    Stayed for a week at Arron's while we traveled around the Big Island. Room was basic but very nice. The garden is great, it was a pleasure to sit outside in the morning and have breakfast. Alan is a very nice person. We chatted with him on most mornings and he gave us several suggestions on places to go and restaurants to dine at. Aaron's Cottage is located on a quiet residential street and is but a two minute walk to a local park with a nice beach. The airport is less than 5 minutes away and downtowm Hilo is only about 3 miles away. Would highly recommend Aaron's

    Lovely B&B

    Aaron's Cottage is a wonderful place to stay. Alan was so sweet and hospitable. He even cut open a coconut for us with his own machete! The rooms are large and clean and have a refrigerator. They have a fully stocked kitchen and a Weber Grill for bbq-ing so you can cook your own meals (a treat while you are traveling - hit up the nearby farmer's market for cheap fresh produce). And as a bonus there is an amazing beach just steps away. After staying here we went up to Volcano and really missed Aaron's cottage. With Hilo being only 25-20 minutes from Volcano I wish we would have stayed at Aaron's longer and just drove up to Volcano for a day.

    I stayed for two nights. Room was clean, breakfast was good the first morning, but better the second morning. Very close to the airport and Hilo. Good value.

    Good value for the money
