Caroline Guest House

The room was basic, but fair for the price, and the staff were welcoming. I spent two nights here while in Bali and had a nice stay. There’s no car parking, though scooters are fine. The guesthouse has an indoor pool, kitchen, small cafe, mini mart, and luggage storage if you arrive before check-in. I’d recommend staying here at this price.

Caroline is in a great spot, with lots of cute cafes, restaurants, and fitness places nearby, and the price is very good. Our room was clean and comfortable, and the staff were friendly. We did have a couple of annoyances: the toilet sometimes gave off a really bad smell, and the sink and shower water pressure would occasionally cut out. We still really enjoyed our stay and recommend it.

We paid a good rate through Agoda for a deluxe room that looked like the photos, but the stay was disappointing. The location is near the beach, though being constantly asked by nearby shop owners if we wanted something and Grab drivers if we needed a ride got annoying. In the room, the sheets and towels looked dirty and possibly unchanged, and we found bugs under the pillows. The shower head was so clogged with limescale that barely any water came through, but staff replaced it after we reported it. We had to switch rooms on the first night. Reception came to inspect and asked if we wanted another room, which felt ironic given the condition. They let us look at it first, but provided no fresh towels, and our room wasn’t cleaned despite what other reviews said.

A clean, well-equipped place with spacious rooms, soft beds, and fresh towels. There’s an indoor pool and plenty of room to work. It’s affordable and only a short walk from the beach. I’d highly recommend it.
