We really loved the location of this hotel—it’s super close to borobudur temple but also next to some fields and local neighborhoods. It is a good mix of rural and city vibes. We loved the pool as it was very clean and a good size. …

Beautifully laid out hotel. Close to Borobudur temple. There was no possibility to have dinner there. That was possible at a restaurant nearby! Enjoy a drink by the pool at the end of the day. Breakfast was well arranged and very tasty!

The place is not big, the atmosphere is comfortable. It's just that I don't like the concept of a bathroom + toilet that is half open and has a refrigerator in it. I don't think it's a good idea. The wardrobe is also in the toilet.

Strategic position around Borobudur temple, the pool is relatively large, the service is good and friendly minus there is a smelly bathroom and the size of the TV in the room is not suitable for such a big room, please improve it further
