The hotel was in a strategic location, making it easy to access the airport and major shopping areas in Balikpapan. While the rooms were spacious and comfortable, I did notice some cigarette smoke lingering on my floor. The service was friendly, but there were moments when it didn't quite meet my expectations in terms of professionalism. Dining was a mixed bag; I enjoyed an excellent omelette outside, but the atmosphere in the restaurant left something to be desired due to the smoke. Overall, the hotel provides good value for money despite some areas needing improvement.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel, which is conveniently located close to the airport and shopping areas. The rooms were spacious and clean, making for a very comfortable experience. However, I did notice a torn curtain, which was a bit of a letdown. The service was friendly, but the inconsistency in the staff's attire raised some eyebrows. Overall, it's a good value for the location and room quality.

The staff was absolutely friendly and helpful, always making sure my credit card status was open and frequently asking about my deposit. However, the staff wore black pants/skirts and white shirts, which seemed a bit mismatched, suggesting the quality of services could be more standard.

I had a decent stay at the hotel. The location is fantastic, very close to the airport and major shopping areas. The room was spacious and had complete amenities, but the air conditioning didn’t work well and the lighting was a bit poor. The service left something to be desired as staff seemed uninterested and weren't helpful with tourist information. Overall, it was a good value for money given the location, but some aspects could definitely improve.

The hotel boasts a great location near E-Walk Balikpapan Super Block with spacious rooms that are well-equipped. The staff provided a warm and welcoming service. While the facilities were decent, I found the overall service to be a little more business-oriented rather than personal. It’s a good value for money for the amenities offered, but not ideal if you're looking for a deeply personalized experience.
