Birru Inn

Nice location (need moped though as it is very far from any nice beaches - kuta beach isn’t that nice), kuta town only a 20 min walk. Really good value for money though, stayed for 8 nights and had a very pleasant time there.

Could’ve been a bit cleaner, some stains on the sheets but nothing major.

Staff was super friendly and of service. Helped us sort out some trouble with a dcooter we rented and were very attentive. The location is away from Kuta centre which makes the place peaceful but close enough to walk to restaurants and shops or 1 minute scooter ride. The air con was silent and cold. Room was very spacious and balcony too. The bed was super wide and comfy.

Breakfast is bad. Small portion, not many options and bad quality. Since they don’t open the kitchen in the morning, they ask you what time you want breakfast on the next day (which they cook the night before and then warm up in the morning), and it is also very inconvenient since on holidays I don’t want to schedule a certain time for breakfast the night before. Better book without breakfast and go elsewhere, there’s plenty of good places. The tap in the toilet was bad. Water going everywhere but to the sink. We had to open it just a tiny bit not to get wet. Almost every night you have the teenagers on the streets playing around with their bikes, accelerating and being very noisy. We were at the back room luckily, but we could still hear them. If you’re in one of the front rooms, may God help you. They don’t go until too late, maybe 11pm. There’s mothballs in the toilet, which turns to a not very good smell…but I understand it might be to keep roaches and other insects away. The bikes that the hotel offers are not the best. Better off walking to town and check other options. There’s heaps! No safe box.

It was right by the beach and the rooms, while simple, were clean and perfect for what we needed. The reception staff also helped to book us a scooter which arrived within 10 minutes of us checking in. It’s the perfect budget hotel.

The bed was slightly uncomfortable, but I’m really nitpicking here.
