Last June we stayed in one of their suites and were very happy with the accommodation. It very much depends on your own situation, whether you want to spend a lot of time at the hotel, lie around the pool etc. We are a couple in our sixties and it was fine for us as we like to be up and about, walking, shopping and being close to the beach.
Our suite was large and well appointed, with lots of storage space in a separate dressing area. The lighting in the bedroom/sitting room area was good, as were air conditioning, the TV on a swivel base, tea & coffee making facilities, and contemporary style furnishings. The hotel looks rather stark from the street, but the staff were welcoming, and we ended up eating at their restaurant many times. Great food, and lovely staff. Also, Wayan & Friends is just across the road.
We booked the accommodation through Balihotels and got a very good deal through them.
Depending on the season, you could just turn up, ask to see the rooms, and negotiate a good price. We stayed there last June and will definitely stay there again this year.
