Maria really took care of us during our stay. She brought us fruit from her garden just about everyday. But more importantly, she offered genuine kindness to us. Even though we were definitely one of her more difficult guests. She even helped us add people after reserving, and adjusted the rate to be cheaper for days when we had less guests ;)

The house was spacious and nice. We used the kitchen every day, and found all of the cooking ware and utensils we needed. There was one bathroom for the 6 of us, but we somehow never had any issues with that, lol.

The location is great, as well. You can get to anything in Hilo in just a few minutes. All of us really appreciated Maria's genuine kindness and highly recommend her if you want to go to the Big Island.
