The best!! I think the value for money is quite good. The name of the hotel appears as "BAL! Lodge".( I used a flight and accommodation package.) This accommodation is a little far from the cental(15-20 minutes for walking), but the view from the terrace and common area is nice! If you book a tour, they will pick you up at the hotel. Also,there is a paid shuttle bus from the airport.The distance is a little matter when you return after dinner due to darkness. The hotel was clean and I like their interior decoration. Wi-Fi reached the room and the speed was fine. The staff are very kind. Because it is not high season, the staff are not always on site, but we were able to communicate smoothly via Whatapp. You can get a map with recommended restaurants at the hotel reception. The Italian restaurant "Nápoles", which is the closest to the hotel, is highly recommended. It is very delicious. The pizza was so big that even a half-size pizza was too big for one person to eat, so I took it home. The hotel has a microwave and kitchen in the common area. Also, it was very appreciated that there was a kettle in the room, and there was a tea bag for hot drinks (herbal tea and coffee). For breakfast, you can choose as much fruit and bread (jam and cream cheese) as you like, and they will make you scrambled eggs. You can also drink herbal tea, coffee, water, orange juice or cocoa The room also has a bathtub large enough to stretch your legs out. It is wonderful to take a bath.

Lovely view from the windows, but quite a long walk to the town centre. We were able to cook on site but would not have wanted to stay longer then one night. But very good for the price.
