    An amazing hostel surrounded by nature, with simple yet super clean and cozy rooms. There are plenty of activities and things to do nearby, and the staff is incredible

    I did not like, that I got the feeling that it's all about the money. Everywhere we vent even on the tour (rice fields and waterfalls) you have to pay extra everywhere. We got a bit upset with booking a taxi. So if you book a taxi you pay for the car. They wanted even more money because we were 3 to share the ride and the cost. It's sometimes a feeling of always getting as much money from the tourist as possible The Moschee is right next to the hostel house so be prepared for noise at 4:30 and bring some earplugs.

    It was a great family atmosphere with the other travelers. So a few people including me have extended their stay. The location is nice. The nature around is nice. And we chilled at Sama Sama in the evening to have some drinks together or just chill at the pool.

    As a solo female traveller, the male staff could be quite intense. Try to keep some distance.

    Everything is very nice, from the beds to the view and the restaurant. A lot of places for chilling and a beautiful and cold pool. And not expensive at all!

    Well if you read other reviews you can get the picture. It’s a basic Hostel, bathrooms need improvement for privacy, hot water was not available etc, but it as a great community around it to outweigh any negative aspects. Definitely don’t skip on the earplugs you will need it.

    Really easygoing vibe, if you just booked a couple nights be prepared because you will want to extend it ☺️ Luckily you can just talk with the staff and they will sorted it out for you. The best thing about this property is that you can use the facilities in Sama Sama Bungalows. So you are paying for a hostel but then you can use their pool and at night you can eat there and there is a great atmosphere going on. Live music sometimes and the people are amazing. And you can book guided walking tour from Sama Sama bungalows also, as well as transportation. I definitely recommend doing the walking tour, Figo our guide and also the cook in Sama Sama, is such an amazing guy. You can also rent a scooter in Sama Sama. Another great thing about this hostel is the location. I just walk up to the monkey forest by myself and was able to see some black monkeys, I also found some rice fields and a waterfall just 10min walking from the property(opposite direction to the monkey forest). As a tip I would recommend you to eat in Warung the monkey forest, really great food and is just 5min walk from the hostel.

    An affordable mountain retreat with stunning views, great weather, and amazing people.

    I wish I could have stayed longer! Also, the Rinjani hike can be a bit expensive but that isn't really their fault, it's the going rate. Otherwise, everything else was priced very well and I would definitely recommend!

    I really enjoyed my stay here. Everybody from the staff to the other guests and the locals were all so friendly. The location is perfect for a mountain getaway with plenty of nearby affordable or free attractions to check out. The food was great and bed comfortable.

    only thing was no basin in the bathroom, had do use the faucet from the shower to wash hands/ brush teeth but this really wasn’t an issue

    the staff are so kind and welcoming, saturday night with the live band and bonfire was such a special way to connect with other people and locals from the village. the two warungs on site were great, was easy for me to order vegan meals :) basic bedrooms and bathrooms but they provide everything you need - water refill, towels etc

    Perfect location. Love that they’re right next to (and friends/ family) with Sama Sama bungalows - which is a perfect place to chill in the day and evenings. Really comfy beds, free water, great free breakfast. The most peaceful place in Indonesia with the best staff around.

    Very cute Hostel with an amazing view from the Restaurant and with a good view. The owner is very nice and you you can organize a tour through the local villages or ricefields and waterfalls. You can also just walk around on your own and explore the village, the nature is very beautiful!
