It is horrible!! Stayed in 2 bedroom apartment beginning Sept. Booked for 8 nights - thought - Brand new hotel - must be okay for the money. The first room was putrid - fridge unplugged, door shut, with food still in it - all mouldy - almost threw up. Rubbish bin under sink - emptied but never wiped out - also putrid. Bathroom stunk.
We refused to stay in this room. They moved us to another one. This was a little better - fridge still unplugged - mould growing - but didn't stink and no bin under the sink. Bathroom still smelt a bit (but that is typical of a lot of Bali hotels). They have a small stove top for cooking - but no kettle and no cups or anything to be able to make tea/coffee.
The Hotel had only been open for a month - the rooms look as though they are ready for renovation. The paving stones that act as walkways have just been dropped - all wonky and unlevel. No padding on the timber pool lounges.
It is a shame because if they had just gone that little bit further they would have a nice hotel.
Would never stay again.
We were planning on shifting after two nights but ended up having to fly home due to emergency.
If you want somewhere in that vicinity - try the "Champlung Mas". They have just built a new part (not knocked the old part down yet). This looks really nice and very reasonably priced. We could not get in there as it was fully booked.
I hope this helped.
Enjoy your holiday.
Cheers.
