“Dangerous”
+POTENTIALLY ILLEGAL RENTAL. Short version- this property is dangerous, unsafe and potentially an illegal rental. I left immediately upon seeing the conditions and am seeking a full refund.
−Everything. Property is filthy. Stairs are clearly unsafe and home built. There are no locks anywhere- the owner literally told me to shove a piece of pvc pipe in one of the roller doors.

“Nice nature, won’t recommend for solo female”
+The bed was comfortable and lovely nature outside
−As a solo female I didn’t feel safe. It’s also far from towns so it feels a little isolated.

“It's not a 4 or 5 star hotel but the price isn't either.”
+The location was reasonably close to Hilo, 11 miles, where we needed to do many things and other places we needed to get to.
−The bathroom could have been bigger and the shower was small with two shower heads and low water pressure. There was makeshift door locking (pipes in the tracks) while in the room and a padlock outside the back door when you leave. Although we didn't feel the need to lock up when we left.

“Unless you are in a serious money crunch and dont mind a rustic stay, look elsewhere.”
+There was a friendly old lady that gave me some eggs.
−The room had 2 doors to the outside but no locks. The bed was uncomfortable. The room was kinda clean. I did not get the wifi password sent until the next morning. I only stayed 1 out of the 3 nights that I had booked, and rather checked into a hotel to have reliable wifi and a lockable and clean space.

“Avoid like the plague”
+Nothing.
−Doors don't lock. More security cameras than a bank vault. Owner claims it is safe despite feeling like you're in a cartel drug compound. Room had chicken wire at the bottom of the incomplete wall and spider webs for days. Apparently there's snakes around the property as well. Me and my Mrs didn't end up staying after we saw the state of the property and the fact that you can't lock the room to sleep in or leave your valuables in is a massive red flag. Honestly I've never felt so unsafe in any accomodation, and I've stayed in multiple third world countries around the world.

“Exceptional”
+The host was an absolute gem,truly one of the sweetest and kindest people I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. She went above and beyond to make my stay special, bringing me breakfast every morning with such care and warmth. On the day of checkout, her thoughtful assurance that there was no need to rush made me feel so valued and at ease. The property itself is beautifully secluded, offering a serene retreat away from the hustle and bustle. That said, I’d highly recommend arranging for a rental car, as the distance from the airport and the remote location can make transportation a bit tricky. While ridesharing options like Uber may be available, they’re not always reliable here and could end up costing more than the convenience and freedom of having your own car.
