Because of the friendly rates of this hotel, you may be overwhelmed with the number of guests checking in at that designated hour so a little patience might be needed.

Rooms at Pop! Hotel

This budget hotel in Kuta Beach, Bali offers modern accommodations. They have comfortable double or twin beds ensuite with a unique private bathroom.

A sofa bed is also put in place but guests might find the sofa hard to sleep on.

Each room is also fitted with a flat-screen satellite TV and an electronic safe is available. Toiletries, towels and bottler water are provided too for guests’ convenience. And if your bottled water is not enough, there’s a drinking station available at the lobby offering round the clock supply of hot or cold water.
