Pros:

The location was perfect, right next to an atm, laundry, convenience store. It is your own private room with AC for the same price you would pay for a dorm bed. Also breakfast is included!! I extended my stay cause I loved the place and the owner is so friendly.

Cons:

Only negative thing I can say is that there’s no grab in Amed but you don’t need it cause everything is in walking distance.

Unique Experience.
Pros:

Good location, private room.

Cons:

First of all the sheets were extremely dirty, on top of that the whole bed was covered in hair. Athough the room was claned 5m prior. Somehow even after trying to get rid of the hair for 20min i kept finding more 2 nights later. After the first night Ants was comming from the ceiling and walls behind the bed, and there was a cockroach nest under the bed with plenty of dead ones. Also woke up to one crawling around. I do think i got unlucky and got the smallest room. After 2 nights with all this i asked for a room change but wasent possible. Left early, no partial refund.

Correcte per estada curta
Pros:

L'habitació i el llit estan be. L'amabilitat del personal i el menjar correcte.

Cons:

L'habitació està a prop de la carretera i se senten les motos i els cotxes. Per una nit està be.

For the price, it doesn't get any better than this. Wonderful hostesses and a comfortable simple rm
Pros:

Dewi, the hostess, is wonderful. The room is simple and sufficient. The shared bathroom is nothing fancy, but it has what you need. You're here because it's cheap, not for luxury. The AC works well in your room. The cafe (my home office) is steps away — with great, cheap homemade food.
Wifi works excellent. Everyone who works here is a sweetheart. For the price, what more can you ask for ? They truly make me feel at home.
Thank you Dewi and the rest of the Backpackers Home / Moon Cafe staff. Suksema mewali. You make me feel at home.

Cons:

Because of proximity to the road, there is some noise at times. But it's not near the dogs that bark all night, just a block or two away near Poke Bowl Amed. I put on a little music and sleep just fine — and I'm an insomniac !

The best budget short-term stay I have found in Amed, after staying in four places and visiting 15+
Pros:

Dewi, the hostess, is wonderful. She is always smiling and welcoming, gracious, kind, and helpful. She and her small team of staff were all lovely.
The room is sufficient and comfortable, though small. For the price of a shared dormitory, it's a huge bargain. I only checked out because it was full. I'll stay one night elsewhere, pay more for a less clean place without a cafe or friendly hosts, and return as soon as it's available again.

Cons:

The garden is getting a little overgrown, so cut back the ones that block the path to the rooms, please — one in particular has thorns that caught on me.

Great value for money
Pros:

Pretty sweet accomodation for the price. Great location, friendly staff and basic free breakfast. Definitely can't complain for the price. I would come back again for sure!

Cons:

Like I said, value for money was great. Parking was slightly tight for scooters. Good luck if you have a car 🙃. Oh, the bathroom latch and lock for the streetside bathroom was a little tight.
