Everything was very modern and clean. It would be nice if there was a kitchen sink or basin in which to wash our dishes. A simple coffee machine would work better than a Keurig machine as there was only one pod per day and we enjoy a few cups of coffee throughout the day. A few extra utensils would also be handy as we like to cook our meals.

Quiet neighborhood Studio
Wonderful location away from the main towns but easily accessible to main highways that get to everywhere. Clean, quiet. Small so basically for either one person or a couple who likes to be close. It was just what we needed. A quiet place to go to after an active day of exploring the island. Owner very responsive to questions.

There is no Oceanview from unit, it is a room on the back of a garage with a garden view. The amenities are overstated. No kitchen, just a microwave, small fridge, coffee maker. Toaster. Only sink for food prep is the bathroom sink. Owner states hot plate and skillet available but there is no space to cook. Bed is a double shoved against a wall, meaning one person has to crawl over the other to get in and out. Had to put our luggage in the bathroom as no room in bedroom for luggage. No AC, and visiting in Dec, with windows open and 3 fans running, room was overly warm and stuffy. Much too small for our 6' bodies, perhaps okay for hobbits

We spent one night before catching an early morning flight from Hilo airport. The studio was perfect to unwind and rest before leaving. the shower was specially invigorating! The location is very convenient for those wanting to explore the Hilo area and the Hamakua Coast. Karla is a wonderful host who was very responsive.
