Alan & Lori are super hosts! Alan communicated well, provided great directions, tips for local eateries, recommendations for things to do and check in was a breeze. This is a great, cottage with windows for natural light, very comfortable! It's a lovely place to relax because it's located in a very quiet neighborhood. The cottage is located very close to the ocean with easy access to enjoy the sunrise! The well-placed windows along with the overhead fans circulated the air well. We had a wonderful time and will look forward to rebooking whenever we visit Hilo side :-)
