Really wanted to give 10 but....

This hotel has a strategic location, my sister stayed here back in 2017 and was quite impressed by this property? however, this time we can see that the hotel has been under maintained, you can see the furniture in the room are worn out and lack of cleanliness e.g dust all over the lamp case and coffee table, yellow stained toilet seat, stained on the linen and the curtain. This hotel has lots of potential however needs lots of improvement on the Housekeeping side. I worked in the hotel myself, in my opinion the listed price isn't match the condition of the room. The few things that saved this hotel from my 1 star review are the breakfast (lots of variety and good taste), the pillow (firm and comfy) and the attentive staff. You also need to pay attention on the sofa, due to the material of the sofa and probably lack of air circulation it might invested with either bugs or mites, I got itch when I sit on the sofa and when I reported to the Front Office they stated they will do treatment however when the staff came I realized that the treatment is to cover the sofa with new linen not some kind of spray or hot steam. Kindly improve your maintenance and housekeeping procedure.

Highly recommended!

The hotel is actually blocks of apartments so the rooms are really spacious, feels more like studios really. Situated just by the sea coast, I was able to enjoy the sea breeze while doing my work on my laptop in the afternoon into the evening. Breakfast was slightly lacklustre but made up for by the location and scenery.

Dirty bathroom,

Checked in, usual info about breakfast etc not given, had to ask for assistance with bag. Room needs attention, bathroom filthy, pee stains all over toilet, bathroom stuck of urine, had to get them to come and disinfect bathroom. ( Still stunk ) curtains are wrong size for Window. No water in room but a empty jug so you have to go get it yourself. Didn't fancy menu so ordered a delivery, security would not let him near hotel. On check out, 2 members of staff just watched me struggle down the stairs with three bags, no help what so ever. Room was on 16th floor but still very noisy from traffic. Would not stay there again

Transit di Aston Balikpapan

Front desk service sangat ramah, layanan cepat dan mendapatkan petunjuk yang sangat jelas, jalan menuju kamar terkesan tidak menarik, lift perlu di renovasi, se tiba di kamar terkesan bau lembab dan bahkan kasur dan bantal masih tercium bau keringat. Amenity cukup lengkap, kamar mandi dan shower nyaman, televisi dan pendingin ruangan menjadikan kesan kurang menarik pada suasana kamar meski kamar sangat cocok untuk kunjungan liburan keluarga

Je krijgt hier veel vierkante meters voor je geld. Een aparte zitruimte en eetruimte, zodat je geen kruimels oo bed krijgt als je in het hotel wilt eten. Ze hebben een prachtig zwembad, dat op zee uitkijkt, en waar je degelijk baandjes kan trekken. In de ochtend kan het er wel erg druk zijn. Het hotel heeft enorm veek kamers en wordt goed bezocht, waardoor het bij de receptie en bij de lift wel eens lang wachten kan zijn. Onderhoud loopt hier en daar wat achter, maar het blijft een favoriet.

Almost great.!!

Clean, Nice location, has a nice safe and bathroom. Has an elevator and LCD TV. Comfortable bed, great swimming pool. Excellent complimentary breakfast. The toilet kept running all night they needed to fix it. The AC worked great. The safe was large enough for my laptop. They do attract many children / families and those children fill the pool many hours and run around in the hallways, it is a little hard to get a good night sleep with all the noise.

Hotel with a nice view but that's about it!!!

I think my title should sum it up. This hotel was saved by the view orherwise room was dirty like small ants everywhere from kitchen to bathroom. Stain on the bedsheet, ashes on the couch.
