Excellent location to downtown Hilo. Simple but comfortable accommodation. Shared bathroom, which is clean.
Andolie was very welcoming and helpful - she let me borrow snorkeling equipment and her boogie board. Her current renters (in the other room) were also a nice couple who were very helpful with local information. Only downside was slightly loud neighbors - not raucous but just easy to hear. However, I usually came back so tired from a day of adventuring that it wasn’t hard to fall asleep.
