This place is a great value. It's tucked up against the ocean in a residential neighborhood close to a great surfing beach and incredibly close to downtown Hilo by car. The view out of the lanai was amazing and the sound of the ocean just saturated the place. The hosts were wonderful, even offering us fresh coconut when our stay coincided with the harvest from their trees. Bed was comfortable. We loved our trip to Hilo and this place made it.
