Such a true comment! They are always complaining about the mould in Bali. We just ignore it as you come to expect it really. I did a review on the Regent in Sanur after our stay there last July. Truly magnificent property, one of the best we have stayed in.
Yet a recent review (from an Australian with a Russian sounding name) rates it as Poor.
Some of their reasons for that terrible rating was:
"VERY remote location" (remote from where? Australia? Its smack dab in Sanur, 2 minute walk to Tamblingan)
"No real beach"( it's ON the beach. What did they expect? The Caribbean Sea?)
"Have to ask for everything 3 or 4 times"( yes, it's Bali. Keep asking you'll eventually get it)
" If you are not Asian, forget about breakfast choices" (I had cornflakes, toast, scrambled eggs or eggs benedict and a banana smoothie- not your classic Japanese breakfast!)
