Excellent place to stay! Daryl and his family are very welcoming, kind, and hospitable. They provided us with plenty of tips on places we should visit while on the Island of Hawaii. The private bedroom was very nice and had a comfortable large bed with shared bathroom for all guests. They have 2 friendly small dogs and cat for those animal lovers which just added a great home-like feel and atmosphere. We greatly enjoyed the company of Daryl and his family. We highly recommend to anyone traveling near Hilo on a budget.
