M Hostel

Such a social hostel. As a solo traveller I had the absolute best time. I felt included in everything, the snorkelling trip snd sunset boat I couldn’t recommend more. I loved that the dorms were for only 3 people. If you like partying and making friends go to M box. Shout out to all the staff but especially brandon, idris, tiger and icky who made my time 10/10

Avoid at all costs. Definitely not a party hostel at all, the whole time we were there we saw maybe 5 people total, very strange atmosphere about the place. The music is terrible and same songs on repeat. The photos on Hostelworld do not represent the place at all, the decor is dark and dingy like a haunted house. We booked a female only corridor but we were put in with multiple men which was frustrating and scary. The free food advertised is just rice and vegetables. Cutlery was dirty. Capsules were dirty, my friends aircon didn’t work at all and neither did any of our safety deposit boxes. The location isn’t good at all to get to bars etc. The hallways have a weird smell of stale alcohol, and my other friend had blood on the wall of her capsule. The pool looked filthy so we didn’t even attempt it. While we were booked in for 3 nights, on the first night we were sat in the common area discussing booking another place to go, when a huge rat scuttled right past us and into the pool area, which just topped the whole thing off really. We were too on edge to go to sleep so ended up all sat in one capsule awake for the whole night while we sorted out other accommodation. Not a place to meet people at all and does not feel safe for young female backpackers.

The rooms are small but nice, clean, the staff is very helpful, I liked it very much. The location is very good. Thank you. MBOX

Great location! Nice and close to the supermarket and shopping. Rooms are great and bar has great options for drinks. Felt very safe staying here

Do NOT stay at this hostel!
My friend and I arrived, everything seemed to be fine and we checked into a private cabin each. But then, when we went out for breakfast one day, and came back 1,5 hours later, our rooms were broken into to. All our things were taken out of our bags, everything was placed differently, and we were missing stuff for around 400 USD. We immediately contacted the staff, but they just rejected everything. Then we spoke to the boss, who told us that it could only be the staff members, because they’re the only ones having access to all of the rooms. We felt so uncomfortable, imagine the staff members stealing from you in your private LOCKED room. The boss then promised us, that he would give us something that could cover a bit of the stolen stuff, but then he stopped answering us and then he deleted our booking in Hostelworld so we couldn’t even leave a review - before that he also asked us several times not to leave a review because it would destroy his business. But after all this, we had had enough! So I contacted Hostelworld, so we could write this review to avoid other people coming to their hostel.

We were unfortunately not given anything to cover the stolen amount, actually not even a refund for the stay there.
We’re really disappointed and shocked, and we will definitely NOT RECOMMEND STAYING THERE!

I stayed here on January 2019 for a week. Love this hostel so much. Very well maintained, modern and clean. The cafeteria also spacious, I met a lot of new friends here. Beautiful hostel, beautiful memories.

Strategic place, good pods, great ambient, get self-service breakfast with 2 or 3 options, staff really helpfull.

Okay so this place is a little expensive as compared to the other hostels in / around the areas! Sleeping pods are one of the best I have seen in a while
Pro
Good & cheap foood - around 50k each meal cost
Beds and pillow are super comfy
Billiards to play is free

Cons -
Toilets are small but clean
Common showers are small

Good place to stay.
They open with New Brand New Name called M BOX SEMINYAK Hostel. New style too

Sedikit berisik tapi yah maklum namanya juga hostel. Kita suka sama konsepnya yang sederhana tapi bikin betah. Deket ke mana mana. Buat cewek cewek kayak kita, aman dech. Sedikit masukan saja, kamarnya agak berdebu plus lantai kamar mandinya agak licin tapi ga begitu ganggu kok. Sukses terus yach M Hostel!

Nice, this place like my home. Good stuff, to much friendly and helpful. A swimming pull, a farmacy, a hospital and a nice place for stay hare.osam, everything is good

I stayed here for few days but staffs are very rude because I'm BEAUTIFUL Korean cosmetic model? I'm better than them? The worst one is fat ugly women she talked about sex too much most importantly one guy staff tried to touch me wtf I don't wanna judge people but they are the worst I'd ever met

Everything is improvised. The breakfast is literally the worst I've ever seen in my whole life.

Worse hostel I have been two in the last years. The staff is incompetent and unfriendly. I booked a private room. For 290.000IDR there are much better rooms available. The bathrooms are not clean and old. A twin bedroom means that you have one normal bed and one small ground bed to push it out under the normal bed.
Absolutely inaceptable. I will never come back and cannot recommend it for anyone.

It was OK, no bunkbeds which is nice and big storage area for bags. Good cheap food. Pool is more a footbath hehe. They book tours etc. In the shopping heavy area of Seminyak.

Good price, location and crew!
Best option for backpackers or people who want to save budget.

Great and lovely staff! Always helpful. Clean rooms and bathrooms. 6 beds per room, so not too crowded and the beds are actually comfortable. Would be nice if curtains were added. Nice living area. Would totally recommend!

Breakfast is simple (toast and vegetable soups - but gets the job done). The bathrooms are cleaned regularly, but are a bit tattered and could do with renovating.
The staff were amazing and very helpful, especially the younger ones. It was simple to do most things because of this. Towels and linen provided. Pool table and TV lounge with wide range of movies - all for free. Fast wifi. Central location and great tourism information! Scooters available for rent at reception.

Needs improvement.more secure lockers, more comfy beds, more menu items in the cafe, in suit bathroom needs updating and daily cleaning. Power outlets by bed need to be installed. If you are looking for a budget place with great customer service this is a good choice.
