Great location on the Hilo...
Liked: The setting of the facility was exceptional, on a cliff overlooking the shore with the sound of breaking waves. The dining area gave a beautiful look out into the ocean. The house has wonderful charm from a past era. The property has numerous fruit bearing trees which add to the ambience. The breakfast exhibited local fruit and a number of dining choices. (Get the macadamia coconut pancakes.) Plenty of parking and only a short walk into downtown Hilo. Innkeep was easy to communicate with and readily available.
Disliked: Our room was billed to accommodate four and had two double beds; but there were no closets and we lacked room to access four pieces of luggage. As we were only staying for one night, it was not a serious issue; however, if we were there for several nights, it would have been cramped for four folks.

Very nice classic B&B, great...
Liked: This is a classic B&B, great old home built in the early 1920’s right on a cliff overlooking Hilo Bay. Friendly hosts, wonderful views of the bay, great breakfast, comfortable well-appointed bedroom and plenty of easy parking. The B&B is just outside of downtown which is very walkable or very short drive. Overall, I highly recommend this B&B as a great place to stay while visiting Hilo.
Disliked: The long narrow hallway that extends straight back from the front door and divides all of the bedrooms, leads to the breakfast dining area. While the view of the bay is nice, the eating area is narrow and cramped, with four small tables secured to the wall sitting only two people each. Knowing the traditional design of big old homes built for large families, the original sitting room and dining room which probably overlooked the bay must have been converted into another bedroom, leaving this small awkward area for breakfast. Outside of breakfast time, it is not a very inviting area to chat with any of the guest which is one of the benefits of staying at a B&B, so everyone just stayed in their rooms. It would also be nice if they improved the landscaping of the front yard which was mostly unkempt and not an inviting view from the wonderful large front porch.
