Simple but clean Hotel/motel. Perfect for transit for one or two nights. Good room (we paid $50/night). Easy access to the streets and inspection of Hilo. Otherwise there is nothing. Read more

The photo of the hotel provides a completely different impression. It is very advantageous been photographed. It has, as noted in the headline, more like a motel than a hotel.HCLFHLThe pool was closed in the evening from 19:00 o'clock. A hair dryer was not in the bathroom find, as well as not, as usual, a small coffee maker. People should, for example, in a wheelchair to visit this hotel, it will be difficult, the small entrance stairway to overcome. Read more

Everything in that area is a bit rural (people love it or hate it) and the the location wasn't totally perfect--it was kind of off a highway--but it's a short walk to the ocean and close to Volcanoes National Park and Rainbow falls so it was perfect for us.

While there were some odd things about the stay - such as no coffeemaker in the room (complimentary coffee is available in the lobby between 5:00 and 7:00 am), vending machine and ice hours between 9:00 am and 9:00 pm and the fact I could hear the snoring of my next door neighbors - it is a clean, safe, comfy hotel.
