**Best Little Value Hotel in Hawaii**
We absolutely loved our stay at the Ginger. It felt like we were sleeping in the trees. The air was crisp, cool and fresh. The bedroom was clean, comfortable and fun. The bathroom was basic but has everything we needed. Hot water took a few minutes to arrive but that didn't bother us. *Tip - There is also a guest lobby bathroom that has instant hot water. Overall, we absolutely would recommend this hotel to anyone really looking to get connected with the culture and community. May not be the best selection for thus looking for a hotel they can lounge in all day. The Wild Ginger offers a wonderful unforgettable stay for thus adventurous value travelers types like us : )

This hotel may have been charming in my 20s but was quite lacking. The photographer did an amazing job of making the rooms look nice. I can’t recommend and we chose to drive back to our condo instead of staying there.

It’s a lovely old school hotel with lots of character. The free breakfast is great offering fresh fruit, bagels, coffee and juice. The staff are very nice and helpful, special thanks to Jason who told us all there is to do on the island and the best places to eat his recommendations were great. Overall very happy with our stay.

I liked the staff and the plants around the property. My husband had no hot water. There was a mold in the shower and a moldy shower curtain. The edges of the rugs in the room were curled, which caused me to trip in the middle of the night. They are a liability and should be removed.

This property was unmaintained, worn out, uncleaned, and unsanitized at all. There were dead bugs all over the room, no hot water, window frames were twisted, and plugged with plastic bags, and moldy bathroom. I do not recommend this property.

I knew I was in trouble when I pulled up and saw a building that had seen better days. Old palm leaves hung from the roof, a non-working military vehicle was parked on the side of the parking lot, and the parking lot itself was covered with large potholes. When I checked in, I saw ear plugs and asked if it was because of road noise (it backs into Highway 19). The clerk said no, it's because birds are noisy in the morning and frogs at night. My room was on the end, backing into the highway. With no AC, you have to leave the windows open. There was no TV and no internet in the room. The hotel looked like it was built in the 1960s and had not seen any maintenance. In Hilo, the rain and humidity play havoc. You have to stay on top of things or they go downhill quickly. Pipes in the bathroom were full of rust, and the baseboards had noticeable termite damage. I've stayed in some dives, but this one is about the diviest. Just because you have a few carved tikis in the foyer doesn't make ti quaint. The bedding did look clean, I'll give them that. I left and drove back to Kona - I was not going to endure road noise all night long!
