Unexpected charges and refunds6 of 2621 in 44 reviews
SPA price changes rather than advertising as attached photo, Room humidity, breakfast only eggs, chicken was terrible, long buggy waiting duration

What we found disappointing, particularly given the room rates, was the constant upselling.

Mould or damp5 of 2621 in 52 reviews
Even with the dehumidifier running, it was still damp, so inevitably, there was a sour smell.

You need a taxi or scooter to get around4 of 2621 in 66 reviews
During traffic, it took us around 40mins to get to central Ubud, along small and windy roads.

Problems in the bathroom3 of 2621 in 87 reviews
Despite its location in the jungle, the unrealistic bathroom layout and uninspiring interior design make the bathroom smell awful, and the stones in the bathroom are incredibly stained.
