A perfect base of operations for visiting sites in southeastern Hawaii! Lots to do and see. This quiet neighborhood is close to downtown Hilo. We enjoyed an early morning visit to the waterfront where we watched several sea turtles feed along the lava shore (low tide). The room was clean and bed was very comfy. We enjoyed visiting and sharing destination tips with other travelers, typically in the morning in the shared ktchen. Allen was friendly and helpful. Thank you for a great stay!
