    Unfortunately because of the outline of the facilities it seems hard to fight the mold. It wasn‘t too bad, not strong smell but you could see the walls.

    Absolute serene location, totally tucked away in nature, super quiet and quite nice facilities. Also a Yoga Shala is included! The staff were super friendly, from early check-in to walking me through the rain with the umbrella to my driver in the main street.

    ‏We booked a budget room. The room itself is fine, but the shower is very small and located right over the toilet.

    The breakfast was excellent, and the place itself is welcoming. The managers are very nice.

    The shower should be repaired. It's leaking.

    Great location. Close to the centre and not far from the monkey forest. Comfortable bed, air conditioning. Large kitchen. It is possible to buy breakfast. There is coffee and water. You can do yoga. There is a laundry nearby. Overall, it's a good place.

    The accommodation is situated in a peaceful spot, surrounded by lush tropical greenery, a few minutes walk (less by scooter) along a narrow path - not accessible by car - from the main east-west road in Ubud, JL Raya Ubud. So you get to be close to amenities when you want them, but just far enough away to be quiet and calm. Ketut the manager was incredibly friendly and helpful. He also cooks a delicious Nasi Goreng for breakfast if you ask (n.b. breakfast is not included). I was there a month, and he arranged for my laundry to be done and a stand-in driver when my regular one wasn't available. He will also sort a scooter out for you if you need one (I didn't). The room was spacious and comfortable, if basic and in need of some repairs from previous water damage in bathroom wall (no mold though), but with a really good air conditioner and a small balcony. The bed was extrememly comfortable. Hot water was always available in the in-bath shower (personally I would have preferred a straight shower). You can take as much drinking water as you need from a hot/cold/normal safe bottled water dispensing machine in the shared terrace sitting area. I found the wifi worked very reliably in all areas. My room was cleaned everyday by friendly staff, with clean towels every couple of days or so. There is a yoga shala below the shared terrace sitting area, offering daily 8am classes.

    Would have been nicer to have more of an area for hanging out and the option to have breakfast, but these are just small things. Mosquitos are crazy here but that’s not the fault of the property- bring some deet if you are prone to bites!!

    This place feels like a hidden gem, really central location but a little tucked away so you feel relaxed from the hustle and bustle. It has a great yoga deck and absolutely beautiful surroundings. Rooms are basic but clean and very cute.

    There are some insect in my room. I think the room should have some insects repellents

    The place is secluded and peaceful, even though it's close to city center. This place is also close to paddy field. A really good place for a short escape

    Small issues: tissue would need refills when finished; the cleaning of the rooms could be deeper; one of my shirts was lost at a laundry; the bathtub is practically not usable due to a shortage of hot water.

    Perhaps the calmest and most peaceful place you may be able to stay at in Ubud. The staff is incredibly kind, the terrace lobby is wonderfully situated, at the crossroads of a warm sun, a pleasant breeze, the sounds of water and the surrounding vegetation.

    There wasn’t much!

    We only stayed for one night! It was a great location tucked away in the jungle. WiFi was not the best and you did not really have signal, but it is nice to disconnect for a little while! Staff were responsive on WhatsApp if we needed anything.

    The room itself. We stayed in a budget double room, which desperately needs a thorough refurbishment due to mold stains and peeling paint.

    The location is very central, yet quiet. The common terrace is great, surrounded by lush greenery. When in the guesthouse, we spent most of our time on the terrace. Very peaceful stay.

    The bathrooms have no ventilation, so the humidity after shower is terrible and it goes to the room, therefore the room smells terrible and so does the bathroom, even if they clean it every day and also if turning on the AC. Although the bathroom has a very small window, it is covered with plastic! (Instead of using mosquito net or so). Also, would be good to note in the description of the homestay that it is not reachable by car, so you have to walk 5min (including uphill in some sections), which can be tough with luggage, especially if traveling with grandma as was our case.

    Nice view, feeling in the middle of the jungle. Close to the main street and yet super quiet. Gusman the receptionist was really nice.

    The Deluxe Room is big and comfy. The place is surrounded by nature, there is a big shared outdoor area and yoga classes are offered daily. All in all it’s a good place to stay in Ubud, as it’s near to the centre, but located in a quite neighborhood (only reachable by foot oder scooter).
