This place is fantastic! It is the perfect location for exploring this side of the island. You are 5 mins from Volcano Ntl Park entrance which is great if you want to sneak back mid-may before dinner or if you want to head back into the park after dark (very cool when there is lava!). We also easily traveled to Hilo a few times as well. The place looks just like the photos and the space is well laid out making it very comfortable. Highly recommend!
