If you love the rat race and tourist traps this is not the place for you! I just loved Hilo. It’s the kind of sleepy little town I could imagine living in. Megan and Jasper’s place is right in the middle of town close to anything you need: the grocery store, farmers market and lots of restaurants. Their loft is the perfect location to just have a chill time or as a spot to come back to after exploring the island. Parking was not a problem at all.
I loved the hanging bed!
Make sure you take note that there isn’t a microwave or any way to cook. But there are sooo many little cute restaurants around it was not a problem for us.
I have to say that sitting on the porch listening to Jasper and his friends play their guitars was magical! Loved the koi fish and cats!
