In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Exceptional staff and hospitality — Guests repeatedly praise the warmth and helpfulness of the Balinese family who run the property. The owners speak English and Spanish, and one host is a licensed travel guide.
  • Central yet quiet location — The guesthouse is on a quiet side street off Monkey Forest Street, within walking distance of the Ubud market, shops, and restaurants, and close to the Monkey Forest itself.
  • Well-regarded breakfast — Breakfast is a highlight for many guests, with fresh fruit, omelettes, and good coffee served in-room or in the garden.
  • Good value for money — With rooms from £10 per night and a strong Value rating, the property is seen as reasonably priced for its location and service.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • Simple rooms, some without air conditioning — The listed room is a Budget Triple Room with a balcony and private bathroom, but there's no guarantee of AC in every room. One review notes that both AC and a ceiling fan worked, but this may not apply to all units.
  • Strict check-in window — Check-in is only between 12:00 and 13:00, a narrow one-hour window that may be inconvenient if your flight or transport arrives later.
  • No pets allowed — The property does not accommodate pets, so if you're travelling with an animal, this isn't the right place.
  • Paid shuttle service — There's no free airport transfer; the shuttle service comes at an extra cost, and the airport is 40 km away.
