No. 5 is a great stand alone cabin. Josh, the caretaker, was able to bring us extra pillows. It fit our needs. I would recommend a better, firmer mattress. It was very hot in the cabin when we first got there. I would recommend getting the A/C on at least two hours before check in time. An exhaust fan in the bathroom would also help.

On the first look the room was clean and it looked quite nice but the floor was not really clean and the blanket I had to sleep on had a few stains on it. Also my neighbours threw a big party in the next room and were really loud with a lots of people and they also stole a car. And if theres no party you hear everything your neighbours do and I mean „everything“. The wifi in my room was also non existent. But on the good side the room had some free snacks and it‘s located in a Beautiful spots and the most people living there are nice. Apart from the stains on the blanket and the crumps on the floor the room was clean and I‘m sure it was just bad timing that the party was during my stay. For eating there you have to buy yourself something or order delivery which is ultra expensive there.

Great spot for a visit to the rocky beach just a few minutes walk. That was a pleasant surprise. Also have accessible kitchen. Nice quaint little place.

We paid $162 per night. The previous week we had stayed in an absolutely beautiful 9th floor condo in downtown Hilo for $160. We booked Aaron's cottage thru Expedia and it did not say shared kitchen nor did it say in the description. When we got there the kitchen was disgusting - dirty greasy dishes, etc. It also smelled of old grease. Someone really needs to thoroughly clean it. Also, in back of the building there was junk and garbage laying around. The smoke alarms in our room were missing and there was supposed to be a snack pack. All we got was water and coffee. The shower did not have a surround so everything in the bathroom was wet. The bed linens smelled horribly of whatever detergent was used. I think The place was worthy of $60/night. So disappointing! The one good thing is that the bed was comfortable.

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.

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

Inside the college was a small cable that’s OK but gave me too hard chairs that are folding up chairs very uncomfortable. Do you have Roku TV so I had to use my cell phone to watch movies?

Love Aaron’s! Perfect stay for a solo traveling.
