    We see there was no flush at the toilet. And the rooms have no fan installed, they have provided us standfan was not enough at all. Temperature of the island was good, but they must provide a better stand fan

    The outside of the rooms were very nice. Its exactly like a temple. And the stuff were very nice and friendly.

    - No air conditioning. Sound isolation is not present - you can hear every sound from the street inside your room. Restroom peculiarities were already mentioned in other reviews and I was ok with it

    The location is great for going both east, west, and south. The staff and Ray were very nice and friendly. There are ATMs, supermarkets, and cafes with local food near the place. Wifi was available and working okay. Included breakfast consisted of tea and a small banana pancake which is not enough for half of a day, but a good start and excellent for the price of the stay

    There is no aircondition, but a fan. Only cold shower and no toilet flush, but you get used to that. Unfortunately we lost 4 shirts when they washed them.

    First of all its cheap and they are very chille about check in/out. Gedde (Ray) is an amazing and friendly Human being, who is so helpfull and just want you to feel at home at his place. And you really do! Its a beautiful place, not much noise from the street, close to the harbor to Sanur, shops and eating places (night market). Free tea and coffee and breakfast where you choose between pancake or omelette (really good both of them). It’s also possible to wash clothes there.

    Well established and well run, this homestay is in a fantastic location immediately across the road from the night market and a short walk to the ferry. Mr Ray has excellent English and is very helpful with motorbike hire and booking tickets and tours. The staff keep everything Clean and tidy. I would definitely return here and recommend it to any friends and family travelling to Nusa Pernida.

    There were many many many cockroaches in our room, we had to leave because the owner wasn't there to help us. Some locals tried to help us to get rid of them for the night, but there were too much. I am not hard to please when it comes to hostel, but cockroaches are disgusting. Terrible experience.

    There were many locals sleeping there, so it was cool talking to them!

    Everything could have been better

    Places boasts to be right on the beach, it isn’t. The room was dirty, mouldy, dark and holes gaps everywhere. Uncomfortable and unhealthy microfibre sheets. No staff appeared to be anywhere at any time. A karaoke party next door began at around 6pm and went until 3am.

    Apart from cockroaches and spiders in my room, no flush and bad smell in the toilet, paint from the wall falling in my bed, those would be a single detail and i would consider value for money. What i dindt like was the fact that i arrived there with pain and fever (kidney in the stone) and couldnt sleep at night and every day at 5 am there where severel roosters screaming so loud behind my windon that i couldnt sleep and recovery. On the first morning i tryed to ask the staff to move room and explainded my condintion using the google translator cos nome speaks english and they got piss off about it and didnt make any case about it!

    Location is excellent and outside decor is beaultiful. Has a hugh potencial to be the best homestay in the island if they listeng what people is asking and complain....

    It’s very very basic, but that’s what you pay the low price for. Toilet has manual flush, taps are a bit smelly, rooms quite dirty.

    Good value stay, breakfast every morning, were able to accommodate for me needing a gluten free breakfast. Ray was super helpful, arranged us a taxi and bike rental.
