Kuta is the area mostly for young partiers: age 16 to may be 28. Quite a number of clubs of not really high caliber. There is nothing fancy in the neighborhood, not exactly well maintained area, but... The hotel itself was a pleasant surprise. New looking, new smelling, well supported/maintained. Rooms are small, I mean very small as well as shower/sink area. However I found the appliances, the functionality, the bed and bedding to be top notch. This place is perfect for solo traveler or a couple who do not spend much time in the room, or better say - come there to sleep and take a shower. If you are accustomed to a resort style - this is not for you. I found 2 breakfast places within 3 minutes walk. One of the is affiliated with the hotel. I liked their food, prices and service. But again - nothing fancy... simple, clean, functional. And I was quite pleased with the price. If I travel there alone again, or have a companion of similar spirit - The Kuta Pavilion will be a very strong candidate
