My husband and I took a quick trip to Hawaii Island to see the Mauna Loa eruption. Gwyn's listing was affordable and conveniently located in Hilo. The studio is in an older home but has been updated. Although it was next to an apartment building, it was quiet...with the exception of some coqui frogs that peeped at night.
Although we did not use the kitchen or the laundry facilities, this studio would be ideal for longer stays. Fortunately, I brought our body wash, shampoo, and shower cap. Check with the host for a list of the provided amenities prior to your arrival or you may need to visit a local sundries store.
The unit was clean and the queen size bed was comfortable.
Mahalo, Gwyn!
