It's cute, basic, a little outdated, but clean. Staff is friendly, and Ken's Pancake House is close by. I love that it's a family-run hotel and the location is great for its proximity to downtown HIlo and/or Volcanoes Park. However, if you are a light sleeper, beware: it's very close to the airport and you might be woken by the... more

I was expecting the worst possible accommodations after the reviews I read about this hotel but it honestly wasn't bad. It is old, like every other hotel in Hilo, and very small but it was extremely clean and quiet. There was some weird looking empty lot at the rear of the hotel but as this was not near our room,... more

.............. I cannot believe some of the reviews on .......... on this motel (it is not a hotel), were ....... were we in a different motel or are these people standards that low?

The best alternative was the Ohana Gril (just across the road) where the foor and service were what I rated as excellent.... more

This little place is a gem! The staff is very friendly and the interior is quaint and unique. The early morning swim across the way in Ice Lake was lovely and the breakfast was perfect! The rooms were very clean and for the price it was just what we were looking for as far as location and amenities. The landscaping... more

This is a really nice hotel..clean with a happy staff. The owners are nice folks too. more

I stayed here as an alternative to camping outdoors in a flooded and rainy campsite. So obviously this hotel was better than sleeping there. The room was very small, outdated, but provided a room at a bargain price. I wouldn't return here again. more
