We enjoyed our stay at this cute unit. It was located in a great part of town and made it easy to get to everything. The unit was just how the pictures showed.
The two things I was specifically looking for were a king size bed and a pool. The bed held up to my expectation but the pool was disapointing.The pictures showed a descent pool but we were never able to go in. Why would a unit remodel a pool in the peak season of travel to the island? The pool was a letdown.
The unit though was great!

Reviewer Comments:
Room was quiet, bed was comfortable. We got the best sleep of our vacation in this space. The only complaint we had is that the space was not generously appointed at all - all that was provided for our first shower was the tiniest bottle of shampoo and the tiniest bar of soap I've ever seen - definitely not enough for two people. My main comment for the property management company is that this may not be the place to save money, as it has a real impact on (tired, traveling) customers and it's such a minimal expense to resolve it.

We especially loved the beautiful view of the lagoon and river, and the park surrounding it. The room was clean and tastefully decorated. The kitchenette was well stocked. The air conditioning unit worked well and was much appreciated. The large bed was very comfortable. The location was very central and it was easy to get around town, driving and walking.The bathroom had a few issues, one being that the tub floor was flaky and warn looking, and the drain was very slow. By pulling off the stopper, we saw that there was a big wad of hair clogging the stopper. We couldn’t pull it out, but we encourage the owners to do so. The water drained perfectly when the stopper was taken off. Also, the lighting was not sufficient in the bathroom. It would benefit from light over the medicine cabinet so guests can see their faces clearly while grooming.On windy days wind would blow under the door very loudly. We encourage the owners to put some kind of blockage at the bottom of the door like we saw on other units. We solved the problem by putting towels at the bottom of the door.The first impression when arriving at the building was not great. It seriously needs a paint job. It was a little embarrassing to be dropped off at the building by our friend one day.All that being said, we would definitely stay there again. In fact, we said that we would live in the building in a larger one bedroom unit, if given the opportunity.

The condo was conveniently located, quiet, clean and bug free. There were some problems. The keys attached for the pool and parking were not physically labeled on the keys and were mixed up probably by the previous renters. The pool key didn’t work even when the security guard tried it. Though we were out quite a bit the tv was not cable. You needed passwords to use, which I did not have with me, and what was available was pathetic. We lost the internet for several days. The manager gave me directions on how to reboot but not in person. I had to figure out which was the modem and which was the router. The mini kitchen was adequately supplied however the lightening all around was terrible. The bathtub did not drain and we had to plunge and paint was flaking off the bottom.

My husband and I stayed for three nights, the studio is small but perfect for just two people, especially when being outside more of the time. The area around the apartment didn’t feel super safe at night time, but we were fine walking. Close to downtown and all within easy driving to the rocky beaches

The unit was as advertised. It was quite small. The only real negative was a lack of comfortable places to sit other than the bed. Exchange some of the little tables with a small loveseat.

The apartment was super cute, my husband and I had a great stay! It is quite small but if you’re out exploring a majority of the time and not planning on spending time inside then it’s not a problem! The building itself is outdated and smells like smoke but the aparwntment is very clean and updated. It’s also conveniently located near many beaches/lagoons, and downtown Hilo. It’s easy to find also being the tallest building in town. Overall we enjoyed our stay!!

We were thrilled to work with Saltwater Vacation Rentals to locate this adorable unit in the Hilo Lagoon Center for our short stay. It was beautifully decorated, very clean and super comfortable. The building has beautiful koi ponds, a pool and elevators for easy access. Its proximity to the vibrant downtown area, offering many restaurants, cafes, grocery stores and farmers market, was perfect for us. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend HLC 520 for future guests.

This condo in Hilo is a great find! Affordable, neat as a pin, perfect location, and quiet. The kitchenette is tiny but well stocked for cooking or heating up restaurant leftovers. Nice bathroom. My hubs and I love staying in walking distance to restaurants (don’t miss local coffee at Just Cruisin). Bonus location for this place is the lagoons and park just outside! We loved having cocktails on the balcony overlooking the park before walking to dinner downtown. Nature and small city vibes is perfection to us. Check it out!
