If you ever visit Hilo, stay here! Maricel was an excellent host, super communicative throughout & was very accommodating. She also went the extra mile & provided some complimentary extras which we loved! This was the best Airbnb we stayed at during our 4 weeks staying on the Hawaiian islands & we would gladly stay here again. The home was easy to access following Maricel's instructions. House was spotlessly clean & accessed via a short flight of steps. The place was super spacious & looked so much better than the photos. Everything seemed new & clean with every amenity. Kitchen & fridge had lots of condiments (good quality oil, butter/ spread, sauces, spices). Kitchen items plentiful & in excellent condition. Even though there were only 2 of us staying there in the 3 bedroom & 2 bathroom place, the cost was such excellent value that we had to stay here & it felt very homey. Air con worked well in living room & main bedroom with fans in every room. Laundry & dryer free of charge to use with plentiful detergent, stain remover & softener. A drying rack was also provided! Lots of bathroom essentials provided(shampoo, conditioner, body wash). Wifi was excellent, TV worked well & bed was very comfortable. There is also a very helpful & professional looking folder that the host has put together with an abundance of local tips. We have travelled extensively across the world in Airbnbs & this really was a phenomenal stay. The only thing I would consider is that if larger groups plan to stay here & cook here, that we noted that there isn't really a formal dining space/ table but that wasn't a worry for us as there are 2 armchairs, a large sofa & 3 dining chairs(at kitchen island) which were comfortable. All in all, the winner of our Airbnb stays in Hawaii!!!
