This cozy studio was more spacious than I expected. It was clean and thoughtfully designed. Jane puts lovely personal touches into your stay by decorating with fresh, tropical flowers. She greeted us after check-in and was very accommodating throughout our 3-night stay. There is a hot plate for cooking and kitchen basics, though we did not prepare much food at the studio. Downtown Hilo (for restaurants and waterfront breach parks) is just a short drive away. I do recommend a rental car if you stay here and you have a designated parking spot in the driveway. Also, the apartment cools down nicely in the evening, the bed was comfortable and there is a ceiling fan for airflow. We had a fabulous stay!
