You get what you pay for, descent for backpackers like myself the sheets on the bed could be cleaner

There were stains on the bed toilet and was horrible

The owners were willing to let me pay for nice room when one i bought was dank.

The owner of the lodge is very accommodating. The standard room is very cheap and it has complete amenities. There are some part of the room that has dust but this is just a minor issue for a $5 room.

Don’t expect too much for the lower price but for one night is just okay :) staff is super friendly

I moved from standard to a bigger room, and it was good. The staff is friendly.

Great place to stay

Great place to stay, I upgraded and have good AC, Hot Water, big bed it's nice and central and huge room. The place is back off the road and is nice and quite on the 2nd floor.

noisy, annoying

I could not sleep at night, very noisy, there were worms in the bathroom, no air conditioning, only a terrible noisy fan.

Do NOT stay here

Do not stay here. We booked this hotel after seeing the pictures, and it looked reasonable enough. We arrived to a terrible, hot and tiny room with no toilet roll, no sink to wash hands, no bed sheets, broken shower, no toiletries, no city and totally different from advertised. When speaking with them, they were unwilling to let us move to a room with the amenities described without charging us 100,000 more.

very basic

The Standard rooms are very poor condition. No wash basin in the bathroom. Water from shower does not drain away as floor slopes the wrong way. No toilet paper. No shower head, just a hose. No sheet or blanket to cover you. When we asked we were given sari's to use as a sheet. Because our flight was arriving late I made a special request and asked for an airport transfer. It was ignored. When I rang to ask they hung up on me. The Superior rooms or whatever they are called are newer and bigger so maybe they are OK. I would not stay there again.

Nice place and very good service :)

I needed a place to stay for one night. Got to the airport really late. Even though it didn't had 24/7 service, they let me in my room in the middle of the night (I had to woke up the boss for that). Room was small, bed was semi-comfortable, it can always be better. But the price I paid was not much at all. One thing, that really annoyed me, was that there was no blanket. It would have been ok, but it was too hot to sleep without the air-conditioner, but the conditioner blew on me all the time. So just even a plain bed sheet would have been nice. Not a luxurious place, but actually livable for couple of nights. :)

You get what you paid for

Great location(beach, Lippo Mall, transportation etc,), friendly staff, low cost. I was upgraded to a Deluxe room which was reasonable give that i only paid about US$11 per night for a standard room.

The hotel is quiet, clean and shady.

I enjoyed staying here. It is quiet, clean, and friendly.

Basic room but good location

We stayed for 2 nights and enjoyed our stay. The room is very basic with a double bed, fan and small table. The bathroom only had a toilet and shower (which didn't have a hook so you had to hold it in your hand) there was no sink or mirror in the bathroom. The location of this homestay is really good! Its just a short walk from all the bars, restaurants, markets and the beach and there's not much noise as you're not on the main street. Woukd reccomend this to travellers!

Terrible experience..

I was looking to stay in a budget homestay close to Kuta and Legian. I was not looking for luxury, just somewhere clean, cheap and convenient. When I arrived at the homestay I was met by the owner. At first sight the room looked ok until I opened the bathroom door to met by an overwhelming smell of urine coming up the drain. I was unable to shower in my bathroom at all. The general cleanliness of the rest of the room was also very ordinary and apparently it was unreasonable to ask for a clean towel after 5 days. The owners of the homestay kept a large dog confined to a cage and as an animal lover I found it very distressing hearing him bark day and night, not even being let out of the cage to clean it but hosing the cage out with the dog still inside. They refused to listen to our offers to help with rehoming the dog to a more suitable environment, telling us that he was "security". The last straw was when I watched a woman and man arrive without luggage, hand over some cash and then enter a room, leaving an hour later.
