A few minutes walk down the road opposite the Mola Mola Temple and 5 min walk from Samapalan Harbour (30 min by scooter from Banjar Nyuh Harbour). Close to restaurants and the night market. Big comfy beds and large security lockers for belongings. Clean bathrooms and nice shaded outside garden area for chilling. The family owners are really kind and friendly!

The property had what you needed, the owner was super helpful and even dropped me at the boat pier. Sorted a scooter for me with ease and always checked everything was okay. I believe I was the only one staying here at the time so perhaps not the most social. The beds were spacious and private with good locker room.

The owner is the nicest person ever, he is so kind, he always has a smile on and helps you with everything! I was staying there at Nyepi and enjoyed the silence day at this hostel very much. I can only recommend this place:)0

Nice staff, easy to rent bikes and nice common space. Bugs crawling over the beds though (NOT bed bugs but just general creepy crawlies). Outside of the typical tourist part of town, but fun to explore another zone. Nice garden space as well and good lockers.

Pour moi cet hostel est fait pour du repos, donc c’était très calme mais bien pour moi. L’hostel est relativement bien situé mais si vous avez peur des chiens comme moi c’est compliqué de sortir sans avoir des chiens agressifs donc attention ! En revanche malheureusement ce n’était pas propre. (Au niveau des salles de bains)

such a nice place to stay!! super well maintained and clean, beds are perfect for privacy. staff are super helpful for booking things. you will need a scooter to get around but that’s true for most places you’d stay. not very social but perfect for unwinding. close enough to lots of food places

A true 10/10! I loved this hostel so much. Beds, showers and bathrooms were clean, the people are low-key (no wild parties) but friendly, and the staff is so kind! The owner and friends made sure we got to do everything we wanted and still catch our boat, plus they helped us meet some other travelers who joined our tour, cut costs down, and became friends ^_^ couldn’t recommend enough and I hope to be back some day!

Hostel owners were lovely and incredibly helpful, including giving us a lift to the ferry on the last day and organising trips. Location a bit out the way, but fine with a bike that you can rent from them for a good price. Comfortable pod beds

Very Nice quiet hostel with amazing staff! The guy at the reception was super friendly, maybe the most friendly we’ve met in our holiday to Indonesia. He picked us up after our snorkeling/diving and gave us a ride to the harbour after it. When we asked how much we had to pay him, he said “nothing because you were my guests”. Just because of his kindness we gave him 100k IDR which he fully deserved

Great little hostel in a good location to harbour. The pods are a great idea and give you real privacy during the night to sleep. Shower facilities decent. A fairly quiet place to stay, you will need a scooter to get around the island to see the beaches - so easy to do via the hostel as soon as you arrive. Special shout-out to all the staff at Packer Box! You guys were absolutely brilliant, helped us so much and thank you so much for the friendly chat, picking us up from restaurant late at ni...

Great place. The whole pod set up (where you have your bed in a small pod thing) is awesome. You can close your blinds and feel like you have your own space, it is a 15 min scooter from the port / where the boat drops you from Lembongan so I’d hire a scooter (plus to see the sites of Penida you will need a scooter, unless you want to hire a driver). Staff are very helpful, and help with anything you need. FYI make sure to book your ferry ticket to Gili T at least a day or two before as it sell...

My shoes were stolen (TWICE) during my stay here. The staff didn’t know the pin code for a security camera so they couldn’t help at all… At least during my stay, the hostel was super unsocial, but it was easy to rent a scooter from the reception and go explore the island.
