Pondok Kebun Gunung

The house was clean, the linens new and fresh. The location is perfect for exploring the area around. Also there are some good cafe nearby. Good point to see the sunrise. The staff was very polite and helpful.

The only thing we didn’t like - the pig farm just under the house. It was very smelly sometimes.

I didn’t expect much from this accommodation because I considered it a budget option for one night, but when we arrived there I was surprised in a really good way! All people working there are amazing. We requested an early check-in and they did their best to arrange it. We booked one of the room on the upper level with a private bathroom and it was brand new. The view is incredible, the breakfast they served us in the morning was good: fried rice with chicken, fried eggs and tea, simple but delicious. There is a kettle in the room, so if you need to make a cup of coffee, you can do it. We didn’t hear any noise from the road, but heard roosters from 2am which is totally ok because it is the countryside, this can be easily solved with a pair of earplugs.

There wasn’t any duvet cover or a sheet for a blanket in the room. However, we asked for a sheet and they provided it upon request. Also the hot water in the shower runs for around 5 minutes, so you have to be quick. There wasn’t any fan or a/c in the room, so at night it was a little bit stuffy, but we just got used to a/c working 24/7 and I guess for most people it won’t be the case. In this area in general there are a lot of flies, so be prepared for that.

Tidy, comfortable, friendly and great value. The view was excellent and the breakfast an added bonus.

Description incorrectly states 3 large beds in each room. There is actually 1 large bed in the rooms. This is a genuine listing accident on the part of the owner and I’m sure will be rectified. He was so kind and organised an extra bed for us at no extra charge.

A simple but very cosy place! Father and son very polite and very helpful! I recommend both for couples and for travellers only !!

Nothing

great outlook over the valley. On a clear morning there were stunning views of Gunung Agung, Abung and Batur.
