I traveled to Hilo from Maui for work and was very happy with the accommodations. The day I arrived, Rachel was outside working with some music playing and I knew the house would have a relaxing vibe right then. Rachel was very kind and easy to communicate with and the house is in a lovely neighborhood. The décor was nice, simple, clean and comfortable yet it felt very inviting from the moment you walk in. The place had all the comforts needed, including plenty of kitchen space to cook and in my case, study! As for any school bells, I had a packed schedule so I never heard them at all. I enjoyed my stay and wish I had been able to spend more time relaxing (and maybe playing a little frisbee too) rather than working.
Rachel, Mahalo nui loa for your kokua with warmest aloha. Malama Pono. ☺
