DanieleItalyGood staff and clean hostel in Hilo
The staff is available and the hostel is clean.
The room has any lock in the personal box. Air conditioning can be useful. The price is a bit high for a hotstel.

- That the desk is staffed when you land, and that the room is held past cut-off.

Questions about Howzit Hostels Hawaii
What time is check-in and check-out at Howzit Hostels Hawaii?
Check-in is from 2:00 PM. Check-out is by 11:00 AM. If you're arriving late, tell us and we'll ask the property to hold the room.
Does Howzit Hostels Hawaii allow pets?
No — the property states that pets are not allowed.
Is there parking at Howzit Hostels Hawaii?
Yes — the property states that parking on site is free. Whether a space can be reserved in advance varies, so we check it against your dates.
Does Howzit Hostels Hawaii have Wi-Fi?
Yes — internet access is listed among the property's facilities.
Does Howzit Hostels Hawaii have wheelchair accessible rooms?
The property lists step-free or accessible facilities. That flag is the one least able to settle the question: a hotel can carry it and still have a step at the entrance, or a bath rather than a roll-in shower, and it does not say whether the accessible room is free on your dates. Tell us what you need and we'll ask the property directly rather than reading you the flag.
Can I check in late at Howzit Hostels Hawaii?
The property lists a front desk staffed 24 hours, so a late arrival should be possible. Standard check-in is from 2:00 PM. Rooms are still released after a cut-off at some properties regardless of the desk hours, so tell us your arrival time and we'll have them hold it.
How do I book Howzit Hostels Hawaii?
Put your dates in above and book online, or call (888) 789-8585 and we'll do it for you — including things a booking form can't handle, like a block of rooms, a monthly rate or an invoice for your employer.
