Kawehi had fresh baked croissants on the counter when we arrived. She is so sweet and full of knowledge about the island and the town of Hilo. The home itself is very funky and has a lot of unique charm. It feels a bit cluttered but is very functional and interesting. The kitchen is large and open and the outdoor garden area is very pretty. We found the noise from the street to be a bit loud at times but it did quiet down later in the evening. The location is close to downtown and we found it easy to get around. All in all we enjoyed our stay here.
