Review: Good for the price
Positive points: Pros: near port and seafood warungs. Owners are very hands on and very nice. Ibu even waiting for me when my checkin time is almost 2am.nnCons: no individual light and outlet and privacy curtain. But no issue for me as I stayed only to sleep.
Review: Its a Perfect place for Staying une night, the owner its so nice, the room are clean and smell good (maybe a Little bit to small if you have backpack but its ok)nThanks 🫶🏼
Positive points: Owner was very friendly and helpful finding things around serangan. It was definitely the cleanest spot around, if not the only one.
Review: Great location(if you’re looking for something near the harbour), no fuss. Ideal for a night’s stay. Breakfast exceeded expectations and staffs were incredibly welcoming and helpful.
Positive points: i picked the location because the reviews were excellent. and indeed it was very very very clean. i could feel the pride of Anne holding her homestay so amazingly clean. Anne had scrubbed everything spotless. i could feel that there would not even be any bugs (except some pretty aggressive mosquitoes). I moved to a 4 star hotel afterwards and i can say that in comparison this homestay was extremely clean. the problem was the moisture. pieces of the wall were falling off. i understand that they can’t do much about the rain. i debated whether i should even write a review. the only reason i am writing it is that i am looking for a place for my next trip and it is so helpful to read the real reviews. i suppose if i had read a review like this i could have prepared by bringing bedsheets that would be insulating. and thermal underwear. and maybe an extra sweater or two. December is the rainy season. the whole island suffers. truly this was a “palace” compared to other home stays i have been over the years. i would argue that this was the best place in the island in terms of cleaning. the problem is that there is probably nothing in the island for a foreign visitor. too bad. i had dreamed about bicycling around the island. the location is very picturesque. and Anne was going to provide me with a bicycle. i was just not prepared for the moisture and the cold. i had one jacket and too sarongs and a warm comfy dress that i wore instead of my nightgown and the air condition on 30oC heat was on. and i was shivering all night. i had no rest. i was there for a conference and i knew i could not survive without sleep. this is a fundamental flaw in the construction since there is no insulation or a mot draining the foundations of the building so the water of the rain gets up in the room. as i said the mold was scrubbed clean. the walls were repainted. the bathroom was spotless. this was an on going situation because of the rain.
Negative points: the moisture was off the charts. the smell of musky was strong. the moisture was so penetrating that i was chilled to the bone and i could not sleep at night. i only stayed one night and i could not sleep. i moved out after one night. i could not even ask for a refund because of the no refund policy.
Review: its really suitable who want to stay for a night only (just sleep at night) not cost too much, the host really friendly and prepare the breakfast for you. really enjoyed it even i just start for airport transfer only. plus you can take fast boat here, no need to go to Sanur Harbour.
Positive points: The host was so sweet and helpful in getting me the best price for a boat to Lembogan and even driving me to the boat launch. The breakfast was great, the location is perfect, and the host was beyond extraordinary. Would stay again.
Negative points: Maybe a squeegee or something in the bathrooms for the water after showering
Review: Annie looked after me helped with all my travel agreements got me a cheaper price all round ..ngreat breakfast super friendly ..🤟🏿
Positive points: Clean, comfortable, and friendly. Checking in at 1am after a late flight was no problem and it was walking distance from my boat to Gili Air.
Review: The hostel was a great location and the staff was extremely nice and helpful. Pool area was sweet.
Positive points: This was a place to stay before flying to Komodo, The staff was helpful and the room was comfortable. Good wifi.
