One of the closest hotel from the airport. The Aircon is quite old style, Balikpapan has a hot weather, it takes time to cool down in the room. they dont have the hair blower but we can request to them and they deliver to my room. My room has a view to the street, the food is nice, I tried the mantau, one of the special dishes from East Kalimantan

A good hotel and close to the airport, unfortunately parking is limited and if it's full you have to park on the side of the road, fortunately the staff can help you

Best experience while staying here. The kids love it. The breakfast menu is really kids friendly, the pool and playground are also fun. Really a family hotel. The room is also spacious and clean. It's a shame there's no balcony in the room, but the window is big enough for the kids to enjoy watching planes take off and land.

When I arrived at the hotel, the reception said the rooms were full, the remaining price was 1.7 million/night. I immediately checked at Traveloka in front of the reception, it turned out there were still 4 kmr empty at 1.1 million/night. Then he said online it was still there, bro, the receptionist's answer was really "curt". "Yes sir, just order via the application" it doesn't seem sincere if you order via the application. After ordering they made us wait 20 minutes, with the excuse in their system that it hadn't arrived yet. I was angry and asked Traveloka to cancel on the grounds that the hotel had not yet connected my order. Then when I wanted to check out I asked for a car to take you to the airport, the reception didn't arrive until 10, then there wasn't any more. We checked out at 11 o'clock. After ordering a taxi online, the hotel's airport pick-up and drop-off car turned out to be parked in front of the hotel, the security guard said why not just use the hotel car, sir, I was disappointed to stay here
