Have stayed there a few times. If you are interested in being in the heart of things in Kuta you couldn't do better. Closer than AKK.
Not a kids style hotel. Not a lot of Aussies/Europeans, marketed more towards the Asian market as an Accor Hotel. Modern clean, exceptionally friendly staff, great breakfasts. We always took a Deluxe seaview....to sit on the balcony overhanging Kuta beach and watch activities from morning to night, watching the sunset, is fantastic. I don't think there are many Hotels in Bali who can offer you that.
Pool is small and rooftop but very nice, surrounded by gorgeous bales with big chairs either around the pool or once again overlooking the beach.
If going on flights/book own accom, definitely join Accor Advantage Plus. If on a package I wouldn't bother, only advantage to meals and you will be out and about too much.
