Mataram Budget Hotels from RM15

"Great villas, sad surrounding"

"Unless you pay for the expensive package, you need to be very mobile. All bathrooms in the reasonable rate category come with bathtubs only. There are no grab bars or anything for support. The walls have signs of humidity decay. The pool meant for everyone's use is very small considering. We paid to upgrade because of this. The website says the beach is close. Its not. Its a 35 minute walk. We paid for an all inclusive package. The kitchen had major issues. They tried hard but left things lacking. Also, be ready for a wakeup at 4 am or so bc this hotel seems to be right next to a speaker for the call to prayers. The spa is very nice. The beds are outrageously hard. We used the cushions from the patio furniture to help as the hotel had no way to fix this issue. "

"The Pros - staff was very friendly, helpful, always willing to go the extra mile to help. From our arrival to check out the staff were absolutely amazing espically one of the waiter ( Jian ). The pool and surrounding was well kept and clean. , it was very private and relaxing. The bedrooms were a bit dated but it serve the purpose . The Cons - Beach!!! Very disappointed."

"I had a great stay at Vila Ombak Hotel. The resort is beautiful, very clean, and spacious, with a relaxing atmosphere throughout. The rooms are large and comfortable, offering an amazing view that really adds to the experience. Its location is perfect—close to all the dining options and easy to get around, yet still peaceful. Overall, a fantastic place to stay and I’d happily come back."
