The house was very nice - clean and comfortable with two bedrooms, a nice living room and kitchen. I enjoyed my stay, although you should bring ear plugs as the frogs are noisy at night, and sleep eye mask, as there are only sheer window coverings. The house isn't close to anything of interest (such as beaches) and is about 30 minutes away from Hilo, about 6 miles off Route 11, which leads to Volcano Park. The location was great for me since it was close to the people I was visiting. I would definitely stay again.
