Verbesserungswürdig: Sauberkeit
Dark, shabby and depressing
A dark and depressing place in a remote, half-closed and dilapidated former resort which shut some years ago. The abandoned lodge and other communial resort buildings were sorry sights with their roof tiles half blown off and a collapsed wooden staircase. This studio was shabby and the furniture had seen better days, including the pull-out sofabed which was as lumpy and uncomfortable to sleep on as a wash-board! The place lacked a proper, complete set of clean dishes, cups and glasses, not to mention decent cutlery. Most annoying was we were allocated only one roll of toilet paper! Yes!! Good quality info on what to see and do on the island was lacking. There was a minimalist bit of dog-eared blurb left on the table which on the back page said rather cheekily: "Leave the house cleaner than you found it"! Even a few promotional brochures from local suppliers and services would have been helpful on things like where to rent snorkels, find a guide, whale-spotting sites, hikes, history, where not to walk/drive, local wildlife, sites, and most importantly, local political/tourist sensitivities. On the positive side, the beach was empty and beautiful. You need a car to reach the unit and get about the island. The sea had a strong current and undertow so not great for swimming during our visit. Don't expect to feel welcome on the island. Molokai is the first to tell you when you arrive that it wants tourists to 'Visit, spend and go home'! We did!
