Situated on the north end of Lighthouse beach, signposted down the first passageway you come to. 1 minute walk to the beach. We paid Rp 900 plus tax per night in March - which is great value for a standard non-ac room with hot water. The spacious ground floor room especially the bathroom was immaculate compared to other beachside hotels... More

I made the mistake of booking this place, as we were travelling during peak season, & most of the hotels were running full.The only access to the hotel is by foot, through small alleyways, which I'd expected, since I'd read about it, but what was more disappointing was the service & the attitude of the staff.Firstly, when the staff arrived...

Rooms were cleaned daily and... More

Unfortunately photos can be deceptive. It looks quite modern from the images but its actually quite dated. The bedding was very old and stained and the majority of the shower curtain was mold. Location wise you have to navigate some tiny back alleys which isn't ideal. We were meant to stay for 6 nights but moved after just 2. There... More

A really lovely place, affordable yet with a fantastic pool, nice rooms and outdoor balconies or terraces. Really peaceful and friendly and just a two minute walk to the beach. For anyone on a budget yet wanting a treat, it does not get much better than this.

We stayed here in January 2010 and it was a lovely hotel. Friendly and helpful staff that went out of their way to help you. I would recommend this hotel for a relaxed stay in kovalm with a comfortable room with modern bathroom. Nice Pool Recommend air conditioning rooms very hot even with ceiling fan. Overall had a great stay... More
