    Such a pleasant stay! The owner and the staff were very friendly, they organised a balinese cooking lesson and they also invited me to the fool moon ceremony and they gave be clothes for the temple. The room was very clean and sheets were smelling fresh. The garden is amazing for remote working. Also very good Internet speed.

    This place is just stunning and very relaxed! Buda, the owner, and his staff were very kind. I had laundry and they managed to get it cleaned and dried for the next day, I didnt have to worry about it. It was the best place to sleep so far! Pancakes are great and I learned the recipe ☺️. Also Buda drove me to my next hotel for a good value.

    location is just a bit away from the chaos which could be a good thing. bathroom toilet too closed to the wall but that’s the only bad thing there.

    Everything, from the rice field entrance to the pool and the owner… who even offered to drive us to the airport and found us a bike to rent for a fair price. I really felt like u was involved in Bali while in there. Highly recommended.

    Nothing to note Only thing which isn’t a big deal - on booking.com it was at the time of our stay listed as having 2 outdoor swimming pools. I did ask the host about it and he didn’t seem to bothered about the fact his property was listed wrong. However two swimming pools wasn’t important to us.

    Lovely traditional feel to the place, nice pool and surrounding garden areas. Room was nice, reasonably comfy bed and bathroom was clean and more modern than some others we’ve seen.

    An incredible place. Everyone there was amazing with us and also our taxi driver, and friend, Kadek, who has advised us and taken us everywhere, his company being very pleasant. Also they recommend us a restaurant near by the hotel, called Warung Lambung Padi. This was for us one of the best places to have a meal. The staff was so kind and servicial and the food very tasty and traditional. Thank you for everything!!

    The only thing that is not 10 out of 10 was the WiFi. There were times when the internet was unavailable for a few minutes periods, which isn't a problem at all when browsing for fun, but it's not reliable for online meetings.

    A relaxing and private location 10 minutes from Ubud's center. The staff is extremely friendly and always willing to help with anything - getting a sim card, renting a scooter, calling a taxi, arranging laundry, etc... The staff member even gave a brief scooter driving lesson on his own bike. Every day, the rooms were meticulously cleaned. We had a great time here.

    A HEALTH HAZARD! STAY AWAY!! MOLD/FUNGUS INFESTATION IN CEILING
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveler
    • Standard Double Room
    • Stayed 5 nights

    A HEALTH HAZARD! STAY AWAY!! MOLD/FUNGUS INFESTATION IN CEILING During my stay I developed severe headaches and was feeling very unwell. As a result I spent most of my time in my room (always rejecting room cleaning as I was in my room). On my last day when I woke up and looked at the ceiling, I was horrified to find that the entire ceiling was covered in MOLD/FUNGUS. Upon reporting this to the staff they told me, i didn't want the room cleaning. The staff knew about the mold/fungus infestation, as they have an extra long broom to clean the fungus away daily (so they didn't care about the root cause that the huts are full of mold, they just want to hide it daily by mopping it away). I was shocked that they knew about the mould and fungus and act like it isn’t heath threatening. The staff did not care whatsoever about there being mold and fungus, they just care about getting money and hiding the mold. Several days later I am still struggling health wise. To anyone travelling to Bali i URGE you to stay somewhere else, dont risk your health to stay there.

    Ants are everywhere, in the bathroom, in the toilet, on walls and in the bed. I guess we had the worse room. Isolation between rooms is catastrophic, you can ear your neighboors snoring, talking ..like they are in the same room.

    Wildness of the place, sounds of animals around. very kind and helpful staff. Nice pool. Good breakfast.

    I booked the places cause of the price and reviews it has. Since I didn’t need to stay over night, just to drop my bags and collects them in the evening, have a shower and check out. Although I had a very limited time I would say that I won’t stay at the place again, cause I know that it’s possible to find for similar or almost similar prices better places in Bali, Ubud. Too many insects, quite untidy place. My body was itching after 1hr staying in the bed. The staff is great, I can’t say anything bad abt the ppl. But personally i wouldn’t stay again at the place and would search for another one. However I can’t complain a lot since for my personally and for the situation i had, it was good enough for the money I payed. I know Ubud and Bali is in general full of different insects but Iv stayed for 2 weeks there and can say that there are places where ppl really control that and you don’t even see them sometimes. So overall I would suggest to think to book the place for the ppl who prefer a bit more of a clean and comfort. Plus location was a bit further with a hill road to go in, and the place itself is quite packed so resting in the pool would not be an opinion of a person likes a bit of privacy. Again. Ppl who operates the place are great, very welcoming.

    We stayed for 8 days, we had to use the shower water with moderation to last for the whole shower, and most of the time the second person had to wait 30 minutes to have hot water. But the most important thing we didn’t like about the property was the cleanliness. We found everyday gecko poo on our bet sheets, I even ask the staff specifically to change our sheets, and we left the blanket on the floor for the staff to remember that it needs to be changed. And later when we came back we found the bed made, but was with the same bed sheets. None of us got the sheets changed during our stay of 8 days. For all 3 rooms we had. The owner tried to be helpful and always offered to help us with all kinds of trips, excursions and transportation arrangements. But unfortunately the quotes we got from him were either more expensive than other tour organizers, or in the best case same price. And we kinda felt pressured into booking with him. Thing that in the end costed us, because we decided to book the transportation to our next location through him and ended up paying a lot more because when we arrived at the harbor our host never had the booking confirmation. And we ended up buying last minute tickets for the next ferry. Which were more then double the initial negotiated price.

    The location was close to Ubud center.

    There were no complimentary water bottles or washed towels provided each day which is normally done in hotels. Only at the start i.e., during check-in , 2 water bottles and towels were given and after that none were available.

    Behaviour of the staff was good.

    Cleaning could be more thorough in general. Some dust, marks of humidity and dead insects in the mosquito net on the bathroom window. I didn’t use the kitchen because some parts were dirty. The plastic trash bins were a bit disgusting. Breakfast was okay but I was disappointed not to have a fried rice option like in every other hotel I stayed in. The personnel was nice but I didn’t feel the « family vibe » I had in other guesthouses.

    Pool was great! Very silent and beautiful spot. Personnel is nice. Rooms are big and bed is very comfy.

    I could hear every single breath of my neighboor. Felt like we slept together. Cleaning was bad, I was pretty suprised when I realized they didnt change the bed sheet! Also keep in mind that a gecko may sh*t on you at night because there is no reinforced concrete or plywood ceiling under the roof. But its just a cottage way so no complain for this.

    Nice people.

    Walls were very thin so could hear everyone else. This also meant family we were travelling with being woken up throughout the night by their neighbour who was taking phone calks until the early hours of the morning

    Good location out of Ubud so was easy to access the city but much quieter and more relaxed. Set in the rice fields and the location was beautiful. Breakfast was nice and the pool was great.

    We love our stay in Ubud in a wonderful Buda Cottage. We had a really pleasant relaxed time thanks to Buda and his staff, who helped us with all troubles, answered all our questions. We also rented a bike for a good price. The breakfast was very good. Thank you for your care!
