this is at an excellent location right next to a farmers market, downtown Hilo, and near the waterline. all the great snorkeling spots are about an 8 min drive away. we happened to be here during July 4th and saw fireworks. this is a 4-bedroom place 2 bath 1 shower, no dishwasher or laundry. Marlene was very responsive. Amenities included. Beds are firm. We had a very pleasant stay.
