Hawaiian Hideaway w/ Yard < 2 Miles to Hilo Bay!

Dated furniture, fridge, very uncomfortable couches. Need a tv in the main bedroom and have a larger tv in the living room.

Very quiet and peaceful area... lot of privacy, homely feeling. Surrounded by greenery, a country life.

the house was very enjoyable

Nice house slightly rundown. Sofa you could feel the springs. Downstairs bedrooms were dark. Should be noted bedroom three has twinned and crib not a full sized bed. For the price was a decent value. The house was well stocked with everything you’d need for a stay. We felt safe but the neighborhood doesn’t seem picturesque, it is convenient to Hilo town.

Overall it was acceptably clean, I too live in Hawaii with open windows and know what to expect. Given the price, this was more than I expected and I enjoyed my stay immensely. The decor was well done and very esthetically pleasing. Fixing the window screens and cleaning the livingroom a/c unit would seem to be an easy fixes to improve the property.

Poor quality. Pictures are deceiving. Couches smell like body odor. Torn window screens or no screens at all. Window sills are dirty and paint is peeling off. Front door doesn’t secure completely. Cob webs downstairs. The ceiling fan is falling out of the wall. Crumbs on top and at the bottom of the toaster. Coffee pot with ground remnants and a brown glass pot. Pots and pans are scratched up. Paint over laminated counter tops is peeling off. Stove top is clouded and scratched up. Refrigerator is scratched up. Dried brown something spilled on the cabinets and is still there. Bedroom downstairs stinks. Throw rugs are stained. Bath towels are frayed. White kitchen cabinets show how dirty this place is. Low water pressure. Trash outside was overflowing. Walk through water and mud to get from car park to front door. Plenty of space, it’s quiet, decorated nicely, and is walking distance to stores and restaurants. Seemed to be a safe neighborhood.

satisfying

This was one of the worst rentals we ever stayed at. Some parts of it were just grungy but all of it needed a good cleaning and replacement of bug screens. We chose not to contact the host about this as we were only staying for a few nights and spent all our time sightseeing. The A/C mainly created noise without getting the inside of the house to a comfortable temperature. Would certainly never stay there again

We arrived to the property and couldn’t stay. The house was not as expected. The house was stifling hot with only window AC units in two of the rooms and they didn’t even blowing cold air. There was little to no air flow in the house and very few windows could be opened. The house was filthy, food in the cupboards, countertops were falling apart, dirty floors, stove, and dead bugs everywhere. We left immediately and filed a claim, to which they denied. This entire experience was a nightmare. I hope this review will save someone the trouble and money spent to this terrible company. I will never rent from them again.

It was a wonderful house and we really did enjoy our stay. But the floors were still pretty dirty, you could actually see some dust bunnies around the corners and edges and we had a 1 year old crawling around. The freezer had grass in it and there were food crumbs on the shelves in the fridge. We really did enjoy our stay though, thank you!

House is very huge it is a very good location big room big livingroom shower rooms is excellent it is only view minutes walk to stores and gas stations We enjoy the yard and we really enjoyed our stays. I will come back to you evolve Thanks to Rachel the house watcher for responding right away to our calls. Mahalo Nui Loa

We liked the location as it was walkable to some decent restaurants and a market. The place is an older, fairly spacious home with some designer upgrades here and there to make it comfortable. Appliances are older with some wear and tear, but mostly functional. Beds were very comfy and my wife loved the pillows. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils, pots and pans, etc. for any cooking needs, but we didn't really make meals during our stay. There were a couple cleanliness issues which I have communicated with the property contact and I'm hoping was just a one time thing. Overall, I'd use the words adequate, sufficient or satisfactory. Not a lot of wow factor, but it is a cute home and it worked out great for us.
