Built entirely from local wood, the bungalows exude a homey and adventurous vibe. The experience is intentionally minimalistic, focusing on essential comforts rather than luxury. Each bungalow features a bed on or close to the floor, equipped with a fan and mosquito nets, ensuring a restful night's sleep. Despite being modest, the accommodations are well-maintained and exude cleanliness and care. Some bungalows come with private bathrooms and small refrigerators, adding a touch of convenience.

Beds
Travelers seeking a unique blend of rustic charm and modern comfort may find Easylife Bungalow an intriguing option, but should be prepared for varied experiences with the mattresses. Several guests have highlighted the firmness of the beds, describing them as exceptionally hard, with comparisons ranging from sleeping on concrete to resting on a wooden floor. This might be an appealing feature for those who appreciate solid support during sleep, but it could be less enjoyable for those preferring softer accommodations.
A few guests also noted the presence of tiny ants on the mattress, which may affect the overall comfort and cleanliness experience. Despite this, one reviewer found their bed to be comfortable, indicating that there might be variability among different rooms or units in the hotel. This suggests potential improvements in some of the accommodations while maintaining the distinct, natural setting that characterizes Easylife Bungalow. Travelers who can embrace this level of rustic hospitality may find the experience satisfying.

However, there are notable concerns—some guests report hygiene issues such as unwashed sheets, an accumulation of wood from mites, and an unclean hammock. The presence of bedbugs and mice further complicates the experience. Essential items like toilet paper and towels are sometimes absent, and there are occasional maintenance quirks, like bathroom lights activated by plugging in the socket. While many appreciate the general cleanliness, others highlight significant shortcomings that could affect overall comfort.
