I hadn't been to Hawaii in 8 years but I was impressed with Yuri pictures and decided to try airbnb for the first time. Hilo is a little town and her home was just a few miles from the airport so that was very convenient. The room was clean and comfortable and I slept well the entire time I was there (8 days). Yuri was very nice and had fresh fruit and pastries set out in the kitchen every morning. My only request would have been for more of the amazing pineapple, especially when there were other guest because it went very quickly. There is one and a half baths that are available for guest. So that can be an occasional concern when there are several other guest. The maximum number that was there while I stayed was five people. But it didn't really cause any issue. The TV is in the family room so if you like to watch shows in your room, bring something with you. The neighborhood is very quiet except for the frogs at night, but I liked them. I miss them now that I am back home. The location was extremely convenient to get into town and it made it a breeze to catch our flight. I would definitely stay here again. I would just request extra pineapple. :)
