Hale Hubner was a wonderful place to stay, and Matt and Tara had everything very well organized. Matt was proactive in letting us know about a potential issue with check-in so that we didn't have unexpected stress upon arrival, and was responsive to the one or two questions we had while staying there. The hale itself was clean and welcoming, and a quick 10 minute drive to HVNP and to a couple of restaurants. Emphasizing a couple of points from the description - if you want anything more than essentials, do bring them with you or be prepared to run back to Hilo, and be prepared for chilly mornings!
