Ikke som forventet…
Pros:

Personalet er veldig flinke og smilende til enhver tid. De tar godt imot deg.

Cons:

Rommet levde slett ikke opp til bildene og den rating andre har gitt stedet tidligere. Vi booket et dobbeltrom deluxe, men det var dessverre langt ifra deluxe. Det var tydelig at det var snakk om et oppussingsprosjekt som har gått i stå. Det var små fluer som svermet i kjøkkenvasken og så var det et lite hyggelig sted at være. Kunne da se ut som at andre rom hadde bedre standard.

Een geweldige locatie met de prijs van kakkerlakken en bali belly...
Pros:

- Er zijn 4 kussens en het bed is oke, je voelt de veren wel in je rug drukken.
- De airco werkt goed
- heerlijk warme douche, maar deze gaat soms wel opeens kouder en warmer
- Het personeel is erg aardig
- Locatie erg goed, alles op loopafstand
- Wij zaten in kamer 5, die een beetje naar de zijkant zat waardoor je wel meer privacy had
- er werd wel om de paar dagen schoongemaakt, maar het beddengoed werd pas verschoond nadat we dit vroegen (we waren er 7 dagen)

Cons:

- Om de dag kwamen we een kakkerlak tegen, een dag zelfs 3! En deze waren groot, like 5 cm lange kakkerlakken die o.a. door de douchegoot de kamer in kwamen.
- het ontbijt... de ingredients werden gepakt uit een koelkast vol met mieren & schimmelende producten. We hebben hier hoogstwaarschijnlijk Bali belly van gekregen en hebben hier na dag 2 geen gebruik meer van gemaakt. Daarnaast ruikt de eethoek erg muf.
- De bidetkraan lekte continu en hard waardoor de badkamervloer gedeeltelijk altijd nat was
- Er zat schimmel op de gordijnen
- er waren veel mieren rondom en soms in de kamer
- de 1e avond viel de spiegel in de nacht op de grond omdat deze niet goed vast zat. Deze is niet vervangen de rest van ons verblijf.
- Er is geen drinkwater station of vat om flesjes bij te vullen en worden ook geen flesjes geleverd

Basic but could do with amendments
Pros:

Basic hostel. Nobody in the dorm room when I booked. Close to beach and harbour.

Cons:

Shower was only cold and very poor, the bathroom did not feel clean at all. Ant infestation on the balcony area. Bed sheets did not look or feel clean. Curtain rail doesn’t even go half way around one side of bed so no privacy sharing a room

Very nice place !!!
Pros:

Everything was perfect.
Super nice to have a little drink and pancake for breakfast.
The staff was really nice and even dropped me at the harbour on departure.
Room is clean, with a nice terrasse, plus it was only me in the dorm so very comfy.
A bit off the main road so quiet.

Perfect location!!!!
Pros:

I have to say a big thank you to the owner, who welcomed us warmly and tried to take care of us as best she could.
The rooms was really nice and we also enjoyed the breakfast.

Cons:

We had enough bugs crawling in our room. But I know that sometimes it is difficult to do something with this.

Thank you
Pros:

I stayed here for 9 nights. As many of the other reviews state, the hosts are so welcoming/friendly/helpful. The aircon worked. The bed was comfortable. The location is close to dive centers, a quiet part of the beach, and restaurants, including cheaper warungs. Breakfast is available during a wide range (which is helpful when you have diving at 7AM!). Thank you!

Cons:

No complaints

Value for money, not for fussy people
Pros:

Not for fussy people. I choose this accommodation as it's a stone's throw from Legend Diving. Room is big, bed is big. But toilet cleaniness can be improved. No kettle, no drinking water is provided. But that's not a big deal for us. The host/owner is warm hearted, kind and friendly. She prepared simple breakfast and attend to our request. Definitely will stay here again if we come to Lembongan
