    The free dinner is an interesting option and the gym + table tennis + billiard place is also a quite nice addition

    Waking up to a free tea in the pool is lovely. Great social area with beanbags and family dinner brings everyone together. One of the dorms is really nice, the other ok but a bit rundown (I stayed in both). Good shower pressure and generally clean.

    The owner is a tyrant. The staff are lovely folk but you can see they're visibly stressed when he's around. I overheard him shouting down the phone over a really minor thing. And he has strange rules like the music has to stay on his (kinda depressing) playlist... But the worst thing is I heard from more than one female guest that he found their number on the booking system and messaged them things that made them feel unsafe. This is a problem that goes beyond the usual hostel stuff and this dude needs to take a long hard look at himself. Beware!

    Free dinners were so yummy. Staff were so amazing and helpful. You can make good friends here cause people are really social and we eat dinner together.

    Toilets need a revamp. Almost all the toilet seats and shower heads were broken. Was there for only 4 days but there was a power outage every single day. Toilet flushes dont work all the time so it can get really gross but the staff do their best to clean it everyday. Water supply from sinks and showers were very weak in the early mornings or late nights. It says there is aircon but they only turn it on at certain timings, so when it is not on, the room can get very stuffy and hot. No free water refills so you have to keep buying bottles of water.

    Creepy owner made many girls uncomfortable by finding their number and messaging them to take the out even after being told no multiple times. Very creepy behaviour and unprofessional

    The showers are powerful and hot and there is space outside to relax. The beds are dark and quiet for sleeping.

    The dorms don't feel very clean and for the price you get a very basic experience. It's fine but feels overpriced for what it is unfortunately.

    I loved the vibe of the hostel, the people, and the amazing atmosphere. The staff were very attentive and always ready to help. The capsules were super comfortable and offered great privacy, which I really appreciated. I also enjoyed the entertainment room and the training space, both were excellent additions.

    Nothing, everything was great.

    Lovely social but chill vibe, made a lot of friends here and the pool/hangout area is good. Pod beds are good and you don’t feel like you’re sharing with 20 people.

    It was in a great location. Not right in the Center of town so away from all the traffic and noise, but a short walk down the road to where everything is. The pods were very cozy and large with enough space for a bed, wardrobe, and small luggage. The staff were absolutely lovely and so kind.

    The rooms felt a bit damp, but the staff were constantly cleaning to mitigate any mold build up.

    Dinners were pretty yum and a good way to bring everyone together and meet new people. The rooms were okay, relatively quiet for a 20 person room. Staff were helpful.

    No water cooler was a big downside. Had to use so many plastic bottles. This would be a relatively inexpensive thing to offer and woild make such a big difference. There was lots of things broken in the bathroom that would be easy to fix. Didn’t see anyone use the pool during my stay.

    Thus is by gar the best hostel I've stayed in Kuta! There is a great social side that is not alcohol based, chilled vube with free dinner in the evening. The facilities are also amazing with a table tennis table...I will definitely be back and 100% recommend 😎

    I really enjoyed staying here. The beds are comfortable and spacious. The staff and the yoga instructor are really nice and always available for any help. Morning yoga was a really good start into the day and the evenings were social.

    The bathroom was flooded sometimes but not to bad.

    The vibe is good and lots of people to hangout out with

    During the night I went to the toilet and the only available toilet was flooding the entire bathroom and corridor. Dormitory very humid, and cold during nights because of AC.

    The most social hostel I’ve been in 8 months traveling. Good vibe, good swimming pool, clean and nice toilet and showers, hot water. And free dinner. I guess it’s difficult to ask for more.

    The plug in my bed was not working. Just small thing. Overall good.
