I would definitely NOT recommend Waiakea Villas! The rooms double as homes to families of very bold cockroaches and the front desk service is terrible. The "hotel" is a combination business park/apartment building/hotel, and all three are mixed in together. Our room was right across the hall from a young man's apartment and he had late night parties that were very loud. That didn't make for a very restful night's sleep. Close to downtown Hilo, shopping, restaurants, etc. but that's about its only saving grace. I would not stay there again on a bet.
