  Cheap rooms, very dirty

  11 Aug 2019

  This hostel is great if you’re on a budget and just need somewhere to stay for a night or two. The beds in the dorm were fine and there are lockers in the dorms, sheets were clean. The toilets and showers are very dirty and smelly but there’s usually hot water. We stayed for two nights and weren’t in the hostel much so for us it was okay, but if you’re looking for comfort or more upmarket facilities this is not the place! Staff were friendly enough and the location is great, close to the centre and lots of places to eat. Also maybe avoid if you don’t like rats and roaches as there were a lot of both around.

  Taking budget hostel to a new level

  30 Jun 2019

  Despite the very cheap price of this hostel, the reasonably good reviews gave me hope it wouldn’t be TOO bad. I don’t expect much from a budget hostel but a lock on the bedroom door and clean sheets which don’t smell are something I do require. We were told the doors don’t need locks as the there is 24 hour security, however, I don’t really think someone asleep on a sofa can be classed as as security. Air con also very weak. 1 plug socket per room. Lockers too small to fit large backpacks so if locking your belongings is important I would not recommend.

  Okay Hostel

  10 Dec 2018

  Cheap hostel. Nice People in the reception. Loud music during the day which was annoying. The kitchen was filthy with ants, rats and cockroaches all over. No proper tools or cleaning equipment to use after you made your food. The placement of the hostel is perfect. 5 min to the beach and 5 min to Sky Garden

  Hostel was fun and close to everything!

  The hostel is kind of hard to find if you are in an Uber I suggest taking a motorbike or getting dropped off in an Uber a couple streets away then walking. Dorms were alright they track dirt in every easily. The bed is a bed can’t expect much from a hostel. It does it’s job. The bathrooms were outside so they aren’t sanitary but then again they do the job. The 4 or 8 bed dorms have their own bathrooms I made friends easily enough where I could use theirs! It’s a hostel guys you can’t be too picky. In the first five minutes of arriving in the hostel as a solo female traveler I met my first friend. This was one thing I was worried about with my first solo trip. The receptionist were alright kind of had an attitude but didn’t mind them. The infamous sky garden club was only a walking distance away. Breakfast/lunch/dinner available just around the corner and street shopping nearby! Only rated this five starts because I can honestly say I have met some of my best friends here. We were all inseparable. My second day I was on the back of a motorbike with other solo travelers on our way to Ubud. The staff doesn’t really do a good job of setting any activities up so it’s up to you to you but it’s easy if you are open to everyone. We needed up staying here on our way back from Gili T for a couple nights. Some advice. Don’t swim in the pool drunk with your mates past curfew because the guard will probably kick you out or at least stay quiet so you don’t get caught (;

  Great hostel in an ideal location.

  Captain goose is one of the best hostels i have stayed at in Kuta. Excellent price, 70k per night. Free pancakes throughout the day. Facilities to cook some other stuff too - frying pan/hobs available to fry some other food you may buy like eggs. Rooms and property is regularly cleaned and the beds are made each day. Wifi available but not amazing. Cheap beer and a nice pool to chill around and socialise. Good atmosphere and social vibe also.Staff are great, special shoutout to Mila. Great staff member who makes guests feel welcome and creates a good atmosphere.Only bad point is the mattresses, nice mattress and it’d be great. But you get use to it if you are staying for a few nights.Would return and recommend.
