De Rekun Ubud

Location was ok, and the compound was good.

I came very late as my flight was arriving late. I had written a message about my checkin time and I specifically wrote them to have staff there for the checkin. They confirmed somebody would wait for my arrival. I arrived around midnight, there were no one, I waited around 15 mins. Staff came and opened the door for me. The room was dirty and there were too many bugs in the room. I felt like they did the cleaning one month ago. There was a big cockroach in the bathroom (which is acceptable as we are in a forest) but huge stain on the pillow and several spots in the bedsheet is not acceptable. The moment I started observing the bedsheet, I found more. Little bugs, little flies and one spider was walking in the bed!! I spent 20 minutes cleaning the bed. I put my shawl on the bed and slept like this. Couldnt use the pillows. Couldnt sleep with this bad psychology and my whole night was spoiled. Before I went to the bed, I texted the owner/ manager that I had the whsatpp number, I sent all the photos I am attaching here. As a reply I got : oh I am sorry, please contact marketing. THIS IS THE SERVICE YOU MIGHT GET IF YOU STAY IN THIS PLACE. Just to set your expectation!

The staff was very very nice & friendly, moreover the location of the hotel is fascinating, it’s sort of in a junglish area very beautiful.

We arrived around 9.50 in the night & no one was there, we had already collected our key & had to ask the wifi password from next door neighbour.

Was super nice!

the kitchen but nothing serious

I don’t have much to say. The staff were lovely, friendly and did an exceptional job, always down to help. It is far from the city center of Ubud but we didn’t mind because we wanted to relax and escape from all of the city noise. Moreover, the bed and the pillows were very comfortable, as I needed it for my neck. Last thing I have to say is that they clean the room everyday! I would love to stay in De Rekun again.

Minor things that didn’t affect my staying .

The hosts were lovely and friendly. Cooked a fresh breakfast to order everyday. Room was a good size and the bed was comfortable.

Location-due to traffic it took ages to get to and from town but if you have a bike it shouldn’t be a problem.
