The best guesthouse B&B I’ve stayed in. It’s like a wonder land. Generously equiped with everything you need and more. The landlady really likes her guests and care about them. Highly recommended.

Great place to stay

10.0

A great stay well situated a short distance from central Hilo. Very spacious and had everything we needed from beach towels, to the most well stocked kitchen I've ever stayed at. The place is well furnished with lots of cool ornaments. We counted 27 clocks, there may have been more.

Nothing!

We liked the space. There were a lot of rooms to enjoy. There was a full kitchen, living room, den, 1.5 bathrooms and a great outside area.
