Hilo Reeds Bay Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Good value and quiet."

SCP Hilo Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Older hotel, but very nicely maintained. Beautiful pool area and easy walk to a large number of excellent restaurants, park areas, and the bay. Room faced the front of the property and had a great view. Very eco friendly and offered free equipment use for paddle boarding in the bay across the street. As the building is quite old, some of the upper floors are likely not easily accessible if you have mobility issues, but the first floor rooms would be great. In room air conditioning worked well and the ceiling fan was excellent to keep the room comfortable. Had a small balcony with 2 chairs, but was big enough for 4 people to stand at the railing and enjoy the morning sun rise."

The Inn at Kulaniapia Falls

10/10 Excellent

"Love this place, we’ve stayed here repeatedly for years and it simply gorgeous! Had a little trouble with the kayak rental though. There wasn’t an attendant or anyone to help with getting the kayaks in or out of the water. Sliced up my toe pretty good trying to drag the damn things out of the water. Luckily there were some other guests to help!"

Hawaii Magic Skies B&B Farmstay

6/10 Okay

"Beautiful hotel.We noticed a great deal of attention to detail.The animals were wonderful.Setting was peaceful.There was one issue.I asked the day before arrival if I could check in at 2 since we had an excursion starting at 4.Josh was at a graduation but we called him and he was able to give us the code.We dropped off our things and left.We returned at 11 pm and noticed the room had only 1 bed.We registered as a group of 3.There were only 2 towels.I didn't want to bother anyone so late so my son slept on the floor and we roughed it with the towels.Next morning we left early.I texted Josh and asked why the room was only set up for 2.I mentioned the bed and the towels.His reply was that there was a rollaway in the LR.I texted back that I was disappointed that the room was not ready for us.No reply.That evening we were sitting in the LR and Josh came in, introduced himself and wanted to know why I was disappointed.I repeated the missing items.He got very defensive and said it wasn't his fault and I shouldn't have booked that room.I told him the website said it slept 3.He kept repeating it wasn't his fault.He didn't know we were 3 people.He blamed the owners for not telling him.He blamed me for coming when he wasn't there. He was upset that I came in late that first night.He was concerned that I would give him a bad review.He walked away in a huff.Later I texted that an apology for the mixup would fix the situation.No reply.So the missing stars are because you couldn't say sorry"
