Monica, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Balai is stunning and clean, I stayed here as a way to unwind after a 2 week trip and it was absolutely the right decision. Balai gives a chance to unwind alone and everything is preplanned once you ask, for instance, the sauna and spa is booked an hour at a time so no one needs to share. The amenities offered in the rooms are excellent. The facilities are clean and nothing suggested is too much. The food options were good too. Highly recommend for a retreat type feel.

6/10 Good

The place is good, cozy and they have good food in the restaurant. Staff is professional, they are helpful. What we don’t like; the shower is so weak, no hot water and we even have to ask the front desk for toilet paper, there’s no shampoo and bath soap either.
Jean Jack, 2-night trip

The cleanliness of the hotel and the friendliness of the staff. They were very helpful and accommodating. we'll surely recommend this hotel to our friends and family. Keep it up!
Becky, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

No hot water for the whole stay. Staff arent very helpful with regards to “tourists” asking/inquiring about the city or town and where to avail such services pr fees i.e Environmental service. No TV in the room. Will not go back and not recommend this place
Karen, 2-night trip

It's an ok property to stay at for the night. The place was clean and staff are friendly and attentive. Internet connection wasn't very good. And we kept hearing noises during our stay.
Aileen, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Quiet, spa-like atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff. No tv or fridge in room. Nice bathroom. Five minutes from airport, 10-15 minutes from major shopping malls and markets. One and a half hour from underground river tour and swimmable beaches. Hotel should expand website to include helpful information for tourists.

There was a lot of potential for the place but unfortunately it was very dirty and dusty. They place wasn’t what I expected when I saw this on Expedia. I was disappointed in the facility.
