8Very good
Christopher, Jan. 2024

Incredible setting and views. We loved the big Island and our base here in Hilo. Staff was friendly. Restaurant lacked kids meals despite lots of families. Property needs a paint job and is aging but in a changing tropics sort of way. The good way outweighs the less than perfect. Great music in the lobby and relaxing atmosphere. So close to waterfalls, volcanoes , black sand beaches and more.

2Poor
Awale, Dec. 2021

Location of the hotel was great. But the staff needs more customer service training, the bed sheets were not clean, and the room had aunts. They only had one towel in the room.
