The Swell

Hostel rooms are really mouldy. They close the rooms off with no AC when no one is staying in them. Of course it's going to be full of mould you can see it on the beds and a lot of surfaces have remnants of it. Atmosphere for a hostel is largely nonexistent, not many people staying there. The resturant and pool is used a lot by expats staying in the area rather than hostel guests. The resturant while a little expensive it totally worth it though.

Would give a 1 star rating if possible. I’ve been travelling for over 5 years now and this was the worst I’ve ever been spoken to by anyone over the whole period. The manager laughed in our face and became aggressive when asked if we could check out early and get a 50% refund for our unused nights due to the extremely loud noise from construction and festival-goers. Also room was full of bugs and hostel doesn’t look like picture anymore due to being surrounded by construction sites.

Close to a nice sunset spot (beach love) and surf spot. 25 min ride away from Canggu but knew this already so that's okay. Not very social. Staff is nice but tends to be forgetful about minor requests like "no ice". Overall nice stay but was very disappointing to be asked smth like 100.000 or 200.000 when I asked if I can check out 1 hour later.
