We stayed here in March 09. We thought that the place was great. Not really a hotel as such but a colletion on separate cottages, in some very nice gardens. The main entrance is in Jl Bisma, but you are able to walk through the gardens to an entrance in Monkey forest road. You cross over a bridge and then go up a narrow lane way. It brings you out next to the school, just across from the soccer ground. There are a lot of steps at this hotel if you have a room down near the river, and they are steep and slippery if wet. It rained a bit while we were there. We stayed in a Triple aircon room, which was on the ground floor there was another room above. There were three adults in our room (husband, daughter and self) and we were not too crowded. We were next to the rice field and not too far from the pool. The room was very clean and we had a TV and DVD. There was not tea or coffee making equipment, but you got a thermos of tea on your verhanda each morning. The pool is big enough with plenty of loungers around. They are able to organise transport for you if needed and the shops and resturants are not to far away. I would stay there again, if in the area. It was very quiet and you felt like you were in the country.
