This was a great place to stay near Hilo! Easy access by car to stores, food, and attractions, but not walking distance to much of anything except the AWESOME beach parks next door. Pool is simple, but the water is inviting and the gardens around it provide that tropical experience that you'd expect. The small patio faces a small jungly area, and you can hear many frogs in there. But, the way this unit is facing in the building, you only see treetops, and no ocean view. It's also hard to get a cross breeze going, but the unit has two fans that help move the air around inside. There's no dishwasher or A/C. Very friendly neighbors, clean complex. Has parking.
