We had a great time staying at Mark's studio. We had a late flight and arrived after sunset and it was nice to approach the cozy studio with the drapes drawn and lights on. The guest parking was clearly signed and right in front of the door. The unit is attached to Mark's house, but is completely separate and still maintains privacy. The property overall is very well-maintained, located in a quiet neighborhood that was easy to find. The unit is comfortable, clean, and looks better in person than in the pictures. The unit features air conditioning and cable TV, which my mother greatly appreciated. He provided a guidebook of various articles and and road trip itineraries, one of which we followed our first full day there. Mark was quick to answer any questions we had and was a good host overall. We would definitely recommend this studio to anyone staying on the Hilo side of the Big Island.
