Best value hotel in Kuta, Bali

I would like to write about the hotel, Yulia Beach Inn (www.yuliainns.com/ybi) where I am staying in Kuta, Bali and recommend to people who are planning on visiting Bali or who want to come in future. Frankly, I didn't know anything about this hotel before I left Sydney. I chose this hotel based on customers reviews and reasonable price on hotel booking websites. Until we checked in, I was not sure about my choice. Only I could do is hoping for not too bad. However, the hotel exceeded our expectations and we decided to cancel a booking on other hotel which is 30% more expensive and far well known in order to stay longer at Yulia. Main reason I want to share my experience in staying at Yulia is that I want to be a little help to someone who wants to find a decent hotel in Bali. It is never easy to find out a good accommodation in overseas to me so I hope my experience and recommendation can help future travellers to Bali.

Yulia Beach Inn is not a 4 or 5 star hotel. It is a 3 star ranked hotel and simple and decent accommodation so if you want to enjoy a luxurious holiday in Bali, you don't need to read further as you would feel the hotel is not good enough to you. However if you want to have a hotel with reasonable price and good location to enjoy more of your time on your limited budget, this hotel will be a perfect choice.

Here are some reasons why we like to stay at Yulia Beach Inn in Kuta.

1. Great location : Less than 500 meters from Kuta beach and 3 minutes walking distance from the shopping centre with a big supermarket called 'Matahari'. It is very handy to buy stuff what you need, especially for ladies. Being close to local shops, restaurants and traditional markets will offer you more things to do and enjoy your time there. The hotel is on a simply great location! 

2. Great value : You pay less for more. Price is very reasonable and you can get higher standard services at Yulia. I could pay less about $18 per night which can be all day meal costs for two people and got bigger and newer room. 

3. Cleanness : I can stand a small and old room but I can't stand a dirty room. Yulia satisfied me perfectly. The cleanness exceeds 4 or 5 star hotels' standard. Every day, they provide clean and comfortable conditions for us to enjoy spending time in the room. 

4. Friendly and attentive staff: We have been received the best care from the staff at Yulia. They are always ready to help with great smile and friendly approaches. They have been providing diligently whatever we asked for. I would like to thank to them, especially two ladies at the reception, Sema and Rahayu. 

5. Quiet surrounding: Even though, the hotel entrance is facing to the busy street, rooms are located away from the street so rooms are very quiet. Garden and swimming pool are small but both are very nicely maintained. 

Poor Internet connection and variety of breakfast can be improved but they don't spoil my time at Yulia as I believe that Yulia is one of the best value hotels in Kuta. When we cancelled the other hotel and came back to Yulia, we got offered an upgraded room without extra charges so now we are even happier than before. I hope I could help you out with finding  a decent and great value hotel in Kuta, Bali.
