this place had its day back in the 50s or 60s, but no one has done much for upkeep since. Door jamb rotten 3 inches up from the floor, structural beams, exposed in the hallways, rusting and corroded, mold, mildew, used Q-tips under the bed. And all this for a mere $95 a night! And the "contnental breakfast" was one... More

If you are a low maintenance traveler who wants a private, old style experience, this is the place to be! I enjoyed the kitchenette. This saved me money on food. If you don't mind the sweet cadence of the coqui frogs, this hotel will charm you! Parking is a challenge, but it is free. Great for small famlies and single... More

My adventure began as soon as I stepped into a cab at ITO. As I approached the hotel, I could easily recognize the sounds of the Coqui frog.. a tiny, native frog of Puerto Rico. Having recently returned from a trip from San Juan, how could I not recognize the Coqui's distinctive and deafening sound. After being exhausted after a... More

OK, not that nice but 4 stars for the value. Old decor, but not ragged and stained. No roaches or bedbugs, not bad for under $100. More

I got to admit up front that I have a bit of a soft spot for these "older style" hotels. I generally find they are staffed with friendly and helpful people and Uncle Billy's is just what I expected. The rooms were much bigger than any place I stayed in Waikiki. And while some people will be turned off by... More

You get what you pay for, however, there aren’t many hotel choices in the area. At least this hotel had a continental breakfast (lots of carbs). It looks like they may be trying to fix the place up some but the sink had rust around the facet, but a nice counter top. The ceilings had mold and the squares didn't... More

This is an old hotel near the bay. Staffs are friendly, the rooms are big but old. Carpets smells. The big problem is the bug. both my wife and daughter has been bitten by bugs on the legs/arms three times during our 3 night stay. (but we couldn't find out what kind of bug). it's not worth the money to... More

We spent the first 3 nights of our vacation at Uncle Billy's Kona Bay Hotel and transitioned over to their Hilo hotel for the remainder of our trip. I don't care what the other reviews say, Uncle Billy's is a great hotel and our family loves it. It's not a fancy-pants place, but it's still a really nice place to... More

This place is filthy. The carpets are the worst problem; God only knows how long they've been here. And I'm on the third floor with no elevator. I think they got the air conditioners at Costco. I couldn't find a coffee maker, so I asked: Can't use those in the rooms unless you have a kitchenette - a Cooking Unit.... More
