Very disappointing. Not recommended |We arrived around 20.00 tired after a long day of travel. |From the bus station it was 12km so we had to pay for a taxi to take us there ( that was quite expensive) when we arrived they said that they didn’t have any double rooms available (the ones we booked) just 2 bunk beds!!! The price would be the same... ( they also offered to give us the money back but at that time in the night far away from the city we didn’t have where to go plus would be even more expensive to pick up another taxi) |We booked an independent accommodation (deluxe double room) WE GOT 2 bunk beds in a ‘room’ without a door, privacy, or isolation. It was noisy, cold and very bright because part the ‘walls’ was made of translucent plastic panels. |Not acceptable, if I wanted to stay in a bunk bed with this conditions I would book it myself for a much lower price and in the city center. Choose another place to stay....

The owner and manager were very friendly and helpful and helped us book things when we needed. Good simple breakfast and relatively cheap. This is the go-to place for...
Read moreGreat little bungalow to stay when arriving in Malang. Free water refill, coffee and tea. Breakfast was included which was fried rice with an egg. Dinner was 25,000- fried rice, noodles, soup. Big beer was 50,000. The family there was really sweet ! On the first night they invited us to eat in their house because they were having a celebration. Also there was a really cute puppy to play with as well as chickens and rabbits. It is a little loud in the morning as it is right on the street and the rooster is loud. WiFi is poor. Scooter rental for 75,000 or 100 for the...
