    The lock is a little loud.But, it's not a big problem

    The room was comfortable and value for money. It's like a homestay with a shared kitchen and is good for long term stays. Shared toilet is not a problem and are right next to the room.

    There was a big wifi issue during our stay. But thats not the problem of the accomodation, but the service provider. Other than that i was very happy with the accomodation.

    Nice place to stay. A little bit out of everything, but you have all you need and in general no big issues.

    The road is bumpy. This accommodation is located in a calm esidential area, pretty easy to get by if you use motorbike.

    The room was clean We got the pool view room with a shared toilet. The shower in our room was alright. The view at night from the rooftop was beatiful.

    -Shower (looks like it's a common issue in Bali) -Road is completely broken so be careful (not their fault obviously)

    Very quiet location so good for sleeping, bed is comfortable too. Had smart TV in the room and that was a surprise. WiFi connection really good. Kitchen has enough equipment and tools for cooking your own breakfast or dinner. Staff is polite, helpful and professional. Note, you need to rent a motorbike because there's nothing around there but it's not a problem because they will arrange that for you at reasonable price.

    The toilet is in the hall, not in the room, the shower is in the room

    I was exhausted from driving in the terrible traffic & didn’t have anything to eat. As there are no restaurants or convenience stores in reasonable walking distance at night, the owner offered to pick me up something to eat at a small market on his scooter. He didn’t have to do this, but I was very grateful he did.

    We did come across two cockroaches in the bathroom area, but it wasn’t a major concern for us. We understand that this can be one of the occasional drawbacks of staying in a tropical climate, and it didn’t take away from our overall experience.

    We spent two wonderful days at the hotel, and my husband and I absolutely loved every moment. What stood out most to us was the warm, home-like ambiance that made us feel instantly comfortable. The traditional Balinese furniture beautifully reflected the island’s cultural identity, adding a sense of authenticity to our stay. And the rooftop—what a gem! At night, we enjoyed breathtaking views of the GWK statue, illuminated by stunning lights that made the experience truly magical. We also had the pleasure of meeting the owner, who was incredibly friendly and kind. Her Sphynx cats frequently visited us, much to my husband’s delight—he’s a devoted cat lover. He especially enjoyed their company while sipping his morning coffee, making the experience even memorable.

    It was the second time we stayed here and it already felt like home. The staff and owner are so welcoming. Love the cosy feel of the place and the decorations. The walk to the shops is really nice as it’s lined with statues and different plants. The warung just a few meters away has delicious food and at an astonishing price. Love GWK view and would definitely stay again.

    Beautiful on the outside, disappointing on the inside

    On my very first day, I saw six cockroaches in the hallway and tiny bugs in my room: on the bed, closet, and table. I was told the cleaning staff would remove the little bugs in my room, but when I returned, nothing had changed. A few days later, the room started to smell moldy, and after a few weeks, I found mold on all my clothes, in every suitcase and bag, everywhere. When I brought this up, I got informed that the hotel doesn’t provide anything to deal with humidity or mold, and switching rooms would cost me extra. Instead, they gave me a pack of camphor (a bug repellent), against the mold. I didn’t feel taken seriously at this point. The shared kitchen and bathroom were barely cleaned, especially the bathroom was left dirty for weeks, with clogged drains, foul smells, and dirty toilets. Working in my room was also impossible. Daily construction noise on the hotel property outside, thin walls, and constant disruptions made it hard to focus. When I asked for a quieter place, I was told to use the terrace or rooftop, which are too noisy, without AC, poor Wi‑Fi, no power outlets. When I informed staff that terrace and rooftop are not suitable alternatives for me, my message was ignored. Only after I got very serious about the situation, the staff allowed me to use a quiet room for a few hours. I’m usually not someone with high expectations when it comes to hotels, but this was just too much. Too many problems and the hotel did not take responsibility, so I had to deal with those very serious problems on my own. I can’t recommend staying here, especially not long-term.

    The hotel is in a quiet area near Udayana University, with a beautiful outdoor space, and the staff, especially Holly, was super kind and welcoming.

    The location was favorable for some reasons and not for others. It provided easy access to the GWK Cultural Park, and also my favorite warung of my trip (and I ate at dozens), Warung Bu Pon. However, I found that the home wasn't close to many of the favorable beaches to surf and popular nightlife spots. With that said, the location helped us make a quit exit to the airport when it was time to fly out of Indo.

    I can't give this home enough compliments. The main shared space on the first floor was glorious, and contained all kinds of Asian artifacts, making it a bit of a museum. The garden in the lounging area was lovely and created a peaceful setting. On the second floor there was a small gym and a nice outdoor space, which my partner was able to work from daily. The third floor provided amazing 360 degree views of the city, and a clear view of the massive GWK statue. Both the 1st and 2nd floors included a kitchen and dining area. The staff was very helpful and attentive, especially the owner Milla. I had some great conversations with her about travel and Indonesia in specific.

    The room said it came with both a shower and a bath. This was not the case. When I asked about this I was told I could use the bath in the adjoining bath room. This was also not the case. It was always locked and I was then told something different. The shared toilet was dirty and not replenished with toilet paper or cleaned. Our room was only cleaned twice in 7 days. The floors were not cleaned well and under the bed was always dirty.

    At first it seemed good, as time went on it was not so good. The staff were lazy and not friendly. There was one man who worked a lot and many who did little.

    The mosquito net above the bed fell on its own while we were sleeping and it wasn't our fault. They've kept it in such a way that your leg will pull that thing down. Since apparently "we" broke it, they charged us 200,000 IDR even tho it would've been a cheap fix.

    Ambience, cleanliness.

    What an amazing find, I wish we had more time there the hotel is great everything you need including a little gym area roof terrace, small pool and chilled garden, an amazing warung next door for the best chicken we've had. The gwk close by for a walk and experience and a taxi ride to ulawata temple. The staff were great couldn't help enough. I would recommend this place and I'd definitely stay again if I return to Bali
