Christian is an extremely welcoming host and well-informed guide who can take you to the viewpoints, traditional villages and hot springs around Bajawa. The smile on his face is very contagious. He seems to know every single local around the village. Christian also arranged the Inierie hike for us, and Dino, his brother in law, served as a perfect guide. Rooms are basic but clean and showers come with hot water. They serve a decent multi optional breakfast. Reasonable prices. The accomodation has great views of Gunung Inierie.

Simple guesthouse but comfortable bed and clean bathroom and common areas. Kristian is very nice and will help you organize transportation to your next destination, scooter rental and tours. Breakfast was very good and they gave you many options to chose from.

One of the rooms had low water pressure but Kristian offered to use his shower.

We stayed 4 nights with Kristian and loved it. It's an affordable, basic and clean space but what makes it outstanding is Kristian and his family. He helped us with planning our trips, helped me negotiate some ikat textiles in one of the neighboring traditional villages and had contacts for us along our Flores route. Would highly recommend staying here and chatting with Kristian. Also, his sister's pancakes are out of this world.

The owner Kristian was super helpful in providing info & arranging transportation. The room was comfortable, good hot water pressure, and the breakfast was nice. Free flow water, tea, coffee -fabulous!

booked a room with private bathroom but there was no water running and toilet flush was clearly broken and unused for a while, they insisted I showered in another building but after insisting they refilled the tank in the evening so I could get my own hot shower, I asked for bucket so I could at least flush the toilet. bathroom was smelly. limited English skills with staff. expensive and careless laundry service (30k), they don't use clips and it can get windy so some wet clothes were lying around on the floor including mine... oh and there was a wedding playing music until 3am the first night (bad luck) and on second night I thought I could get a good nice of sleep but there is a karaoke place nearby... I won't even mention the dozens of dogs barking in the street at night :)

breakfast was decent with good views of the town and the mt inerie, otherwise not much else to say... would definitely stay somewhere else next time.

Loved our stay at Kristian Homestay !! We had a great stay, and absolutely loved our climb of mount Inerie with Melki as the great guide ! Thanks so much to Melki and Kristian for a wonderful tour of the villages and for sharing your well of information! I would definitely recommend and come to stay with you again !

- walls of my room were paper-thin, so you could hear the surroundings of the area to socialize - room smelled bad after a time, because the toilet in the bathroom has no flush - host and his friends seem to be not really reliable: on the day I wanted to depart, I wanted to take the Gunung Mas bus. The day before I asked the host and his friends several times to call the bus company to book a ticket. At the evening the day before departure they said they could not reach the company because the office was already closed. The next morning, at the departure day, they said, everything is arranged. But when the bus arrived at departure day, there were no free seats available. So I needed to find another option getting to Moni. When I confronted the owner and his friends, they said, they called in the evening the day before to arrange the booking. So this version is contradictory to the one which they told in the morning. At least, they said sorry. But to be honest, I find it hard to believe the guys.

- good breaky - free coffee, tea, refill water

The rooms need a fresh coat of paint. Right now they are shabby and dirty looking, the windowsills and the courtains weren't clean looking. Our bathroom needed cleaning but was cleaned after we asked. The water pressure is low so just a trickle comes out of the sink faucet.

The staff is very nice, the breakfast is excellent and the position is good.

Stayed in September 2022

Bathrooms could be improved, also there was a bit of a drainage smell (as most places in Indonesia).

The best thing about this homestay are the owners, Kristian and Maria, such wonderful people. Kristian took us on a last-minute planned guided tour of the traditional villages and hot springs, a priceless experience that I highly recommend. This is a budget stay, so rooms are very simple but in line with the great price.

Bathroom was not very pleasant, manual toilet. Not the best facilities in general. Too expensive for what you get.

Hot shower, WiFi

If you are expecting 5 star no, but great as a home stay. Changing money in Bajawa can be an issue

Very friendly, I felt at home from the moment I arrived, great place to organise a local guide. Great location, walking distance to food and the centre of town

Stayed in July 2022

I really enjoyed my stay in this homestay, which is quiet and clean. In this place you have an amazing view to the Inerie Volcano. The owners help you to reach all the nice places arround Bajawa.

Stayed in June 2022

Homely atmosphere and the owners were very welcoming. Simple but it meant that I spent time with his family and Kristian was happy to take me to all the main sights
