My second room was not very enjoyable: small, smelled like animal urine, & no reliable hot water in the shower. The owner doesn't speak much english but I showed him the problem with the hot water & he kept trying to say it was fixed when it was not. He could get hot water to come from the sink but it would not stay on in the shower. I gave up trying to get it fixed. Although breakfast was advertised in the listing it in fact is not available. They also advertise an airport taxi but that is not available either. The AC's could use a good cleaning. I got a very bad sinus infection while here. I can't say for sure that the AC was the cause but it definitely made it worse. The staff enters your room when you're not there and does odd tasks- rearrange towels (not provide new ones), change ac settings or turn it off completely, may or may not take out trash, remake the bed (even though I make my bed daily)... I really found this intrusive.

The location is great, so much so that I actually stayed here twice: once at the beginning of my trip and again at the end. My first room was great: spacious, clean, strong shower with good hot water. The owners provide tea/coffee with a thermos of hot water each morning. Warungs and food stores are nearby so it was easy to get meals and drinking water. The property is set back from the street and is super quiet except for the noise of other guests. AC works well.

For the price....it was fine.

Location was good...very central to Central Ubud. while the room was basic it was comfortable and cleaned when required. Staff were very friendly and helpful with any requests or questions. Nice place to stay at reasonable price.

Drain smell started to arise by the second day.

Setting in a traditional family compound. Quieter than expected given proximity to busy street. Value for money. Clean.

It’s a bit hard to find, cause it’s behind another Homestay but I had a really nice guest showing me the way. If you go up the stairs you have to keep walking to leave behind the other homestay. The shower is either hot or cold, no in between and everything is a little old and rusty but functional.

It’s hosted by a cute old couple and is very central. The room is small but has everything you need (bed, desk, aircon). There was a little bit dirt in the shower but I could wash it away easily and I had the feeling that everything else is clean.

Unfortunately the bed wasn’t clean, it had some stains on the bed sheet, bedroom wasn’t cleaned, the housekeeping stuff made the bed everyday but they didn’t actually cleaned anything and I had a lot of cockroaches in the room

Affordable and located in the center so everything you may need is nearby

- Bed sheets and pillows were quite dirty . - toilet are is not the best I would say - There are some small insects everywhere so I have to put my luggage in to the middle of room . I would say this is the price you pay for . But still such staff could have been improved. It’s not hard to improve such staff if you want to . So then you won’t see such comments :)

Location is amazing .

The room was a bit run down

Cheap price, good location, nice grounds and good hot water

The room is ok but the bathroom is very old, needs renovation. Also because it was rainy season the room was always damp...

Location was great, very central but quiet. There are many shops and restaurants around.

My room was directly next to the other rooms balcony and the guests were up quite late at night talking. Not the properties fault, was just annoying for me though.

Great location, friendly owners

Just one thing needs to be a fixed hot shower. Whether it's cold or very hot there is nothing in between. It's a very small thing though.

The rooms are nice and comfortable. The location is perfect and the old couple who host us are adorable. It's a great place to stay for such a small amount of money. Although when we reached there was no one at the house but the host was thoughtful to leave the keys for us. It's a cute little cozy place. There is a nice coffee shop close to the house and an amazing restaurant named Dapur Mekpun ( must try).

Very Modest room in a Balinese style house. Very close to the main Ubud strip which was very convenient. Host was very kind and even made us coffee in the morning.

Need more appliances to charge the devices. Bit of noise in the morning but there are rosters in every places around. Preferably a bed table would be great.

Good location. The people who run the place is really nice. Great value for money. Clean rooms. Bathroom is okay. Has furniture for sitting and for hanging out clothes.

A bit too basic for the price. No contact with staff. No ventilation and so everything felt damp. No one to guide me to provide information about places to visit.

The location and how serene and beautifully it was maintained.

Stayed in July 2023

Room was extremely humid, anything that was wet would not dry properly and would smell. air circulation was bad even with windows open. Air-con did not cool air at all, only blows hot air like a fan.

very nice location and beautiful traditional balinese home

Tricky to find space for parking scooter

I did not like that on the website it says that there is a pool but it is not for diana guests but for the other home stay.

The location is good and the room also. Nothing exceptional but average with Ubud. The owner is nice and he let me check in very late in the night.

All the facilities advertised were not available, for example no pool on sight, no breakfast

Good location, helpful staff

We had to ask for hot water because otherwise they would not turn it on. Of course we didn't know this. There were some cockroaches in the bathroom at night. They offer breakfast in their Booking profile and they even have a paper in the room but when we asked for it they said they didn't offer breakfast. That's not nice.

The staff was very kind and pleasant and they let us a couple sharons to be able to enter temples.

Stayed in January 2023

the bathroom was a bit small

situated in an old traditional living space, probably many hundreds of years old.

Booking.com said : Airport transfer and breakfast. This is not correct. Cleanliness: Sheet was stained, mattress with no mattress cover and was stained with blood and mouldy and smelt damp and horrible. Pillows were black with mould. Room needs a total deep clean. Toilet also needs a total deep clean! We moved to another room and repeated the same pattern. We asked for two covers on the mattress and new sheets again. This room has no mosquito mesh. Shower difficult to operate and ran out of hot water. Curtains very thin in room and allowed a lot of light at night. Overall, these rooms need a total maintenance and replacement of many things.

Location very good,close to main attractions ,shops and restaurants.Also,close ATM'S. All the staff was very friendly. Nice Balinese garden with a tranquil ambience.

I booked my first night in Bali at Duana Homestay (Ubud, Bali) - Date: night July 27th - 28th. I informed them that my flight would arrive late and that I would be arriving after midnight. When I got there, there was no one to receive me. I knocked a few doors and no one seemed to know where I could find the people in charge. I had to sleep in the street that night. The worst way to start a holiday. I am deeply disappointed and I would like to at least be reimbursed for that night.

Nothing

Stayed in July 2024

I did not get to stay there. Nobody was there when I arrived.

I arrived and nobody was there to let me in and nobody answered my messages or calls so I was stranded in the middle of the night going from place to place for 6 hours and was forced to sleep in the street. They still have not returned my money.

Stayed in August 2024

I arrived around 11 pm, so very late, but had advised of arrival time. There was no one to check me in, it was dark so couldn't see any signs. Had to knock on doors and wake people up. Not a good start after tiring flight. The owner was very friendly though next day.

Good location and quiet. Cheap room, but basic
