I wasn't sure where to start with this review (I rarely write about any place so bad) but then I read the review by sweiserw and realized - I don't need to write much because their experience was almost exactly the same as ours. Reserved on VRBO (not FRBO). Showed up and saw what looked like a pretty sleazy place.... more

We stayed at the Hilo Country Club for two nights in March. The first night we had a terrible room. It was not as clean as I would have liked and it faced a noisy parking lot with a VERY noisy fan just outside the lanai that kept us awake at night. We actually considered pulling out the sleeping bags... more

Back in December, I reserved a studio condo at this complex through a website called frbo.com (not to be confused with vbro.com). I viewed the attractive color pictures from every angle, and everything looked satisfactory. Of course the price was very low, but we'd been in Hilo before and knew that the tourist infrastructure was, to say the least, undeveloped.... more

I have lived on the Island of Hawai'i for over 17 years - coming here from Oahu. This is the first place I stayed and I still strongly recommend them. There have been some management changes over the years but this has never affected the service. Some rooms are better than others due to private ownership at some point. The... more

My partner and I stay at Country Club Condo Hotel every year and have been staying there for the last 4 Winters. When I read the "nightmare" reviews - this has not been our experience. We stay on the 5th floor, in a room without a balcony but big windows, lots of light and a nice view. The room is... more

I would have rated this "terrible" but save that for something truly horrible, which this was not. The earlier reviewer, who commented on being very apprehensive as they checked-in, took the elevator, and walked down the hall, only to have all turn out right once they entered their room, set the tone for our visit. The exception was that all... more

I live in Hawaii and have stayed at various hotels in Hilo over the past several years. In my opinion, this is the best place to stay in Hilo. The rooms were very nice and clean, the staff was friendly and the prices were pretty good. It's centrally located and near the Hilo airport with a nice view of Hilo... more

My family and i stayed at this property April 2007. For the price you can not beat this place. The rooms we rented were clean and very nice. The staff was the best ever. Security was good with someone checking the parking lot all night. I did not hear any noise from the bar down stairs. The rooms have kitchen... more

We just got back (1/14/07) from a trip to Hilo and would not recommend staying here. Being a Hawaii resident, I could tell from the parking lot that it appears that the majority of the parking stalls were occupied by residents and not visitors (very few rental cars). Although I did not ask or was told, I suspect that this... more
