First time at a bed and breakfast

This was our first time ever at a bed snd breakfast. I wasn't sure what to expect. I'd say Intimate would be a good word, and friendly. Laurie the owner welcomed us personally, and there were two other couples there. The morning communal breakfast gave us a taste of the local fruits and breads, all hand preparec. The room was comfortable and while there's no A/C, there was no need due to the local nighttime climate. It wasn't near the downtown district, but turned out to be a plus. If you visit Hilo, I highly recommend Old Hawaiian Bed and Breakfast! Thanks for great 2-day stay.

My husband and I stayed there for four nights and we had the most wonderful time there. Every morning was a different type of fresh cut fruit, mostly grown in the property and home bake goods. It was delicious! The room was small but comfortable and was exactly what we were looking for. The property and location was great too. It was a 10 minutes walk to rainbow falls and 5 minutes drive to downtown Hilo.

In a quiet, pretty residential neighborhood but not far from places to see and eat in town. It was such a nice sanctuary after driving in town traffic and loved falling asleep to the sound of frogs. Relaxing room and nice bathroom; no television, but was able to stream on our laptop with the wifi. Breakfasts on the lanai were lovely. Was introduced to some new tropical fruit, and Lory made two kinds of delicious baked goods each morning and sweetly offered to pack leftovers for us to take on our outings. Would absolutely stay here if in Hilo again!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is located well above Hilo in a very quiet neighborhood. We walked up the road 1/2 mile to see the Boiling Pots on the river and also admired the varied uses of hardened lava in people’s landscaping. The breakfast was sumptuous! Two kinds of homemade breads, a fresh smoothie, tropical fruit cup, yogurt and eggs. Welcoming and accommodating hosts. Next time we will opt for a larger room than Bamboo, which is small for 2 people.

great stay

This is our kind of BnB - simple but everything we need, quiet and natural surroundings. The lanai is shared between the three rooms and has a small fridge, microwave, and electric kettle. Breakfast featured fruits picked from the trees on the property.

Old Hawaiian B&B is a great option

The owner, Lory, was kind, courteous, a great baker and a wealth of knowledge about the island. Her B&B is in a great location to see the sites that Hilo has to offer. We had a wonderful experience!

We stayed in the smallest room, which was the only one available for our dates. Bathroom was tiny, but bedroom was fine, with a king bed. Absolutely everything you would need is there, or on the common porch, from guide book to umbrellas to insect repellent to beach towels…you get the idea. Common fridge on the porch, along with microwave, dishes, kettle for tea or hot cocoa.beautiful backyard stretching to the river, very peaceful. Breakfast consists of a fruit smoothie or fresh squeezed juice, a lot of fresh fruit, boiled egg, 2 types of delicious homemade bread and/or muffins, yougurt, coffee or tea. Our hostess- you only see her at breakfast unless you call her, is very pleasant and informative. Walking distance to Boiling Pots, and 2 minute drive to rainbow falls. Maybe 5 minutes to downtown Hilo.very enjoyable, relaxing stay. Would definitely stay again.
