room was in good condition. It was clean and comfortable. Bathroom was a little tight. we appreciate the water and warning about not using the water for drinking since it was not potable. The lady at check-in at the Tru-Value was very helpful. The remoteness of the property was concening at first but we walked around the surrounding area and that made us feel better about the property location.

Very nice room and friendly host. Breakfast consisted of a coffee machine, some fruit and a package pastry. Not what I expected given other places I stayed in Volcano. You pick up keys at a hardware store and I wish they had warned me that the charge on my credit card would be from the hardware store! Gave me a bit of a scare,

Staff at check in was courteous but it was overpriced for what it was. The place was tidy but the water out of the faucets wasn’t safe to drink, and though they provided drinking water it was not ideal. There were more beds than expected but the walls were pretty thin. Even though there were dehumidifiers running, it was pretty damp feeling. It wasn’t exactly the cozy cabin I was hoping for, and at this price I expected a bit better.

We weren't able to check in during the listed check-in times, but Tasha was able to accommodate us. After discovering all the restaurants in town were shut down before our arrival, it was a relief to find a couple snacks and fruits in a bowl waiting for us on arrival. The place was very clean and comfortable. The obly opportunity for improvement would bebetter signage feom the road.

The location is perfect for exploring Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Aside from the restaurants at the Volcano House in the park, there are good nearby food options in the village. The check-in staff were friendly and helpful. The room (a suite, actually) was clean and comfortable, with TV and wi-fi, in woodsy garden surroundings that featured a family of pheasants. The shower stall was tiny, which could be an issue for very large guests.

Very nice cabin for family. The treat basket was delicious with papaya, bananas, and danish. The 2 gallons of water were good for consumption. Catchment water was good for bathing and dish washing. Staff personnel are low stress with an easy process. We'll be back.

A soothing spot in the woods

After the noise, craziness, and heat of Waikiki, this was a welcome relief. We were in Wolfie 3, one of 4 units nestled in the trees and the sounds of the Coqui frogs. The unit provides plenty of room for two with a separate bedroom, bath, and sitting room. A great location to be near the volcano. The local tap water isn't potable, but high quality bottled water is provided. A soothing spot. I'm bad at directions so had difficulty finding the check in place (beyond the hardware store) as well as the unit itself.

The unit we stayed in didn't look anything like the photo displayed here. It was dark and very basic. We have stayed in several other Volcano rentals and this is not the best value. It was adequate for a place to sleep.
