The hotel offers affordable lodging, allowing guests to unwind and rejuvenate after a tiring journey. The staff members were exceptionally friendly and accommodating, adding to the overall experience. We opted for stayed in deluxe rooms with an attic area where we preferred to relax. Both the attics and the rooms are airconditioned, making it an ideal choice for short and planned city tours. Additionally, the breakfast offered is included with the very low booking fee, featuring coffee and bread.

The location is good for travelers and the facilities are clean and well renovated! We spent a night here with my friends. The price is cheap! However, the wifi is slow, but not too bad. Anyway, staff very friendly! Recommended for those who want to stay at backpackers.

Menghabiskan dua malam di sini bersama teman-teman. Kamarnya bersih, ada berbagai jenis kamar, tapi tekanan airnya agak rendah, jadi bawa perlengkapan mandi sendiri. Lokasinya sangat strategis, dekat dengan pusat perbelanjaan dan bahkan pergi ke pulau.

I had a good time here, the staff was friendly, and the location was in the center of the city. Good value for money, air conditioning provided, clean amenities. The decor is generally basic, but that is to be expected. Will definitely recommend.

Our rooms were clean and all equipment in them worked. The staff was friendly. There is a restaurant very close where live music is played every night up until 23-24 so take this into consideration if you are an early sleeper.

4.6/520 Mar 2023

The friendliness of the employees was the only positive aspect of this establishment.

4.6/512 Mar 2023

The staff was helpful and friendly. The breakfast was simple, the decoration was made of wood and the environment made us relaxed. When we visit more tourist places, they offer suggestions and discounts. There are areas that need improvement, such as the wifi connection and shower power.
