Stoled!!! - My name is Eduardo and I ask you to get out of Batu Besar hotel.
In May 2017 we were me and my wife staying at Batu Besar and I woke up at 2am in the morning with a thief inside my room. He ran with my backpack carrying all the travel money and the camera.
Warning: we are 99% sure that it was an obscure plan of someone from the hotel itself, because only those who saw our routine could notice that we always had the backpack everywhere. In other words, we made a mistake in our care and zeal, and they knew that there was something of value in the backpack, because they invaded my room with the door locked to search exclusively for the backpack.

Mi nombre es Eduardo y pido que huyan de Batu Besar hotel.
En mayo de 2017 estábamos yo y mi esposa alojados en el Batu Besar y me desperté a las 2 de la mañana con un ladrón dentro de mi cuarto. Él corrió llevando mi mochila con todo el dinero del viaje y la cámara.
Alerta: tenemos el 99% de certeza que fue un plano oscuro de alguien del propio hotel, pues sólo quien veía nuestra rutina podría notar que siempre estábamos con la mochila en todas partes. Es decir, erramos por el exceso de cuidado y celo, y así sabían que había algo de valor en la mochila, pues invadieron mi habitación con la puerta cerrada para buscar exclusivamente la mochila.

ordinary - Windy, isolated place with average waves. The turtles are cool though.

hoax - Spent time at Turles in June 2010 and was not impressed. Windy, isolated and fickle wave. Go to G-Land. Much better deal. PS. watch your belongings. You could get ripped off.
