I love the old Hawaiian look that the Wild Ginger Hotel provides. There were no fancy pictures or decorations but what they did have, gave me a sense of old Hawaii. I enjoyed every bit of staying there and I plan on staying there again.

I would stay far from this property. From the very first glance it appeared unsafe and should be ruled condemned. So sketchy I REQUESTED TO CANCEL. and was denied. 24 hour policy they say. They should consider closing while remodeling if that is what they are doing.

Loved all the natural plants. We were in the end unit and the floor was very slanted. The place was very dilapidated. A building of some kind right next to our room had almost completely fallen down. Seemed very unsafe in our room. No hot water and just a dribble in the shower. Drawers taped shut, etc. Actually hole in the glass window. Many things wrong.

Allowed me to make reservation after last allowed checkin time. They did contact with alternative method, by which time, had also expired. No stay, no refund. Scam and shady buisness.

The place is very old and in need of repair- which they appear to be working on. The room they gave us had no curtains and windows that would not close. They did move us to a room where these 2 things were taken care of but the rooms had no hot water. We were told we could shower in a lobby bathroom for hot water. They did provide a small breakfast in a comfortable area but would not stay here again.

Very convenient spot to swim the turtles by driving for a few minutes towards the airport, a great breakfast with fruits and homemade cakes, overall a very good deal if you enjoy staying in a vintage building with a bit reduced comfort

I stayed in a renovated room. the room itself was very nice and appointed well with a good mattress. there was a blanket but no sheet, just a bed sheet and blanket. no A/C - but didn't matter with a fan and windows open at night in hilo - very comfortable (and i sleep hot). the bathroom has a screen opening you can't shut - you will hear birds and frogs! the grounds and façade of the hotel are terrible so just be ready when you pull in because it looks dumpy. the staff was friendly. A big pro was I was a 5-10 min walk from Friday night market and restaurants so it was nice to not have to drive to get food and drinks. overall I recommend but know that it is old school property with few amenities but a good room for the price.
