The ambiance was so welcoming that I felt

instantly at home. Surrounded by vibrant greenery and serene sounds of nature, the atmosphere was perfect for relaxation. Diana, the host, was ever-attentive, sharing local tips and even offering fresh fruit from the garden. However, noise from other guests at times disrupted the tranquility.

Oh man, the curry in Hilo was a game changer! I devoured a plate like it was my last meal. Plus, the kitchen in my Deluxe King Suite had all I needed to whip up local favorites, and Diana was the best host, always ready to help. The water pressure for my long showers was just divine!

The walk from parking to the studio had me dreaming of a closer spot, and those tiny ants were like little uninvited guests. Also, a TV is nice, but we were left craving cable reception to catch our shows.

Diana was incredibly friendly and provided helpful tips on local attractions, truly enhancing my stay and allowing me to experience the best of Hilo.

The room had a noticeable presence of small bugs, which was unsettling at first and could be improved with better pest control measures.

I had a fantastic stay! The room was spotless and cozy, and the owner went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. The location provided easy access to attractions while still being peaceful. The common areas were great, too.

Enjoyed peace in a private and clean studio.

Also, I expected a welcome gift or at least a discount for the inconvenience, but heaven forbid! The drive to find the studio was an ordeal. almost gave a good review, but just couldn’t. this whole place was a letdown.

Big hype, little substance

I spent 14 nights in a lovely Deluxe Queen Room, enjoying a family-like atmosphere. Diana, the host, provided many local insights and a variety of fresh fruits for breakfast. The excellent labeling around the house made it easy to navigate late at night. Truly a wonderful experience with heartwarming hospitality!

mini fridge in each room, keypad lock on front door, thriving garden

The bathroom could use more counter space for personal items!!! I noticed noise from other guests could be bothersome at night, so consider soundproofing options!!! Additionally, a better Wi-Fi connection wouldn’t hurt!!!

The spacious Queen Studio offers a high degree of privacy, complete with kitchen facilities that make it easy to prepare your own meals. It also features a unique entry with a surfboard sign that becomes easily recognizable after your first arrival.

The property has only one bathroom serving multiple rooms, which can be inconvenient when the place is at full capacity. Additionally, reaching the driveway for the studio isn't as clear at night as it is during the day, and occasional bugs can be found around the premises, making it a bit uncomfortable at times.

The property had a lovely atmosphere, enhanced by the surrounding greenery and flowers, creating a serene environment. The room was well-equipped with a mini fridge and kitchen access, which made preparing light meals convenient. Conversations with the host and other guests added a personal touch, making the shared space enjoyable. However, the location's distance from parking and occasional noise from other guests were slight drawbacks.

It was just a decent option for a momentary visit in Hilo with all in all brilliant value for money. The friendly atmosphere was enhanced by Diana's tips on local attractions, making it feel more like home. Make sure to check the kitchen appliances before use to ensure everything works properly.

but the other guests were a little noisy at times. we really appreciated the mini fridge available in our room, the lovely garden around the property, and the friendly advice from Diana on local attractions.
