    The bathroom is a little tired but for the price is was clean and everything I needed.

    It was clean, safe, in the middle of Ubud, comfortable bed, as advertised on Booking.com, exceptional staff - thanks Yulia for all your help with transport, quad biking etc. 💕 As a solo traveller - I felt very safe.

    Enriching stay to support a unique mission

    No night security and narrow winding walkways. In the day during checkin, lots of men at the eating places but no danger of lingering. Entrance at night is dark for solo females, but there is a massage shop nearby whose female staff could see me walk.

    The cultural classes are a must. Central location around amazing restaurants and craft market. Basic, clean facilities with warm, attentive service. Amazing value and happy to support its community mission as a library. The noise from the bar wasn’t as loud as expected and the singers had great voices. Friendly elders and dogs in the morning were lovely endings.

    There wasn’t any electrical sockets around the room only one on each side next to bed and these had lamps plugged in and were behind bedside tables.

    Really enjoyed our stay here the rooms are very clean and modern and the bed was comfy. Staff were great and even arranged a transfer to our next place for us. The location is perfect right in the centre of Ubud.

    Simply personal preference and not being used to open showers next to the toilet - the bathroom is clean enough, but generally a little damp, a bit tired due to age of the place. However the staff (+ Yulia especially) is really lovely and friendly, and cleaned my room everyday as requested. Some other reviews complained of smells etc - but my room was fine :)

    Central location, although a little tricky to locate (look for the blue arches/gates behind the soccer field and carpark). Clean room. Refillable water facilities. By keeping the balcony windows closed, my room was bug-free (safe from mozzies), which is so needed!!

    As others have mentioned, the music from the bar closeby is very loud and goes on for a long time every night. This is not the owner’s fault but is about location of bars so close to residential and renting locations

    Location and space were great. Staff were nice and very helpful. Rooms were clean and had what we needed.

    Could be improved: 1. The bathroom had only with rain-shower, there was no hand-shower, which makes your head wet every time you get a shower, as there is no shower cap provided. There was no shower curtain, and a floor border to keep the other floor dry. The bathroom floor is all wet after use. 2. There was no drinking water in the room, but refillable water gallons were available in the kitchen next to the lobby. The host should provide a bottle of water in the room and refill it if the guests need more. 3. The noise of music from the neighbour's bar, not too loud, but I could hear it from the second-floor room.

    The location is super good. It is located right in the heart of Ubud centre, within walking distance to the shops and restaurants. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable.

    The room looks better in pictures, it was quite dark and not very clean, they need some maintenence and touch ups. For a short stay is ok.

    It's very central, close to the main street. AC was ok, also WiFi was good. Pool was very nice. The guesthouse in on a back alley but ok to reach. Good value for money.

    Too noisy with construction drilling during the that we had to lived the property and swim elsewhere. Loud club music banging until late at night. Not even pleasant music! No breakfast included. No kettle or cups in the room.

    Nice central location and pool to relax in. Good size rooms and comfortable bed.

    Bathroom is clean but doesn’t look the best and the water pressure isn’t good, but that’s fine for me

    This place felt really safe especially for a female solo traveller, it took me awhile to find the guesthouse but that’s fine. It is inside the library if anyone’s has any trouble finding it. The facilities is great, staff is super sweet too! Would come again
