Staying with Yuri was wonderful. On the day of, she welcomed me to her home, gave me a tour of the house, and provided me recommendations to the neighbourhood for food and things to do. The room was as described with a handy desk and chair (I think the top bunk isn't ready for use) and I enjoyed the privacy of my room, while allowing me to meet the other tenants. Unlike the other places I stayed at, this place was virtually clear of all bugs; I was very comfortable. Yuri also prepared breakfast of fresh fruit and pastries each morning which saved me time running around looking for food. I wouldn't hesitate to stay with Yuri again when I come to the big island!
