Good Value for Bali-Ubud Hotel
I booked this hotel at the suggestion of some other friends I am traveling with. Its location is relatively convenient in Ubud, with hourly shuttle service to town center. Do not be deceived by the appearance of the accommodations as individual bungalow, the qualities and layout of each one could vary quite a bit. I am reasonably satisfied with my room, but others from my group are not so happy with theirs. Also be warned that the bungalows are scattered all over a very steep river valley. The view is nice but not so great if you do not like hiking up a steep slope every time to get from your bungalow to the lobby, especially at night when the paths are dark.
Also be warned that the hotel has very poor wifi/ internet service, (I know we go to Bali to getaway from all that) but just in case you have the urge to plug in your ipad this is not the place!
The swimming pool is also on the small side, even for Ubud and definitely not for a Spa Hotel.
The spa is located at the bottom of the sloping site, and decorated like a "Grotto" or Cave. It's an interesting idea for decor, but to navigate across over-sized rocks and boulders in order to get into the jacuzzi is not exactly my idea of a relaxing experience at a spa.
Worst is the service, I requested a wake up call on my departure date and they forgot !!! Fortunately I set the alarm on my iphone as back up, so I did not miss the taxi to the airport.
