This location was great for our families. We had a family of 2 adults and 2 kids upstairs, and 2 adults and 3 kids downstairs. There was plenty of room for everyone. It stayed cool enough inside during the little bit of the day we were there, and it was very pleasant at night. There are a lot of fans. There was a rooster in the morning, but the fans mainly drowned thar guy out, no big deal. The neighborhood was fine, it looked like a pretty typical, locals in Hilo type of neighborhood. We didnt interact with them at all, it was pretty quiet. Its also nicely located. Downtown Hilo was about 10 minutes drive. The Volcanos National Park Visitors Center was about 30 minutes, about an hour to the Muana Kea Visitors Centet, and about 90 minutes to South Point. We also ran over to Kona in about an 90 minutes. Rainbow Falls, the Boiling Pots, and a cave I now forget the name of which was close to the Pots were also only a short drive away. A number of groceries were also very close. It was also very clean. I highly recommend it! Oh, and they were kidding, its kind of amazing, but it can be pouring in Hilo and sunny on the Hilo Beaches!
