Katrina's place was great for a few days around Hilo. Its location can't be beat - super close to the farmers market, downtown, beaches, airport, waterfalls, etc. The check-in process was smooth and the place had everything that we needed. Katrina gave us a great recommendation for a hike to some waterfalls that was a true gem. The guesthouse is a little quirky, but we definitely didn't mind. It's more like a studio with solid wall partitions that don't all reach the ceiling. So when you're in the toilet the privacy is limited (sound-wise), as there's no ceiling above it per se. We didn't care, but if you're not super comfortable with your travel partner it may be weird. There are also many noises at night - roosters, cars, neighbors, etc. Katrina provided us with earplugs, but if you're a light sleeper it's something to consider. Overall an excellent stay and a great location.
