but for a first timer, the whole process can be a bit daunting. Safer option to use hotel, at least at first. And as I said, it is still a better rate than changing at home. I never use hotels, or street money changers. In Bali I use PT Central Kuta exclusively. But I wouldn't direct a first timer to use them, as it is further out of the way for many, even a taxi ride. Not worth it if you are only changing $100
