We stayed at the Bakungsari in March 2005. Yuk Yuk Yuk, just an awful hotel, you would be much better spending $200 more & staying at a better hotel, Ramayama is in same area. I am not overly fussy but I draw the line at grey sheets that don't fit the bed, just dawned on me whilst there that poor quality hotels could have bed bugs, more terror,questionable pillows, towels taken in the morning & not returned until 5pm (after laundering). Breakfast is a disaster, horrible food & simply rude waiter. We ate elsewhere. The complex surrounds the pool area, that isn't too bad except if your room overlooks the pool bar area, lots of yobbos trying to out drink each other then arguing over which state is best then football teams. Then because it is a budget hotel lots of young japanese, taiwanese, koreans etc stay there in groups. Chattering loudly at 1 or 2am, in & out of the room doors, slamming each time. Apparently the other hotel is owned by same people, anyway that is my opinion of the place, never stay at budget hotels again, just spoils a wonderful holiday. Looking forward to August to stay at Alam Kul Kul, heaven on earth.
