One word: perfect!
The location is great, just next to Hilo. Maria and Steve place is so charming and quiet. The apartment was also very clean. It's hard to describe atmosphere with words but in fact, being to maria and Steve place is like being at home, or moreover being at your dreamt house.
Maria is also so welcoming... The girl is a gold mine when it comes to give you advice about what yo do in the neighborhood and she is also a purely nice person. She is always smiling, helping you, and just makes you feel good (few examples: some fresh gardenia for my girlfriend, papayas for morning breakfast, etc.).
I have only one regret and it was that I have to leave their place to come back to mine...
