This hostel was really nice, from the reception to the room to the breakfast , all very nice. I stayed for 5 nights , the first couple nights I stayed in the deluxe room and the last 3 in a standard double. I had planned on hotel hopping around the island but Gili Buana was so relaxed I was happy to stay put. As A solo traveler I felt very welcome. Aisje the manager was an amazing hostess, she invited me for sunset and dinner a couple nights which was lovely. I highly recommend this hostel.

It was a great experience staying at Gili Buana. The host was friendly and helpful. Situated in the middle of the harden it was a quiet place to rest. Commuting to the rest of the island is easy by bike or on foot. Beaches can be reached within 10 mins walking. Room was clean and the veggie nasi goreng breakfast was great!
