Booked in OK, changed rooms without much hasstle. A few complaints, we are an older couple, we should have known not to come here at schoolies time, seems they cater for them, although there did not seem a lot here, the music they play at pool are I can only describe as loud noise. The hotel has TV in rooms, but mostly Indonesian language, seems only one movie channel, some news, would expect a hotel of this standard to have a lot more English channels. Very little clothes storage, 2 bedside drawers broken, and unusable. They really need to train staff at the safety box area, on one Occassion I just presented my key, that gave me access, no check on signature, next day I had to get front desk manager to address this issue. There supposed to be bottled water every day, I had to ask for this service. Will see if I get tomorrow. On a positive note staff are good and friendly, breakfast is good, as are the choices, pool service good. I could not click on ratings, but they are average, to below average.

The Jayakarta is located right on the beach close to plenty of good restaurants, whilst slightly dated the amenities are very good and renovations are underway. This hotel is in an excellent location, the staff were attentive and very helpful, my stay there was great.

Just returned from spending a week at the Jayakarta and it was great. We had a pool view room which meant very easy access to the pool - but some additional noise during the day and early evening.

Room was tidy and comfortable, and a decent size. There was some confusion during check-in though and the queen bed I booked was instead two singles. I could have spoken to the desk and been moved but the location was decent so left it. Bathroom clean and decent sized and aircon (necessary in the heat!) worked perfectly.

Breakfast (which we had included) was amazing! reviews here are patchy but I dont know why. The food was great with a decent selection.

Wifi patchy and front desk/reception was a little confused sometimes but this was probably just the language barrier. That being said, they were always cheerful and happy.

Location was within walking distance of a number of decent restaurants and backed onto the beach.

Worth noting, there are renovations at the moment which are needed but have resulted in one of the pools being closed and the spa essentially useless (unless you enjoy the sound of banging and drilling throughout treatment). That being said, the two remaining pools are a good size and well maintained.

Definitely would stay there again with a pool view room but would probably wait for the renovations to be completed (feb 2018 I think). Also would have appreciated the Hotel advising us of this, prior to our stay.
