Don’t be fooled by the outside, this place is a sweet little oasis right in Hilo town, only a few blocks from the farmer’s market, grocery store, bus stop, and shoreline. It is old but the decor is nice and its very clean. The bed is comfy.
The kitchenette and bathroom area have an open roof so are not mosquito proof. I did get some bites. Not a huge issue but there are periodic Dengue Fever mosquito borne outbreaks on the big island like 2 years ago.
Also, the kitchenette was well equipped and provided coffee to make but there is no b=breakfast in bnb here.
