Speaking about hotel1
I remember that when I went to Bali, the hotel we booked was cozy, bright, clean, and well-equipped. It was fully furnished. The terrace had an amazing view of the river and the pool. It was located in a safe area. The location was great, although it was far from the shopping center. Overall, the hotel was just as nice as it seemed in the advertisement.
