Cute condo in a great location! This is our second time staying at this location and one we would certainly stay at again. The bed and accommodations are very comfortable. I enjoy the view of the lush and tropical backyard. The nighttime frog sounds are great for sleeping IMO but if you are sensitive to noise, consider bringing earplugs. Overall a great place to stay!!

The Hilo studio was wonderful. The unit is newly constructed and is clean, bug free, and well done.The location is super quiet and very tropical. It’s a great spot for relaxation and the jungle sounds put you right to sleep. It is a short walk to town with coffee and amenities. We loved our time on the big island and this place was a great home base for us.

Great property, perfect location

If you want to feel like you’re in the rainforest, but also want to be close to town, then this is for you! It’s very close to Old Town Hilo, but doesn’t feel it at all. It’s very pretty and well equipped. Beds sleep great. Great directions for parking and checking in which was done through pictures. Would recommend again and again!

Lovely space in a private neighborhood

The rental is a studio with bathroom but no cooking capability ( toaster, minifridge, and microwave though). Host was very responsive and set us up with plates, bowls upon request. Outside the room it is like jungle with coqui frogs chirping all night. We loved the sound, so didn't bother us. Size of space is really only suitable for 2. Location was perfect- close to town and only 45 min to Volcanoes National Park. Would stay here again! Location

Everything was perfect, except for a strong smell

Amazing location that is close to town but feels removed. The room is very private. It is part of the rest of the house, but doesn't feel like it. The space was perfect in that it was comfortable and provided us everything we needed. It was clean, the only problem was a strong odor. We noticed it when we walked in every time and it seemed to come and go, at times stronger than other times. We were thinking it may be coming from the bathroom drain and since the bathroom walls are open up top it made the whole room smell. Hopefully it is something that can be fixed because we would stay there again if it weren't for the smell.

Wonderful stay in a peaceful oasis

Great stay in a quiet area and a few minutes ride to the center of Hilo. I loved the greenery views and the sounds of what felt like the rain forest. The bed was quite comfortable, A/C was solid, and easy communication with the host. I would definitely stay here again!

Perfect Stay in Hilo

This place was perfect for my husband and I during our recent trip to Hilo! Hannah made the arrival instructions extremely easy. The place was exactly like the photos. It was clean and has everything we needed - coffee, towels, shampoo/conditioner. It was easy getting in and out of the neighborhood. Hannah was friendly and welcoming. We would definitely stay here if we are in the area again!

Eazy Peazy getting in and out

Central location in Hilo in a cute residential neighborhood next to a stream. It reminds me of my childhood in Honolulu. And honestly much nicer and more comfortable than nearby hotels in my opinion. The car is just a few steps away from your door which I love since I just want to get in and get out when traveling. Hannah was very kind to send communication to coordinate check in time. I definitely plan to stay at this room again in the future if Hannah continues to host it. Enjoy your time in Hilo!!

Fantastic Hilo Apartment

The apartment is so lovely and Hannah is the most thoughtful hosts imaginable. Even discussing the import of orchids to the US with me, and putting me in direcct touch with her brother who does it often. Every detail is thoughtful, and it was cleaner than just about any room (hotel or homestay) I have ever been in. Lovely decor, great location near downtown Hilo, while being quiet and peaceful except for the sound of the river, the rain (it is Hilo) and the frogs. Thank you Hannah and I will return.
