This was a very nice low-budget alternative to accommodations in Hilo. The two young women who managed the place and handled check in were lovely and very helpful. They kept the place tidy and clean. The other guests were also very respectful.
I should mention that in my mind this listing is more of a hostel than a B&B, which isn't necessarily negative, but more accurate and sets expectations at the right level. The house was clean, but a far cry from the charming decor of more traditional B&B's. Nor was the breakfast quite up to par for a B&B either. There was a piece of white bread, a pre-packaged pastry, and a mini candy cane (!?). Some fresh fruit was also included which was nice. Coffee and tea too of course. Nice sentiment, but lacking quality. Still not surprising given the low cost.
