I stayed at Bakungsari in March last year.
The safe deposit boxes are behind the reception counter. It's a wooden cupboard with little locked compartments that are double keyed. From memory, no metal box inside, so you may want to take your own little cash box or something to put in there.
Yes, you have to involve reception every time you want to access your safe deposit box as they use a key of theirs and your key to open it for you.
You'll have access to it for as long as reception is manned. Can't remember if it's 24hour or not as I used ATMs and rarely went near my safe deposit box for the 3 weeks I stayed there.
Outside the main entrance and carpark, make sure you try the sate across the road on the corner. Chicken or goat - very tasty. The little warung to the left of the sate is good and does take away packs if you wish. Also, outside the carpark and to the right is Warung Nikmat which is fantastic food and cheap as well.
Never stayed at Fave Hotel, so can't help on that one.
