Alan and Lori's place was great, they have everything you'd need in a cozy little space that is comfortable in a way that makes sense for a place where you'll be in beach mode. It's in a nice area with some cools things and that is really well located to check out everything in the Hilo region. They had a decent amount of foodstuffs and even left us a couple nice ripe papayas.
Alan was easy to communicate with when we wanted to and gave us convenient directions and would send us google map links to good restaurants and cool things around the area. Really everything you could want in an airbnb.
