Our room was large, with hot water. It was at the bottom of the hotel but that allowed us not to have too much noise (even if we had to get up at 2 a.m.). Breakfast is a buffet which was satisfying

Beware bedbugs.We stayed here for one (half really) night to visit mount bromo. This hostel was booked as part of a tour. Regardless there is little choice for good hotels in cemorolewang, as other reviews may say, it seems the hotels all know guests are only staying for a few hours and so there is little incentive to provide quality accommodation.The pros:- shower was hot- close to bromo- close to other restaurants- toiletries providedCons:- bugs, spiders and cockroaches in the rooms and around the hostel generally- no heating so cold at night - pack warm night clothes- towels were dirty- the first room we were given, we found bed bugs in the sheets. We went to reception, they didn’t seem to really understand but offered us a twin room which we accepted. (Later we saw other guests using this room and I doubt the bed would have been sufficiently cleaned by then.) Upon checking the beds, we saw signs of bed bugs in one of the twin beds and the other looked ok. Being so tired already we took the room and slept in one twin bed as it was only 3 hours sleep.Other issues I have heard of in these hotels (cold water, dirty rooms, loud noise) may be forgivable for a single night but with bed bugs there is a big risk to travellers so I cannot recommend this particular hostel. It was not a comfortable stay. We are leaving with great memories of bromo but also all the clothes we slept in in a separate bag in case we caught bed bugs which is not a worry anyone wants to have.

It met our expectations, it is old and not very clean but we expected it from a hostel in the mountains. We had a good stay, breakfast was quite good!

Apart from the location which is right next to the Bromo Volcano, the hotel does not offer anything good.It’s old but if only it was well maintained…The rooms and common rooms are VERY DIRTY and damp. There were cobwebs and mold everywhere. It's very, very, very dirty.The buffet breakfast is unsatisfactory.Basically, an establishment to avoid.

This hostel is perfect for visiting Bromo. It is very close by car. It is a very spacious hostel, with a large and fairly decent restaurant and in general very clean and well maintained. The room would be perfect if it had heating, because it's quite cold in the area, but it's true that the bedding is very warm (and the bed is very comfortable). The shower is very simple.

Very very dirty hostel, little electricity and cold, feeling of abandoned. The service is very average, contrary to our experience in Indonesia, they are not friendly. Very well located, which is the best thing about it. In short, nothing recommended. Very basic food. I would not repeat under any circumstances

It seems to be located higher up the mountain than many hotels and hostels, so I think it's convenient (close) to access early morning promotions. …
