I was not looking for a "low cost" vacation, but merely a reasonable cost stay for one transit night only. But the prices that Hilton wants to charge, are nothing short of exhorbitant, IMO.
BTW, I was hard pressed to imagine even one element of a Hawaiian vacation that cannot be had elsewhere for much less ... the only thing that I could think of was watching the active volcano on the big island.
