Rachel's apartment was really beautiful with a fully equipped kitchen and a large, comfortable bed. There were beach gear for us to use and plenty of room to store luggage, eat dinner and hang out. The surroundings were peaceful, we had two nights of very good sleep! We didn't get to meet Rachel since she was away, but the host who greeted us was very nice and welcoming. We would highly recommend this place to anyone who would like a pleasant stay in Hilo!
