Der Gastgeber ist sehr freundlich und gut in Schach und Dominos. Die Unterkunft ist zwar simpel, hat aber alles was es braucht und ist sauber gehalten. Der Pool hat eine tolle Aussicht über Felder und man ist nah am Strand.
Das Gemeinschaftsbad ist ein wenig heruntergekommen, hat aber alles was man braucht und für den Preis total okay.

Bruyant, triste, sale et mal équipée

Der Besitzer Kadek hat uns bei allen Angelegenheiten rund ums Buchen von Aktivitäten bis hin zum Besorgen von einheimischem Essen überall wunderbar unterstützt. Er hat sogar sein Essen mit uns geteilt und uns um 22 Uhr in der Nacht noch zu einem Essensstand gebracht. Bei kurzen Strecken hat er uns sogar kostenlos gefahren. Das Frühstück war nicht groß, aber absolut ausreichend und gut.
Wie erwartet bei dem niedrigen Preis gab es einige Insekten wie Kakerlaken im Bad. So etwas muss man bei dem Preis allerdings in Kauf nehmen.

If you are going to fuss about everything don’t book it.
Apollo hostel is a special place just for survivors.
Internet is good.
No air con.
Just fan, maybe you get two!
Empty swimming pool which it is amazing thinking that you could have a bath after a long day walking.
Apollo nights are different! You get involved with people playing domino and if you are lucky someone can play a guitar. There’s a cajón flamenco which i used it and we had a little concert.
Tbh it’s a special place. If you book it go with no standards and you will really enjoy the energy of Apollo Hostel!

INGENTING DET VA DET VÄRSTA JAG VARIT MED OM!!
Det var kryp ÖVERALLT. Sängarna var äckliga. Köket var det vidrigaste jag någonsin sett. Inget vatten i poolen. Toaletterna var under all kritik, hade aldrig använt de frivilllgt. VÄLJ ALDRIG DETTA BOENDE!!

Great attention to your needs and very helpful about arranging tours or simply making your stay an enjoyable experience. Good location close to many amenities, and the beach is a short walk away.
The pool was empty...the owner could spend less time playing chess....and focus more on getting the pool in proper order. That would add a super addition to the space. Nomads would love it! Grow flowers at the entrance...add brighter colors to the grey zones. Invite a talking parrot to take up residence 😉 Teach it Italian and Inuktitut words.

Ayu (une des employees) est vraiment adorable, on a joué aux dominos toute la soirée!
C'est un hostel à 2 euros donc faut pas s'attendre au grand luxe non plus. C'est sale, les lits en dortoir sont minuscules et il fait très très très chaud dans les chambres. Mais c'est ce que ça vaut.
La piscine est vide depuis longtemps mais sur les photos on dirait qu'elle fonctionne encore.
Ne réservez pas la sortie plancton de nuit, c'est une arnaque, il n'y a pas de plancton on ne voit rien du tout et le gérant nous emmene juste sur la plage principale.

La proximité avec la plage et la gentillesse de l’hôtesse présente.
Aucune aération dans les chambres, chaleur insoutenable qui rend le sommeil très compliqué. Le matelas était un bout de mousse, l’oreiller aussi. Un oreiller taille dans un bout de mousse carré… la jolie piscine présente sur les photos était vide. L’eau de la salle de bain sentait mauvais, lunette de toilette jaune/noire. Nous avons eu que peu d’échanges avec l’hôte. Il a essentiellement voulu nous vendre un excursion avec lés dauphins, presque 3 fois. Il a semblé un peu gonflé quand nous avons demande de l’aide avec le ventilateur. Début des travaux au marteau à 8h. Quand bien même nous étions réveillés bonjour la relaxation.. Mettez quelques euros de plus pour vous offrir une nuit correcte. Le prix ne justifie pas la négligence.

Absolument rien, mis a part qu’ils offrent l’activité avec les dauphins et le snorkeling pour un prix raisonnable!
Tout! D’abord, l’auberge était vraiment sale, principalement la salle de bain avec de gros insectes sur le robinet et sur les murs, il n’avait pas de savon à main en plus. Les dortoirs et chambres n’étaient pas propre non plus, plusieurs lézards sur les murs et des toiles d’araignées sur le plafond. Le propriétaire et la responsable n’ont pas l’air de s’en faire avec ça, ils sont toujours sur le téléphone et ne dorment pas à l’auberge, alors difficile d’avoir un service en direct. J’ai eu l’impression de déranger la fille à chaque fois que je lui posais une question. J’ai reçu un déjeuner pas frais, qui semblait traîner depuis longtemps sur le comptoir du lobby.
Et oui, quoi dire des photos sur Booking qui ne représentent AUCUNEMENT l’auberge. La piscine n’est pas ouverte depuis longtemps (des commentaires du mois de juillet disaient ça aussi), très dommage car c’était l’une de nos motivations. Il n’avait personne dans l’auberge, alors si vous souhaitez faire la fête, n’allez pas là. Les images ne reflètent aucunement la réalité, on dirait un immeuble abandonné, encore une fois le propriétaire n’a pas l’air de s’en faire. Très frustrant. Il fait très très chaud dans les chambres et il y a peu de ventilateurs qui fonctionnent, en fait ceux qui fonctionne sont très sale. Bref, c’est la pire place où on a dormi dans notre vie.

No hay piscina, todo estaba muy sucio, cucarachas por todos lados, no hay wifi, el agua de la ducha y el baño sabían a óxido (supongo que el tanque donde se mantiene el agua estará oxidado), la almohada era un trozo de espuma incomodisima al igual que el colchón, si vas a tomar el desayuno cuidado porque la cocina está asquerosa, en mi habitación no había puertas (me separaba una cortina de una zona donde habían animales), los ventiladores no funcionaban por lo que el calor era insoportable, ... Todo ello se lo comenté al propietario (ya que no me podía quedar en estas condiciones todos los días que reservé y su contestación fue que lo sentía mucho por todo pero no tenían dinero para arreglar nada desde el Covid). Creo que es mejor dormir en un parque o en la playa ya que las condiciones mínimas de higiene se cumplirán.
Me gustaría poder añadir más fotos pero no puedo ya que solo me dejan añadir 4 fotos. Creo que booking.com debería de tener un filtro sobre que alojamientos se anuncian en su página, nunca pensé que algo así se permitiese alquilar. Mi consejo al propietario es que actualice las fotos del estado en el que se encuentra su alojamiento, pero "su excusa" no puedo cambiarlo en la página cosa que no es cierta.

Good hostel to stay one or two nights considering the price. Don't expect a lot though. I got a private room as it was only slightly more expensive, but next time I would choose the shared rooms that looked much better and more comfortable. The staff is social and encourages others to socialise with a bit of playing dominos and drinking rice wine.
The shared facilities were good enough clean, but just old looking and not the best. While taking a shower, a cockroach joined me on the wall, but then again, it's the tropics so don't be too scared of that. The back (pool) area looked a bit useless. Even if there would be a drying rack or something else would be better than now.

The shower water smelled like ocean water and the toilet didn't have water to wash after doing the business. I had to use tissue, that works for Western people, but for me as an Asian, I would have appreciated it if there was a water pipe.

What a great hostel and people! I had such a great stay and met some amazing people! Location is amazing (pure center of Lovina), price is affordable and the staff is the best! Huge thanks to Ayu for helping me with everything possible during my stay! 🥰 The owner is also really kind and chilled person! The hostel vibe and like minded travelers makes you stay longer than expected which was my case. I highly recommend this hostel and I will come here for sure if I visit Northern Bali again! Terima Kasih! ☺️

The owner is an amazing dude. Type of guy that'll give you his shirt off his back. Offered great prices for tours and such. The domino games and guitar in the evenings were fun.
Beds were really basic and I'm tall so I, personally had a hard time getting comfortable. Otherwise a very efficient place.

The Apollo Hostel has two idyllic outdoor areas. The outdoor area behind the house even has a direct view of the mountains and a rice field. Here you can perfectly unwind. The beach is only a 7 minute walk away. I would love to come back!

Very honest and lovely hostel owner. If you're up to do any trips/activities in Lovina you should definitely book them here. He will always give you the very best price in whole lovina, guaranteed!

The location is good very close to the beach and restaurants. It was easy to get to and go wherever I wanted near shops and stuff
The fan was very small and made the room very stuffy.
It gave off prison vibes massively the decor was dated and was more like a hut than a hotel.
The shower light was very dim and the lock on the toilet was very bad. There were also lots of creature in the shower from cockroaches to spiders to centipedes did not feel comfortable showing especially not with shoes on
The host will try get as much money out of you as possible. Do not do trips with him he didn’t arrange good ones just with his friends boat who is really bad. He will guilt trip you into going on trip and be upset when you tell him no so just bare in mind when first telling him what you want to do.
I had to wait almost two hours for check in despite telling him when I would be there and messaging him when I arrived
