I was quite allergic to cats, but then I was offered another room to stay.

Friendly and welcoming atmosphere, outside activities, tour guide, scooter rental and breakfast facilities are available here. Thank you so much!

Part of the bathroom ceiling was open to the attic above, and bits of debris had drifted onto the sink. Easy to clean and did not recur. This is the only reason for the lower cleanliness rating above.

Super-friendly, extra-helpful and informative hosts. The volcano view from my window (which other rooms don't have, but guests can enjoy it from the dining patio). Tasty breakfast. Quiet street with wide territorial view. A delightful international social scene--like the best hostels but with inexpensive private rooms. Coffee and tea available all hours. A tour of trad. villages and hot spring (a river hot along one bank and cold along the other!) with Kristian.

Very friendly staff in a nice homestay, in the center of Bajawa with views on the mount Inerie.

Breakfast not included, costs extra 30k for 2 persons (omlet and some fruit).

Nice, good made room, a bit small, clean, nice owners.

Very friendly family with lots of good English spoken. At the end of a private alleyway so felt very secure and quiet off the main road. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious and they fried the tofu I gave them deliciously. I unfortunately slipped while hiking 45 minutes out of Bajawa, so I got on booking and rebooked the same room because I felt they would be able to help guide me to the right hospital, and they were very helpful and kind to me throughout the rest of my stay.

Great view and lovely staff and great location

My particular room was far from the bathroom and required walking through a common area where there were often family members - the reality of staying in a homestay but it was a little uncomfortable when showering and returning to ones room to change.

The location was great and the outside chilling areas are also very nice. Bed was comfy and wifi was good too. Sandra, the young woman who works here was wonderful and the highlight of staying here. She was great to chat to and always willing to help. Thank you Sandra for making my stay amazing :) Maria and Kristian were also very helpful when organising scooter rental and a public bus to Ruteng.

Bed was not really confortable and breakfast could be better.

Staff was very helpful. We did the Irenie hiking with them which was great. We could also rent a scooter to explore the surroundings. Location of the place is good, very close to city centre.

No hot water. Probably because we got a room on the upper floor.

Close to the central part of the town. Good breakfast.

The people who work here are amazing! Excellent English, and suuuuuuper helpful with everything! Kristian organized all my transport for me. They also took us to a local first communion ceremony, which was really interesting. The vibe here is great, and I easily met lots of other lovely people to hang out with. Also very clean! Highly recommend!

Only slight let down was the shared taxi back to Labuan Bajo which we arranged via the homestay. After it arrived over an hour late we were charged more than we had initially agreed with the homestay as we had bags (who knew there was a baggage charge for Indonesian taxis!) Staff didn’t really help and we sat there for another 30mins before we had to pay up as there was no other way to Labuan Bajo (which they knew hence ripping us off)

Great Homestay. Friendly helpful staff. Tasty breakfast. Very short walk into town.

Nice and friendly host family. I appreciated many activities organized by a host family - visit of ancient villages, local market and family celebrations. The host family alao helped me with shared transport to Ende and Ruteng.

Lovely and extremely helpful hosts. They helped us a lot with planning and organizing our tours around Bajawa. Yummy breakfast!

The shared bathroom was a bit small

We had the most wonderful time here. Kristian and Maria are the most friendly and warm people we have met in a long time. So helpful and always smiling. Would definitely recommend this place!

The rooms smelled a bit like mouse pee but they were still clean and comfortable.

The staff were lovely! They organized a guide for hiking the volcano, a moto rental, and even took me to a secret local hot spring which was amazing! They also organized my onward travel for no extra fees. Kristian and his family are excellent hosts!The shower is nice and hot as well.

Thank you very much Kristian! We highly recommend this homestay if you plan to visit Bajawa. Volcano view and great breakfasts! Kristian will take care of you, help you in organizing and discovering the sights around Bajawa and he will also help with the transfer after your time in Bajawa.

Temperatures at night dropped to 17 degrees - the blanket was quite thin so I had to sleep with my jacket and trousers. A thicker blanket would be great!

The homestay is nice, staff was helpful. I liked mostly that there was free drinking water. There are also organized day trips you can join. Even though we didn't see Kristian he was available through WhatsApp and helped us organize some transport to the bus station. Nice breakfast options to choose from. Good restaurants are within five minute walking distance. Scooter can be rented for a good price!

Stayed in July 2023

We had some compagnie off ants in the room but nothing to worry about. Shower is only cold water so keep that in mind if you like warm showers. For us it wasn’t that big issue.

Kristian is very helpfull if you need anything. The homestay looks a little off when arriving but in the end it is pleasant. Nice restaurants in the neighbourhood such as Lucas.

Stayed in July 2023

We really loved our stay! Basic accomodation with nice restaurants around the corner. Renting a scooter for fair price and super uncomplicated. We would definitely come back!
