Legong Keraton Beach Hotel Reviews

This was once a pretty good place. But I have to have a whinge... Finns night club has gone up next door. In Bali that is only 8 feet away. It towers above the hotel and the dughf dughf music thumps throughout the day from about 10:00am often until 3:00am the next day. It is so very very loud and there are so many people around. Also the beach is now full of hawkers and hundreds of people. Ok now for the hotel: the staff are lovely but service is painfully slow. Order food an hour before you want it (at least). Even boiling water takes over an hour. The rooms don't have a kettle. The showers are covered in mould and not cleaned well and the drains in the bathrooms stink to high heaven. The beds are very hard. Too hard for me. I have to sleep on pillows. The white linen and sheets are stained, grey and old. Every thing is worn and getting old. The outside furniture is old and breaking down. The cushions on the "lie lows" are old and thin (not comfortable). There are often heaps of dogs around the grounds (which are very lovely and we'll kept) The pool is nice and deep but I have seen some local workers bathing their kids in it. We also saw a long thin green snake about 6" from my foot. The staff were worried about the poisonous green snake but the security guy only chased it into the bush on the other side of my chair in the middle of the hotel grounds. Not sure about staying here anymore. Don't stay if you like your sleep and don't like booming dance music banging throughout the day and night. It is not quiet and peaceful any more. And you can hear the non stop music from your room. The ground floor rooms are probably better. You can do a lot better for the same money. It's not good value. Pictures show "Finns" (with bamboo and rattan) towering above the Legong reception (white rendered walls) and the breakfast alfresco area. Didn't post a picture of the mouldy tiles.
