Makai Beach Lodge

We were looking for a hotel within our budget, that had free breakfast/​wifi, and an ocean view. This hotel was one of the few that was in our budget. Outside, it looks really nice. The building is shaped different than other hotels, it has a hawaiian theme to it. The beach is right there, and there’s a pool and jacuzzi. Our hotel room’s look is something I won’t complain about because you do get what you pay for. However, I will complain that behind the furniture and in the corner is full of dust and debris. It seems like they sweep the floor into the walls. The room smells of mildew a little, but other than that it’s decent for the price.
Wifi, is a joke. It doesn’t work on my phone or my computer, and if it does start to work, it’s super slow. I was even at the front desk trying to connect and couldn’t. The breakfast isn’t anything special. See photos. Tupperware containers of questionable items, some bread/​bagels, and the 2 worst brands of cereal. The biscuits and gravy weren’t bad, though. The jacuzzi is also a joke. The week we stayed it was chilly, mid 60s, and so we changed into our bathing suits to get into the jacuzzi. Upon approaching it we realized that it was just dirty, leafy, cold shallow water (see photos).
Housekeeping was on point. Every evening when we returned, the bed had been made, trash was taken out, and the bathroom/​shower had been cleaned. Idk, we might stay again. It’s a shame the wifi and jacuzzi suck so bad.
