Restful sleep but dont expect much -free breakfast
Big rooms and bathroom. Love the bed and linens, allow me to sleep well during our one night stay prior to a morning flight. The free breakfast included has no protein. Just coffee, juice and small pieces of bread.

Good enough for a couple days
This Hotel is quite old, it needs an update. The rooms were huge, but had very little furniture so it was mostly empty. It had some really old wallpaper from the 90s or older and it was starting to peel in most corners. It looked and felt old. On the other side, it was clean, I wiped my finger on the furniture and there was little to no dust on either the desk or the bed frame. The bed was comfy enough, I've slept on worse. The shower had good pressure and the towels were pretty soft and clean. We had a great view of coconut island, which was fun to wake up and see every morning. The breakfast was a joke, it was a pot of oatmeal and bread. We got it for free with our room, but there was a fee if you did want it. We ate it the first day then skipped it the rest. Food was centered around the expensive steak house that was inside the hotel, so if you wanted a breakfast buffet, it would set you back even more. The location was great, 10 minutes from the Airport & Seaport; about 5 minutes away from downtown Hilo. Parking was free and pretty full on the weekend, but had plenty of parking during the week in their garage. I think if they invested in some new furniture and paint, this place would truly earn it's title of best place in Hilo, that they've won for like the last 5 years. Compared to other hotels in the area, I have no idea, so the others could be a lot worse.

The hotel was clean and the people friendly. The continental breakfast offered for two staying in one room was awful. The had mini crossants and doughnut hole or a nut bread that was cut very small with little flavor and an orange or apple. They also had a very gummy oatmeal. I was not impressed. We were given 1 container to share for our food which seemed very odd. The coffee was good.

Hotel smelled musty. Needs to be updated. Bed was comfortable a the room was clean. The continental breakfast was complimentary for only one guest but you could take as much as you wanted. It only consisted of poor quality banana bread and croissants, oatmeal, one type of fruit, milk, coffee and juice.

Got there early and they let me check in early that was an added perk. Other hotels want to charge for the early check in. Next time will spend more for an ocean view but the banyon view was nice. The only complaint would be the free breakfast was spare with just coffee/juice and a few muffins.
