Aaron’s Cottage

It was very relaxing staying at Aaron's Cottages. The bed was comfortable for a good sleep. While the room hadbits own coffe maker there was a community kitchen that you could use to make youf own meals. Overall a good experience.

I love having access to a kitchen and laundry, plus proximity to the sweet little features on this side of Hilo. It would be nice to have a comfortable sitting chair in the room, and a better place to hang clothing.

I enjoyed my stay at Aaron’s Cottage. I especially loved having access to a kitchen so I didn’t need to eat out for every meal! It was clean, comfortable, simple, and cute. I would stay here again.

Excellent stay. I did have trouble with the code to the door that was left for me. But the Owner/Mgr. took care of that within minutes. If anything was negative was that dang rooster!!! Woke me up every day between 430-630Am. (but I did notice that the whole state has wild roosters, and chickens running around, so not the fault of Aarons Cottage's). Room was great, very quiet (only 5 of 10 rooms), clean, room looked just like the photos minus the floor fan. It had everything, I had everything I needed, and it was as advertised! Great location close to everything, yet far enough from the Hussle and Bussle. Price was great, and I would stay here again.

We stayed at Aaron’s Cottage for three nights in room 8. This room shares walls on both sides. The walls don’t block out much noise, but he other guests were quiet enough so it wasn’t a big problem. The room was clean except for the floor. I did not want to walk around barefoot. It was not hot during our stay, but the room was exceptionally humid all the time. Everything in the room was wet continuously. It didn’t matter whether the windows were open or closed and the ceiling fan was always on. I couldn’t wait to go home to dry out. A dehumidifier would have been a tremendous help. I probably won’t stay here again for that one reason. Humid outdoors is one thing, but indoors should be comfortably dry. The location of Aaron’s Cottage worked out well for us. It is very close to a tiny hidden beach and close enough to the rest of Hilo, but you’ll need a car. The drive to Volcanoes National Park is less than an hour. The backyard was nice with lots of trees and places to sit. The shared kitchen could be helpful, but we didn’t use it. There’s a coffee maker in the room with some coffee, which is appreciated. There’s also a mini fridge in the room. Communication was great! Check-in was simple and the door code was sent via text. WiFi is very weak and drops often.

I love the ease of checking in to our unit. This is our third time here and we have always been pleasantly impressed with our accommodations. Simple and comfortable.

Price was lower, but you get what you pay for. Bathroom faucet barely gave water & there were bugs in the room, but otherwise clean. Manager was responsive & apologetic & promised to fix things when we left. However, nice location with Secret Beach walkable at the end of the street! Rowdy rooster comes free of charge, so bring your background noise app.

We booked a 2-bed but arrived to a 1 bed so we had to pay the extra (with a bit of a discount for the mixup--Hotel still probably would have been a more affordable option if i had known but it was non refundable). Toilet didn’t work unless we manually pushed the valve to refill the tank each time. But we did have access to a washer and dryer, which was nice. Loved that the beach was in walking distance and the deck at the end of the night was lovely.

For budget friendly trip it worked. Location in Hilo good for beach goers. Shared kitchen worked, room could be updated but worked for three people
