Bernie is incredible. She has a Swiss Army knife-like set of skills. She is thoughtful and…read moremeticulous. She is honest and upfront. She is hardworking and affordable. My wife and I needed help remodeling a condo in Hilo while we live off-island. This was an incredibly daunting task for us. Once Bernie agreed to work with us and we began to experience her attention to detail, reliable communication, and kindness, we quickly realized that we had hit the jackpot to have found her. She textured walls, painted, deep cleaned, installed flooring and trim, completely renovated our bathroom, crafted a beautiful tongue & groove closet from scratch, and gave a facelift to our kitchen cabinets, to name just a sample of what she did for us. She also provided intangibles, like her guidance and inexhaustible problem solving skills that have proven invaluable. We feel so fortunate to have found Bernie! She absolutely transformed our condo! It's difficult to express how extraordinary she is!

After a disaster with the movers who brought my stuff from California to Hilo (see my review of…read moreRoyal Hawaiian Movers for details), I had a bed and a futon that were, respectively, barely usable and unusable because the movers had lost critical pieces and couldn't put them back together properly. One attempted repair by a handyman the movers connected me with turned into a fiasco. In desperation, I turned to Iolani -- there not being a lot of furniture repair people in Hilo. Shanna saved the day. She repaired both items quickly, at shockingly reasonable prices. And she gave me a bit of useful info that, as a newcomer to the island, it would have taken me a while to figure out on my own. If Yelp let you give a business more than five stars, I would.

He was pretty knowledgeable and answered a lot of our questions. The bf and I browsed for what seemed to be hours. A lot of the stuff we liked were big or dangerous (i.e. knives & swords) and couldn't bring with us on the airport. Most of the items were super expensive. The bf ended up getting a small jewelry box for his mom. We had to buy something, the poor guy stayed opened late for us. Bryan's little chihuahua followed me around the store....cute.

The namesake of this store, Bryan Booth, is a very down-to-earth and hospitable guy. When I first…read morewalked in, him and his wife both warmly greeted me and we talked stories for a bit before I started browsing the store (which is expansive, by the way!) Later on, his wife asked if I wanted some water to drink and gave me a bottle of water right there and then! Das why I love my Hilo town. :) So full of aloha these people. The store is pretty expansive and takes up two large sections with a smaller sub-room in the back. He specialized in a lot of European and Hawaiian antiques and also performs restoration on some of the furniture pieces that come to him "less than desirable." A lot of the store is furniture antiques - tables, desk, chairs, display cases, etc. - but settled amongst these are smaller objects. Koa boxes, small ceramic figurines, koa bowls, dishes, etc. Prices will range depending on what you're looking for --- furniture started in the high hundreds on up. Keep in mind, that this isn't the Sally Store (Salvation Army store) or Goodwill and you're paying for items that rare/can't be found a whole anymore. Thus, each piece is priced accordingly. If you're interested in antique furniture, koa items, or local vintage Hawaiiana, I'd definitely recommend this place. There's free parking right in front of the store.
