    As stated above there is no real connection with the staff. The bed as a mattress on a higher floor isn't that convenient.

    They are a really good hotel for families with children. For me as a solo traveller it was a nicely designed hotel with a small average breakfast and staff that does what it needs to do, but you don't feel a real connection with them. It's a good location for Kota Lama and on short walking distance from the train station.

    Nasi Goreng special, is far below standard in Indonesia. the Nasi is totally soft. Overall breakfast menu is fine.

    Have been in this Hotel the 3rd time. Allways for 1-2 nights. Location is nice in the old town. Considering the price, what you get is fine. Check in, check out. Room is ok, for a short stay, but maybe rather for a city trip than for business.

    Nothing really. Great stay.

    Right in the old town location (Kota Lama) was brilliant for exploring, eating and photography. Very modern ‘cool’ hotel, but with solid design and amenities. Excellent room. Not too far from main station. Very helpful lobby and hospitality staff.

    Stayed one night on transit and liked the place so much I went back on my return journey. Rooms were clean, beds were very comfortable and facilities were good and worked with no issues. Staff were very friendly, and location is exceptionally good, particularly if traveling via train from Tawang. Breakfast was possibly the best hotel breakfast I've ever seen, with two a la carte options and a side buffet.

    The double room was fine for one night but was quite small. For a longer stay, I’d book one of the larger rooms.

    The hotel has a very youthful vibe but we felt welcome & comfortable (in our 60s!). The room we chose was quite small but comfortable & well designed. The hotel is slap-bang in the middle of the old Kota Lama area. We had a view of the Blenduk church. If I was staying more than one night, I’d opt for the larger room. The breakfast offered is very good: you can choose something from the a la carte menu (both Indonesian & Western) plus there is self serve coffee, tea, juice, fruit, cereals, toast & rice porridge. It was all really good. There are restaurants close by. We loved Maishin Isakaya & would have eaten there more than once if we’d been here longer. An early walk to the bustling street market in the Chinatown area (Kauman) is fun. The hotel is also in easy walking distance to the train station.!

    Suggestion: mattress needs to be rotated regularly to avoid uneven dip and sag. Perhaps need firmer mattress too.

    Great location, good and friendly service, good breakfast, and stylish hotel.

    Our shower was slow to drain but that’s the only thing we encountered which wasn’t great!

    The property was a really great find. A perfect location in the heart of the old town and surrounded by amazing places to eat and sights to see. We loved the concept of the hotel with its laid back, practical approach to a city stay. The staff were very welcoming and the breakfast we had there was also absolutely superb. We just wish there were more of these hotels around!

    - The sheets were washed and clean but contained some old stains. - The staff is really nice and friendly but comes across as insecure or with lack of experience.

    Location is amazing! Hotel is modern, breakfast was nice and room was clean. The bed was also very comfy.

    The room was damp and I could smell the sink. My room was right above a street where kids were hanging out rather loudly until at least 2 am.

    The staff was so amazing and helped me with everything. They even picked me up from the train station, which was in walking distance, but I had a heavy piece of luggage and they helped me with it. There were healthy options for breakfast which I appreciated.
