    Would be nice to be able to empty the ashtray, myself. And a bench in the smoking area would be nice

    Nice and clean. Very private location. The right to smoke in designated areas.Best mattress. Very comfortable.

    You may not bring friends or relatives to visit..only those registered are allowed...for me not an issue but might be for you ! Fine and eviction could result and the security camera would know if you brought in a friend....probably to keep the rural apartments very secure from the bad guys...it may sound extreme but uh it made me feel very safe..

    Modern, spacious,country setting, quiet,singing frogs,memory foam mattress,large fridge.reverse osmosis water, relaxing rural setting, I used stool for enjoying the balcony,, excellent security ,video camera for parking area and rental , 10 minutes to Pahoa and 18 minutes to Hilo,ceiling fan, we'll stocked with towels, pans,beach towel, rainforest on both sides..I would return here, and very good price for a furnished studio apartment of this size

    Very great value and not too far from tourist attractions. The place was clean and stocked with all the necessities. Grocery stores were about a 10 minute drive, Volcano National Park a 40 minute drive, and around 20 minutes to Hilo Downtown area.

    We didn't like the late check in at 4pm. It would've been more convenient to check in at 12pm and checking out later than 10am would've been better too. The ironing board wouldn't stay up on the stand. It kept falling, making it flat and harder to iron.

    We were able to come and go as we please. It was quite and felt like we were the only ones there. The code for the gate and studio worked out well.

    I wish there was a little trail and a covered sitting area on the property. You are either in your room or in your car leaving. It would be nice to have a little area to walk around when not going out.

    The code for entry was nice. One less item to keep track of.

    I have now uploaded screenshots of the text messages exchanged between the landlord and me, as well as photos taken when we checked out to demonstrate that we left the room in immaculate condition. However, the landlord is making false claims that the room was left messy. It is clear that he lacks credibility and is unlikely to remain in business for long. Additionally, during our five-day stay, there were only two guests, ourselves and a local resident who lived alone. We only saw the resident once since he worked the night shift and slept during the day. We had a friendly conversation with him, and he even recommended places to visit. So, where is the alleged complaint about us coming from? Furthermore, the resident informed us that the landlord's mother was temporarily managing the apartment while he was away, and she entered our room every day without our consent. We were perplexed as they did not offer cleaning services, and so we carried our valuables with us every day. There were no other guests during our stay, and certainly no children. The claim that we were speeding is ridiculous and baseless. The landlord is lying. We are very cautious when driving in unfamiliar areas and never exceed the speed limit, even in Canada. He is fabricating lies and even claiming that he is not the landlord, but that his mother is his employee. It's absurd. He has even made up stories about contacting our other hosts to request a refund, but we challenge him to provide evidence. It is clear that he is lying since he has no knowledge of of our other hosts. He claims to have video evidence, so he should provide it to prove his allegations. If he fails to produce any evidence, then he is slandering us, and his actions will harm his reputation and business in the long run.

    the location is no good. The location is very remote and far from the tourist attractions.To begin with, the apartment was situated in a secluded area, and it took us a considerable amount of time to locate it. Furthermore, the landlord was impolite and unhelpful. Despite the fact that soap was listed as an amenity on the website, when we requested more soap, he only gave us two small pieces and told us to take care of the rest ourselves. We required soap for our entire five-day stay, but he insisted on giving us only two small pieces and rudely asked us to leave when we persisted. After multiple requests, he reluctantly provided us with four small pieces of soap. It is disappointing that he is both stingy and rude in his business dealings. Although everyone can afford bar soap, it would be more convenient for guests if they are provided with it as they may not have the time to go shopping for it. We traveled all the way to Hawaii with great anticipation of having a relaxing and enjoyable time, and the warm hospitality of the Hawaiian people had already left a positive impression on us. However, the landlord of the apartment we rented was extremely inhospitable and discourteous, causing our entire trip to be ruined. We are sharing our experience with others in the hopes of preventing them from encountering a similar situation.
