3. I stopped at the Maui Seaside Hotel for 4 nights, the price is good, the location is good but the rooms are basic, I found this hotel to be a good base to explore the island, the drive to Lahaina takes approximately 35min and you will also find yourself centrally located for the drive up to the Haleakala Volcano, as well as the road to Hana, If you are going to Maui to explore the island then I would definitely recommend this hotel.
