I broke my ankle on my holiday in Bali and I therefore stayed 8 nights at this hostel, in one of the private rooms.The staff was so accomodating and friendly, which made my pain a bit more bearable.The included breakfast and dinner is all vegetarian and honestly very tasty.The private rooms are very cute, although the bathroom is a bit outdated.Would highly recommended this hostel 😊

Clearly the best youth hostel in Bali in Ubud!As soon as we arrive, we are taken care of, they offer many activities. The staff are very welcoming, always happy to help us. They organize games (bingo) and others available every evening to share with others. Yoga, massage. Nothing to say, it was a heavenly stay.Recommend +++

Me and my girlfriend stayed here in a private room. The room was next to the hostel on another property so this was nice and peaceful however, you still get all the perks that the hostel offers.Our room was on the bottom level next to where the staff live, they had ducks which occasionally woke us up but otherwise they were cute.The room itself had nice decor, the bed was firm but bearable.In the advertising photos there’s no images of the bathroom and there’s good reason. Super outdated, rusted shower fixtures and grime all over the shower walls (not cleaned in some time)The staff were very accomodating, and we could not fault them.Only other negative was the scooter hire. They initially gave us a helmet with a giant crack so beware to inspect the equipment prior to hire.We also had a burst tire on the bike whilst riding out of town, I contacted the hostel who promptly sent out someone with an emergency bike.
