My daughter and I stayed for two nights in the ground floor studio. As we were not driving but taking the bus, we were happy to find out that we could get within a few blocks. On foot the location is somewhat tricky to find. We used the address and that left us at the wrong side of the pond. Once we got to the place it was cutely decorated and stocked with what you would need. The studio can be stuffy, so be sure to use the fans provided and get instructions. We discovered that we could walk downtown though it was at least 30-45 minutes walk. Bikes would make this easy. Hilo is a cute town with good food. The bus is free and we took it to the beach and the airport. Overall this was an affordable, safe, quiet place to stay. Not fancy but cute. Not in the center of it all but close. When we had questions we got gracious help from our co-host. Great for budget travelers and simple duos.

The photos look much better than what you get. The place needs serious deep cleaning. All light switches are dirty, film of dust on top of the fridge which is low so you can see standing there. We had to use the pull out sofa which is smaller than a twin size bed, the area behind was full of dust and stains on once pulled out on couch. There was sheet but no pillow case. Had to use the sham pillow from the main bed. The actual couch was ripped and stained. We didn’t use the pool. The unit has no window only sliding door which if opened you can hear the ducks or chickens in the early morning. Very noisy. If people are by the pool you hear everything as well. Bathroom moldings are dirty or need a new paint. Tries not to look closely. The worst part was it smells stuffy, uncirculated air when you walked in since there is no window. We had to open the sliding door the whole time and closed everything when we left and again when we were back, the stuffiness was there until we turned on the fan and opened door again. Location is ok. Need a car. If you walk, coming back at night the street would be very dark, no light and not sure how safe. You could also hear the noises from the bar near the water. Just not a comfortable place to stay.
