    Many mosquitoes as the netting had a hole so did get bitten a lot but not a problem if you wear bug spray to sleep!

    Really good breakfast! Able to organise trips and transport as needed and Soni was super helpful and sweet. Good location to bars and restaurants.

    The bathroom could do with an update and a clean. Other than that the rest of the room was in good condition and clean.

    Great location. Lovely staff, very kind and made the stay really nice and comfortable.

    There was some building works next door, so the noise was pretty heavy all day long... Which had nothing to do with the property itself.

    Host was lovely, accommodation was private, breakfast was delicious

    Bed was slightly damp, but to be fair, Ubud is in the jungle! We found that keeping the room door open for an hour or so seemed to help dry them out.

    Great location for eating out, market and sacred monkey forest. Staff were very happy and helpful. Loved the fact that they’re all learning to play the guitar! We also stayed on for one more night.

    Bathroom wasn’t fully separated from the bedroom, gives a little camping vibes, but not a big issue!

    Very good location and nice host! The banana pancake breakfast is delicious and you can rent a scooter directly there! Bus stop (Perama tours) right next door, practical for further travelling :) It was nice to have a terrace, esp. for drying clothes and sitting outside.

    Too many mosquitoes! Really in one night I killed over 20 easy it never stopped, and there is nothing to protect yourself 🥵 Shower and toilet rudimentary but clean😂.

    Value for money, It was clean, bed quite comfortable and owner responsive and very nice 😄 Quite quiet in a small street close to everything ✅.

    Communication was a little confusing about check in and check out. We had to pay and we couldn't find anyone to do so. There is no reception.

    Everything was great! Staff is amazing, location is very nice, they offer motorbike rentals and tours around Bali.

    The bed was not very comfortable and the bunk beds needed a proper clean down. Also the bed cover could be a thinner sheet.

    The owner was very friendly, kind and smiley all the time. Each room had their own chilling zone in the front of the room which was very nice. The location was perfect too, close to everything. And the breakfast pancakes were great!

    The blanket on my bed smelled weird, like it was already used by someone else :( Also, the plug of the upper bed is too high.

    The location is perfect! Wayan is an amazing and caring host :) Breakfast is delicious!! Rooms are very comfy, and I loved that the terrace has a hammock to chill.
