Thanks Dynasty!

Hotel was comfortable to stay in, the service and staff are stellar, everyone was friendly and inviting. You felt good going back to the bars or restaurants around the Dynasty complex. Food was great. And to top it all off the hotels proximity to most a lot of the things that bring people to Kuta is pretty neat. We had a fantastic week and will certainly be returning in the future.
