Pande Permai Bungalow

2 Mathijs Schut - 2 months ago

Location and pool are nice. The room looks cool and is clean too. But the most horrible part is that there is no hot showers.
After complaining they told us to wait 15 / 30 minutes with the shower off and try again. We did so multiple times but the water stayed cold. Only on the second day we had a hot shower. The rest was either freezing or cold.
5 nights and only twice a hot shower :(

The second annoying part was that we wanted twin rooms. They said it was impossible because all rooms were booked by a group. They did provide us with a small bed which was great but they didn’t had an extra blanket for it.

Shampoo wasn’t refilled either; not all staff friendly or helpful.

Please fix your showers.

Kind of run down and neglected but the delux room was actually large and comfortable with a nice balcony. The bed was very comfortable too. Because of the lack of maintenance, the plumbing in the bathroom didn't work well and the water trickled out of the taps and the sink was very slow to drain. Close to the monkey forest which may be a positive or negative depending on your affection for macaques.

I highly recommend the deluxe double room at this place! For 20usd/night you get a bright spacious clean room with tall ceiling. We stayed in Room Tunjung and extended our stay for ten days! We had hot showers, water pressure was fine. This is our home in Ubud - especially because the owner, reception, breakfast lady and housekeeping guys as a team is the most genuine and helpful people ????❤️When we checked out it was pouring rain and they offered to motorbike us and the bags to the driver who was stuck in traffic. This was the same team we met a few years ago, they are like a family.
Location-wise it’s a few minutes walk to Monkey Forest and the monkeys actually come visit us! That we didn’t have to go to the sanctuary to see them - felt especially authentic and fun to see them on our balcony (of course we kept our belongings safe and did not feed them). Also lots of shops and cafes around, 2 min walk from minimart, 5 min walk from Bakti Laundry!
I’d just say that if you want an authentic, safe, local bungalow experience, stay here! For the same price you get a much smaller room on the same street, we checked them out. Yes, there are insects sometimes but in a way that’s common for Ubud. Also, for digital nomads, expect to use your own data for meetings cos that’s more reliable in this general area. Near Monkey Forest (next to Meguna restaurant), you will find a small booth that sells 40gb for only 100,000 rupiah.
Again this place makes us feel focused and peaceful everytime. Consider booking the bigger room because it’s so worth it. Hard to say goodbye to Ubud because of this fam!

Very small room with the hardest and most uncomfortable bed. The bedsheets only covered half the bed. The ceiling fan was broken and we were afraid it might fall down on us. We also saw a cockroach in the room.

Nice bungalow, location at the central of ubud, and the breakfast were delicious. Very nice place. The room was cleaned everyday and it had hot water. They also rent motorbikes. Breakfast is included. It is close to the Monkey Forest, so in the morning you can see a lot of monkeys jumping through the roofs.

Great location. Right on the main road in Ubud, very central. Room was spacious and clean. Pool was clean and a good size (approx. 10m). Breakfast was good. Banana pancakes and fruit on the menu! Unfortunately there are two points that I mark this place down on; paper thin walls and neighbouring rooster. The walls in this place are so think that I could hear every word spoken in the room next to me. Not ideal, especially in the mornings and late at night. The other major downer is the rooster that wakes you up at 5am and doesn't let you go back to sleep. Quite literally having the worst night's sleep at this place. Also worth mentioning that there are quite a lot of monkeys in the vicinity, what with it being so close to the monkey forest. They don't bother me so much as they normally don't come close but they do make a racket in the morning when they jump from balcony to balcony.

Great location and hotel. You get what you pay for. The most expensive rooms are amazing. Definitely not safe for kids. Lack of railing in some high drop areas. Monkeys roam around during the day. You'd have to keep a good eye on your kid.

Nice pool. Staff are friendly.

Cons: terrible breakfast. You get some stale pieces of bread and maybe an old muffin or piece of fruit. All the fruit I took wS was moudly. Wifi is okay, it cuts out frequently. Very thin walls. You can hear everything outside.

Other than that, it's very spacious and worth the $40 a night.
