In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Exceptional staff service — Multiple reviews highlight staff who remember guests by name, offer local tips, and go out of their way—like saving a waterlogged phone with a rice trick.
  • Central yet quiet location — Guests praise the location in the heart of Ubud, close to attractions like the Monkey Forest, while noting it remains peaceful at night.
  • Clean and well-kept facilities — The owner is often credited with maintaining spotless bathrooms and common areas, a standout point across many reviews.
  • Great value for money — At $9 per night, guests repeatedly say it's worth every cent, with free Wi-Fi, breakfast, and a lively atmosphere included.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No pets allowed — The hostel's policy prohibits pets, so travelers with animals will need to make other arrangements.
  • Limited private accommodation — The only listed room type is a single bed dormitory, meaning no private rooms are available.
  • Potential noise from live entertainment — While guests enjoy the live music, it may create some noise in the evenings, though reviews note the hostel remains quiet at night.
  • Check-in window requires planning — Guests must check in between 14:00 and 23:00, so arriving outside these hours (e.g., overnight) would be impossible.

“The owner, Dewa, took great care of the place, ensuring it was incredibly clean, especially the bathrooms. The staff were friendly, professional, and genuinely warm. They made an effort to know each guest by name, creating a welcoming atmosphere. The central location was perfect for exploring, and despite being in the heart of the action, it was peaceful and quiet at night. Breakfast was delicious, made with love, and we appreciated the free coffee, tea, and water refills, plus hot water in the showers.”
