... a couple of times over the past few years. We like the Baleka as its well located and the staff are friendly. We prefer the smaller places as you have the chance to get to know people over the course of your stay. We are heading back in 31 days but not staying there this time as we couldnt get a room (trying the Kusandi and Hotel Grand Kumala instead)
At the Baleka most of the time we have just stayed in the standard rooms which we find perfectly adequate - they are clean and for us just a place to sleep. On our last trip we stayed in the superior rooms and they are really nice - they were all mostly built over the past 2 years (some were just being finished when we were there last October). There are a couple of the older rooms they are considered 'superior' but we just asked for rooms in the new block and that was no problem.
I have a photo of the Baleka rooms layout here at: http://picasaweb.google.com/cyberbirth/BaliNusaLembonganOctober2007#5128770959465252514
however this doesn't show all the new rooms which are located in place of the older rooms between the lobby and the swimming pool.
Hope this helps :-)
Cheers
