The house was very nice and clean, and it had good wifi. It was right by everything. 8-10 minute drive from most things. You could walk to the gas station if you needed a quick snack.

Our short stay

Living room was extremely hot in the afternoon. Parking is very limited. Right off of a main road. Underneath neighbors pounded on the floor if us heavy set people walked too hard. My daughter slipped and fell and was crying so they pounded again scaring us. Shower had no pressure. The rooms were nice and cool with portable ac units, beds comfy. Owner was very kind and great with communication. The ring on the door made us a little uncomfortable but it’s understandable to have. Wouldn’t choose to stay there again, but maybe with the right downstairs neighbors and another portable ac in living room area the stay would be better.

Convenient, roomy house!

The house was a roomy older house, conveniently located 5 minutes from downtown Hilo. Overall, the house was terrific. The only drawback was the shower stall and showerhead. The shower flow was insufficient. A hand-held shower head would be better!
