pretty nice decor and lighting at reception/lobby area. we booked superior room but was upgraded without extra expenses to deluxe probably due to overbooking. our 2nd floor room balcony faces the beach but many trees blocked the other-wise perfect view of the sea.
the room and bathroom are great, nothing more i can ask for. will be perfect if there is in-room wifi. there is free wifi connection but only if you bring your own laptop to the lobby area.
i like the pool. water is warm, good if you are having a morning or evening swim when it is colder, bad if you need a cool swim in the hot afternoons. pool is on top (4th) floor and overlooks the beach, great for the sunset view.
breakfast is average but the restaurant provides a good view of the pool and beach while dining.
receptionist are professional and polite. i collected many brochures from the airport and a helpful receptionist kindly helped me call up the companies for bookings of activities. then i realised if i go on the streets and book through vendors the prices are much cheaper (bargain for it!)than if i followed the brochures pricing.
location-wise it's within walking distance to most parts of kuta, otherwise just get on a taxi or bike which are always readily available on the road outside. hotel is not that near some noisy pubs/clubs so at night it's considered peaceful.
