The most unique hotel rooms in Jogja!The Malay cultural museum concept is applied to hotel services. Even though it is quite far from the city center, the environment is very calm and next to it there is a mosque as well as an Al-Qur'an tahfidz Islamic boarding school under the auspices of the same foundation.

The manager wrote down our reservation wrong (we made it online almost a month in advance because we knew that the dates we were going were very busy) and when we arrived they told us that they didn't have it reserved for us that night and that the hotel was full. Not only did it take them almost an hour to resolve the problem, but since all the hotels in the area were also full, they asked us to find a solution. Totally inefficient. In the end, they ended up giving us a room within the same hotel, larger than what we had reserved. That should have been the first option to fix your error.We didn't like breakfast because it was only a local food option (meat, rice and fried things). We had to ask him if he had bread to make toast so we could start the day with something in our stomach. Half a point in favor: the receptionist on the second morning left us bread with two hard-boiled eggs.The bathrooms leak water everywhere (in both rooms).Some windows that couldn't be closed had no screen, so the room was full of mosquitoes.

For its cheap price, including luxurious. There are bathtub facilities too. The breakfast is also "serious", a package of Laotian fried chicken like that from other restaurants. Some spots don't smell good, like in the back room. At night it's a bit creepy because the lights aren't bright enough.Then there are 2 AC facilities, only 1 can be turned on, which for a room that size is VERY LESS with an AC that is only 1/2PK. So it was hot all night.
