Guest review

4.0

This is a run down hotel in a run down building. A business center and restaurant occupy the spacious ground floor. However the ground floor is completely vacant. The building has a very modern design But has been exposed to excessive water damage at some point. The lounge seating is filthy with moths flying out of it. The counters of the ground floor had frequent, large, cheaply-repaired cracks; and, exposed, duct-taped wiring. The walls of the hotel floors above, seen from the lobby, have large splotches of water damage. Most places are bathed in natural light, but where the daylight can't reach, a few hundred meters or so of corridor, it's light by the weakest petro station style lighting. The room doors are shrunk in from the jabs; and, filthy from the waist down. Inside, door jabs are just exposed wood. The room itself is just like the rest of the building, modern but neglected until recently. It's a fault spacious room for one person. There's calcium cascaded all over the bathroom. Rust staining on and around the toilet. Rust staining on the room door. The CEO mural, however, is in perfect condition. As is the coffee set-up and the closet. I checked the bed linen immediately--since I was asked for a Rp50k cash deposit:, dirty and stained. The only other good thing about this is there were no horrible or weird smells; the bathroom door was on perfect condition; the closet was specious and had a dresser; and, there is a chair and a wide desk with plenty of outlets.

Good value, tired room

I needed a short day stay due to a long connecting flight. This hotel has gone down hill since it's first opened. The location on Sunset Rd is quite convenient, but room is tired looking. Good value if you're willing to compromise on the comfort.

Berry Biz Day Trip Stay

8.0

It was a day trip so we didn't sleep the night. Generally the staff was really friendly, they gave us a free upgrade and welcome drinks. They had a very chill and spacious cafe to do work and have some food which was very convenient. The location was a few minutes away from 66 beach and it was pretty easy to get around on grab or the hotel could call you a driver. Since it's a relatively new hotel there's still some work being done, the common areas on level 2 when i was there have a very industrial / minimalist vibe since theres not much decoration around. The rooms were pretty spacious and they have various charging points all around the room which was good. They also had very motivational quotes as the room themes. Its not super fancy but it's affordable and comfortable.

Service has room for improvement. Okay otherwise

8.0

We liked the decor of the rooms, but didn't like that they had a strange musty smell when we entered. The property seems well maintained in general. The restaurant is actually quite nice, and serves delicious food. We weren't disappointed with anything that we ordered. There was an issue at the restaurant when one of day managers made an issue adding to restaurant bill to our room claiming we hadn't paid a deposit, which was rude, and also wrong since we had actually paid a deposit (they wouldn't let you check-in otherwise). We complained about it but no corrective action was taken, nor did anyone apologise for that. There isn't much to see or do at a walkable distance of this hotel. Overall, an okay hotel. Service could use some improvement.

Basic, cheap, clean, on a big road

The hotel is basic and cheap. The cleaning staff was amazing. The service is good. There was construction work going on in front of my window, quite noisy.

Nice and affordable hotel

The hotel room is bright, clean, with nice view. The traffic on the road outside is so busy. It is located quite far from the beach.
