We had a fantastic time at Michael's place. The apartment is spacious and contains everything you might need, from adaptors to sunscreen. The place has a great rural feel, but is walking distance from downtown Hilo. Everything was clean and beautifully prepared for us -- Mike is a very thoughtful host and promptly replied to all our questions, and let us drop our bags ahead of check in so we didn't have to carry them with us all day. Very highly recommended!
