    We were woken up every morning before 7am, either by the dog barking or people talking very loudly walking passed our room (assuming these were workers starting early). The poor dog was in a metal cage, not much bigger than the dog itself. I'm not sure if it was removed from the cage at night, but on one of the days we noticed that it was in there from atleast 7am (when it started barking) to just after 10pm at night. We didn't leave the room until 1pm and got back at 5pm, so if it was let out if the cage, it wasn't for long. Quite sad to see and obvious why it barks all day. We didn't use the pool as there was a really nice free pool down the road. Slight smell of damp in the bedroom but nothing too offensive. When I messaged the number provided, it was the number of someone who no longer works there.

    There was a young man working there who was very helpful. Anything we needed, he was happy to help. He also brought us hot water for our tea/coffee each morning. The shower was nice and hot. The bed wasn't too uncomfortable. Good location.

    We arrived after 24 hours of travelling, late in the evening, exhausted. We had booked a deluxe room with aircon to be told they had given our room away. Instead they gave us the smallest box room, with a fan right on the road. The room was awful and I think there was only one of the kind. There was no apology or acknowledgment, just a tough luck attitude. They even tried to charge me full price! The breakfast also leaves a lot to be desired. No where to sit around the pool. There are much nicer options of accommodation for less around that area, I would save your money.

    The rooms were lovely as were the pool.

    The rooms in front part have s little smell inside. Not to bad but i would recommend to book the rooms around the pool.

    I stayed 2 weeks and first i booked one room im the front part. But they are not as comfortable as the rooms around the pool. I asked for and Yudi just did hid best to change my room quickly. Additional i got tea and coffee in the morning when i asked for and whatever i needed, i could ask yudi. He manages everything here and does the best that thr guests feel great here. The pool is clean too and beds are clean as well. I stayed two weeks and it was nice. The location is close to the center bud its quiet in the night. Only dogs barking sometimes in the night (like everywhere in ubud) or the temple is loud when there id a festival.

    It's the first hotel in Ubud where I didn't feel very safe :D The doors didn't close properly, there was a lot of space between them. The bathroom was clean, but the water was going super slow in the shower.

    The room was clean and the location was good. Very friendly and helpful host.

    The property is not well-taken care of. the cleanliness is their biggest issue. The sheet and the pillow are awfully smelly, not to mention look tired. The sink drain was blocked. I could not barely sleep and in the morning woke up exhaustedly and stiffly since could not stand the smell of the sheet and the pillow. I checked out early in the morning. The only plus point if this premise was the attitude of the PIC of the place, Wayan. He did his best to accomodate. Also there was a kind middle-aged lady who helped me with the luggage. Unfortunately, the hospitality should be supported by the fundamental improvement from the management.

    The shower did not work well, with barely a drizzle and would not stay upright and part of the shower wall was falling off. It was also quite loud at night with dogs barking continuously, clearly hearing the neighbouring room.

    Very central location and clean room as it appeared in the photos.

    The pool is never really cleaned so you can’t really use it. we originally wanted to stay a month but the owner didn’t want to clean the pool so we changed our mind. Room was never cleaned (maybe twice in 2 weeks). We were also overcharged compared to the price given by booking. wouldn’t stay again for that alone. No shampoo given.

    The location is pretty good and it’s quiet in the mornings which is very rare. The owner is very kind.

    We had to book ourself into a different hotel as all the bedding smelt very badly of damp and was unbearable to lie on. There were also big gaps in the doors which let lots of bugs and mosquitoes into the room. Staff were very understanding and did offer us a refund even though we had passed the refund period.

    Location is good and pool is fairly nice. Room is a good size and the facilities are decent for the price you are paying.

    When you book more expensive room, you don't have breakfast - that is odd.

    Room was a bit damp, bathroom had a hole in the ceiling so we had either spiders or cockroaches visiting us on a regular basis. Swimming pool didn't look clean enough to swim in.

    Some big insects can get into the room through the gaps in the walls, we even found a small frog, but thats to be expected as you are in a very natural place.

    Room was lovely and so close to the city centre, 15 min walk from everything important. The pool was great and the staff were so nice and accommodating.
