The Janan Villa

This was our last stop on the Bali holiday - I'm glad it was only 2 nights. On my 8th visit to Bali - this would be the place that has the most unwelcoming, unfriendly staff. Reception is mainly unattended. The young lady that is sometimes there was nice & helpful, but the older lady obviously would rather be somewhere else. The breakfast was absolutely inedible. & served by unsmiling, unfriendly staff. Choice of scrambled eggs - that was it. When they came, there was so much water on the plates we had to use tissues to mop it up, and it had made the toast inedible. If we had been staying longer we would have paid to have breakfast down the road somewhere. The room was a family room - & that was ok. Separate room for the 3rd adult. Huge bathroom, nice family/kitchen area. Basic plates, cutlery, glasses. Nice big fridge. Kettle - but no tea/coffee/sugar. The saving grace here is the pool - absolutely awesome setting. Otherwise - they don't serve any food & there is not a lot around them. Would definitely not come back.

Have been staying here a week and it’sa nice place and the staff are pleasant. BUT my room has a power cut 2 days ago as the meter ran out. They topped it up no problem. But today Friday evening, I come home at 20:00 to find no electricity again! I’ve now been waiting in reception for 35 minutes and 50 seconds. The poor receptionist is doing his best, but only the owner, who is not answering her WhatsApp is allowed to top up the electricity - so I’m still waiting… 38 minutes… To put this perspective, I’ve lived in Bali for the last 4 years - it takes 60 seconds with online banking to go top up electricity. Oh, and question, how much did they tip up 2 days ago when it ran it,,, $1???
