The view is good, the cabin is also clean, the staff is helpful and friendly.Staying in a delux twin, suddenly you get a hotel rate of 1.1. Can bring anabul, add 200k.Disadvantages:1. Can't sleep because the sound in the cabin next door can be heard in the room. Maybe you can give information to the customer or notify the guest in the room so it doesn't disturb other guests too much2. The breakfast menu is lacking, apart from not being varied, I'm sorry it's also lacking.3. Guests can smoke in the breakfast area (sorry but this disturbs other guests)At the back of the cabin there is an insect net, although some insects got in, it was still quite comfortable. :)

I've stayed here twice, but yesterday it was a bit disturbed by the 2 rooms next door who were praying at night (singing) with too loud voices, so it made it difficult for me to sleep.

Suitable for looking for a calm and cool atmosphere. It's a shame that when I went there next to the room I brought a dog. Barks almost all the time. So very disturbed. Please consider the rules for bringing animals.

The service is great, all the employees are friendly.. the rooms are clean, the bathroom is clean.. the grill package is complete with lots of contents, very filling, the food is all delicious.. but unfortunately there was a little added at night when we were grilling, the portable stove was a bit problematic.. the gas ran out quickly, I think. the stove was a problem but the power supply was really good, we even replaced it 3 times, the gas was free... thank you very much sis... overall I like it here, no minuses... for those who want to book, you have to book well in advance, especially for the suite, you have to do it 2 weeks in advance if you can, even earlier 🤣 because We were planning to take the suite when it was full, so we ended up taking the deluxe (but the deluxe is also good).. will want to come here again next time, bring friends or family 🥰🥰

Glamping at an altitude of +-1300 meters above sea level on the eastern slopes of Mount Merbabu. Road access to the location is quite challenging. The road is good but narrow so you have to take turns with cars in the opposite direction. Ample parking, friendly service. Check in time is 14.00 noon. Planned early check in at 12 but was charged IDR 150k even though there were no guests. Occupancy will be busy on weekends. There are 3 super delux units (jakuzi) and 12 delux units. The design of the room unit resembles a tent, clean and comfortable, especially the balcony, which is the most favorite place to hang out, with a view of the cool green valley, also visible to Mount Merapi and the peak of Merbabu. The air temperature is cold around 13°-22° , fog falls at night. The room design has gaps on the right and left walls so that cold air enters the room. To reduce the cold, I covered the gaps with a towel. There is a bonfire that will be lit at night, and will become a sunrise point for taking sunrise photos at around 05.30 in the morning. The food at the restaurant includes oxtail soup, godok/fried noodles, pasta, burgers, snacks, and various wedang drinks, espresso based coffee and manual brew. The food is quite delicious. Activities that can be done there are trekking to Sempuran waterfall and Tampuhan waterfall. Recommended glamping with family and friends.
