No question that the view is at the top of the list.
The condo itself is quite small and shows its age. It was very helpful to have the stores and the eating places within a short distance. I would probably not rent it again.
The studio was perfectly located within walking distance of the beach and even downtown Hilo. It had everything we wanted and a great view out over the green area between the building and the ocean. There was a very good coffee shop (Just Cruisin Coffee) just five minutes walk away and lots of restaurants all within walking distance (up to 30 minutes walk). Overall, an ideal location in Hilo
I stayed here for 4 nights while traveling to Hilo for work. The property was perfect for my needs. Everything was clean and in good condition and the condos are centrally located. I would absolutely stay here again!
We enjoyed our stay at this cute unit. It was located in a great part of town and made it easy to get to everything. The unit was just how the pictures showed.
The two things I was specifically looking for were a king size bed and a pool. The bed held up to my expectation but the pool was disapointing.The pictures showed a descent pool but we were never able to go in. Why would a unit remodel a pool in the peak season of travel to the island? The pool was a letdown.
The unit though was great!
We love the view from the balcony of the lagoon park area. The rooms were clean and tastefully decorated, and the kitchenette was stocked with everything we needed. The bed was very comfortable, and the air conditioning worked well, and was very much appreciated. The location was very central, which made it easy to get around town and walk to many locations.
The bathroom had some issues, in that the lighting was very dim. We especially needed light above the medicine cabinet to be able to see our faces while grooming. The bottom of the tub was flaky and worn looking. Also, the drain was very slow, and when we pulled it off the stopper we could see that there was a big wad of hair stuck in it that we couldnât pull out. The water drained perfectly with the plug taken off. We would encourage the owners to clean the hair out of the drain topper.
At times, wind blew under the front door, quite loudly, but the problem was solved by putting towels along the bottom of the door which blocked the wind coming in from the hallway.
The first impression driving up to the hotel is not great. It seriously needs a paint job. We were a little embarrassed to have friends drop us off there when returning one day.
That all being said, we really enjoyed our stay, and would stay there again. We even said we would live there in a larger one bedroom apartment if we had the opportunity.
My husband and I stayed for three nights, the studio is small but perfect for just two people, especially when being outside more of the time. The area around the apartment didnât feel super safe at night time, but we were fine walking. Close to downtown and all within easy driving to the rocky beaches
The unit was as advertised. It was quite small. The only real negative was a lack of comfortable places to sit other than the bed. Exchange some of the little tables with a small loveseat.
The apartment was super cute, my husband and I had a great stay! It is quite small but if youâre out exploring a majority of the time and not planning on spending time inside then itâs not a problem! The building itself is outdated and smells like smoke but the aparwntment is very clean and updated. Itâs also conveniently located near many beaches/lagoons, and downtown Hilo. Itâs easy to find also being the tallest building in town. Overall we enjoyed our stay!!
This studio was a perfect stay for 3 days in Hilo! Close to the volcano, waterfalls and beaches! Walking distance to some fun restaurants! Property management was great and easy to communicate with! Would stay again and recommend to friends s d family!
