They’ve done a great job updating/ renovating and making this a really cool space. Some street noise and courtyard noise because of old-school Hawaiian louvered windows- but it gives it that nice, local feel. Overall great vibe and was great for our short staycation. We’ll go back.

Receptionist lady has no business being in reception. First, she overcharged us for early check-in and changing room from second floor to first floor. We have a newborn and second floor was inconvenient. Second, she issued magnetic keycard and sent another guest to our room (room 101, May 29th 2025).

Try somewhere else

The 70's called and they want their hotel back. The facility was well out of date with an A/C unit incapable of doing the job. Shower head was at about chest level and there were stains and poor repairs done to ceiling and walls.

I was impressed by the remodeling done to the property from being owned by a different establishment in the past that wasnt known to be that great either. But SCP is definitely more than a step up from what it was in the past before being remodeled & rebranded. Lobby and front area looked clean, inviting, not too touristy but modern and down to earth at the same time. The room was right kn front of the koi pond and was very clean,quiet and relaxing. A good place to book if your looking for something laid back but not lacking professional hospitality uou look for in any hotel. M y only complaint is the staff. I didnt run jnto trouble with any of the staff untkl going back into my room after i had dinner out with a friend at about midnight and after 10pm the back and side entry ways are locked so the only way in is through the front lobby which is very open and lit. As I was entering with my guest,a woman behind the check in counter was someone i recognized as being an aquaintance of an old ex (yes Hilo is a small enougb town lol) but i had no odea she was employed at SCP. I wasnt worried, afraid or upset about who it was but as I walked in she glared at me and right there as she was on yhe clock, fully on a shift at the front desk at SCP, she makes a threat and calls me a degrading name while encouraging me to fight back. Althougn i somply ignored the public hostility and continued walking to my room, I was still shocked,disappointed and EMBARRASSED & that scared my frie
