I've stayed there 6 times. The last being in May 06. It's location can't be beaten. You are right next to gorgeous 5 star hotels and all the good restaurants but for a much cheaper price. With the cheaper price comes rooms that are a little tired but clean and functional, pool chair hogs - set your alarm for 4am if you want to get a seat near the pool or bribe the pool guy.
The hotel is owned by Germans and a lots of Germans and Austrians stay there and are treated much favourably than other nationalities. I can speak German and have been quite offended a number of times at the comments other Gernam speaking guests pass on others that they think can't understand what they are saying. Typical Germans!
The Pool Bar & Restaurant staff are lovely.
Restaurants you might want to try are la Lucciola, Ku De Ta, Loloan, Living Room, Khaima, Pauls Place, Mykanos, Warung Gulah, Sate Bali.....there are tonnes.
You must go to Bodyworks on Jalan Pettinget for a cream bath (head massage) boys and girls.
Enjoy your trip. You'll have a good time.
