This is the worst hotel I have ever stayed at. My wife and I always travel on a budget and look for good value at a fair price. This is not it! There is an underlying smell of mold in the room, not good. The pond needs a good cleaning, even a bad cleaning would help. The breakfast had bread,... more

During our stay there, the maids went through my purse, stole $70.00 from my walet, my digital camera and my husband's IPOD. I spoke to the lady at the front desk and she simply didn't care. The manager said I can make a police report and they'll question the staff. Very dirty and dingy hotel, we WILL NOT be staying... more

Not the great luxe, from outside but inside, the room is really correct for a correct price ( $73) that we can't find lower in Hilo and area.... The balcony give you a partial view on the ocean and it's not so bad finally. if sun ( rainning one day on two...) , you can stay there and appreciate the... more

This is not a fancy hotel (the Halekulani it's not, but it's also a tiny fraction of the price of the Halekulani), but we were very satisfied. It's not a Sheraton either, but they sure don't have the fragrance dispensers that plague the Sheratons in Hawaii. They did have some flowers out that smelled nice in the lobby. It's simple,... more

Hotel was very run down, but we read the reviews before staying and knew what to expect. Simply put, there are not alot of choices in Hilo. Complimentary breakfast was slim pickings with some pastries, bread, and fresh fruit. Not even cold cereal. Lesson learned, but it was inexpensive & conveniently located. On the positive side, the staff were very... more

This hotel is well past its prime. If you're looking for elegance, then try the hotel that is being renovated next door. If you're looking to save a few dollars on your stay, then Uncle Billy's may be for you. Room was well-used, but clean. There is a small parking lot, and you may have to park on the street.... more

Once stayed there and the room started with no doors. They put them back on almost immediately. There is a great garden, very nice staff, many of the college teams and business travelers stay there when in Hilo. I think it brings a touch of reality to people who go to Hawaii. Close to Kens for breakfast, near the great... more

Perhaps this hotel was once a nice one at the time it was built, years ago. However, we stayed there as it was the only hotel that would contract with our package, offered by Pleasant Holidays, and we wished to stay in Hilo. Perhaps due to the recession this hotel is sadly in need of repair, with leaks dripping onto... more

I have stayed here many times in the past, it is my hotel of choice when staying in Hilo. Though the hotel maybe in need of some renovation, the rooms have always been clean and the hotel staff has always treated me as family. I have enjoyed my stay here and have eaten at the restaurant and found to food... more
