My family and I really enjoyed staying in this home. It's just like the pictures. The close proximity to downtown Hilo was very convenient. The onsite hosts Roger and Share are fabulous! If you have any questions about the area they are a wealth of information. My only issue with renting this place is that the owner charges an "occupancy tax" I've stayed at several other Airbnb's and never had an after the fact charge. This was the only thing I did not like. My advice read everything very closely I'm told the charges for this "tax" was listed in the house rules. Everything else was very nice.
