Independent, Hamakua Coast hotels

"Check-in/Front desk and Valet staff are friendly, professional and efficient. The room is clean, well appointed (mini fridge, microwave and coffee maker). The only two issues are the bathroom barn (door doesn’t glide well) and the patio door (only opened two inches wide). We did not inform staff as we managed to deal with it for our two night stay (one of which was pouring rain so moot point for the patio door). Otherwise, stay was good. "

"Check in was easy, host was great, everything was super clean and fancy, also loved the ping pong table !"

"It is unusual to find a suite with a real door, then an ocean view and two lanai’s. An especially amazing place, book a suite. It is worth double the rate!"

"We booked same day and had a room on the second floor with a king bed and balcony view right over the water! A beautiful view & the sound of the ocean was incredible to sleep to. Quiet cleaning service in the morning that doesn’t start until around 8:30-9am. For an older building, it’s well taken care of and very clean. Close to downtown Hilo, but fairly secluded from city traffic. Will definitely stay again! "

"Nice clean hotel, space was congested but overall good experience."

"Super friendly staff. It's a no frills sort of place-but so homey and sweet. Our family suite was a great size. Working A/C and great to have a kitchen. No TV in the room, but we weren't there to be inside all day-the beach is where it's at. The beach that you can walk to was so perfect for my family. Really enjoyed our stay. "

"Great stay"

"Everything!! Only note, the road noise was loud "
