Great location

The studio is great, and the only issue was figuring out the location of the front door to the studio, which is inside the garage. Some noise when other occupants overhead, otherwise it’s a great location.

Extended stay

I stayed there for two weeks. Nice studio apartment in a duplex. The only downside is it’s next to a busy road and when people are in the other unit above you, you can hear them walking around. Otherwise a great place to stay.

First time in Hilo

Property was very comfortable and had easy access to stores restaurants and other conveniences. It is a large studio and had all the necessary amenities. Only negative thing was the noise from the upstairs unit. Other than that I would not hesitate to stay again.
