Pros: Great location in Hilo. Easy to get anywhere in the area. Very easy to check in and out. Convenient driveway parking.
Spacious and beautiful interior. Great kitchen and living areas. Beautiful artwork throughout. Comfortable beds - the master in particular was very comfy.
Cons: I should have read a bit more carefully - there is only one full bathroom/shower. The master bathroom is only a half bath. This was my oversight in reading the description, but important to know.
There was a bad odor in the master bathroom, master bedroom, and one of the other bedrooms that was present consistently throughout the stay.
Also, there were signs of moisture damage in various areas - most noticeable on the ceiling - I’m sure this is standard for living in such a damp climate, but could use some attention. I didn’t see any mold.
Bring a noise maker unless you can sleep to the sound of frogs! Charming most of the time, but one night there was one with a particularly high-pitched and LOUD croak - my iPhone app couldn’t overcome it. Closed doors and window panels but he was a beast. Again, comes with the territory - just want others to be aware!
Overall, great value and we would stay there again. Would give a 5 star review without the smell.
