Hastinapura Residence

On our arrival the young men who met us couldn't speak or understand English very well, therefore a three way conversation via telephone was conducted. However, they were extremely friendly and helpful, if we requested anything they were very obliging, but we did have to remind them on several occasions to empty the bin in the room, change the towels and provide our complimentary water. The room was adequate. We attempted to organise breakfast, but again it was too difficult with the language barrier. The location not the best too far from Jimbaran to walk.

Pros: The beautiful lights in the hallway.

Cons: The reception, we felt we had to ring the bell every time we needed anything it wasn't often manned. There was no local info around.

Location: The location was not the best the hotel is in the middle of a local "residential" area. Jimbaran beach was too far to walk in the heat.

A great little quiet spot, great value for size and fit out of room. Important to note: no transport near by, must get a taxi or hire bike/car. Staff barely speak English so very difficult to communicate and the breakfast cooking quality was very very poor, a main disappointment. Rooms are NOT serviced daily, so we ran out of clean towels, toilet paper, tissues, clean glasses etc. Staff need more training, but as far as the room and facility goes - a great find.

chambre belle et spacieuse -- super piscine .. personnel très gentil, mais la communication en anglais pour le moins difficile -- Je suis resté en tout 5 nuits, mais personne n'est jamais venu faire la chambre ni même proposer de changer la serviette...
