Absolutely nothing!

I couldn’t ask for a better place to stay in Solo. The room had A/C, clean sheets and kind staff. Suprapto in particular was amazing. He gave me great recommendations of things to see and eat in Solo. He also organised my onward transport and even giving me a lift to the bus station. He was very kind and helped me so much. Wouldn’t hesitate in a second to come back!

The manager and the staff were very accommodating. Their treatment of hotel guests were very special. I extended for another 3 days and they let me use the Deluxe room. I was even treated for a Filipino lunch by the manager. The best so far on my journey.

Maybe Wi-fii connection could be better but for using just Whatsapp, social network and basic stuff is enough

I booked the night before without any special expectations. The hotel is nice, but the staff are really helpful even though they don’t speak English. I moved room on the first day because there is a more comfortable room downstairs and brought breakfast every morning. To make the stay wonderful was Suprapto, who often shares his precious time with guests. We went out to dinner and had a great coffee. Thanks to him I will always bring a wonderful memory of this city!

We have been travelling around Indonesia for one month and this has been the best place where we stayed! Absolutely amazing, clean, comfortable, great position, free coffe and tea. The room was perfect but the highlight of our stay here was our dinner with Suprapto. We really appreciated that he took his time to take us to eat at a local place. After that he showed us around the city before driving us back to the guest house. Thanks to Suprapto’s kindness and to the beauty of the room and the guesthouse, we spent two wonderful days in Solo. One hundred percent recommend staying here!!! We will definitely come back here on our next trip to Solo.

Very welcoming staff, allowed us to check-in early. Suprapto, the off-duty manager, still contacted us and arranged to transport us anywhere around Solo on his day off. This act of kindness was greatly appreciated, and helped to maximise our limited experience in Solo. The place was spotlessly clean and the staff were very efficient and professional when there was a huge thunderstorm, quickly covering and cleaning wet areas. The snacks for breakfast were also a pleasant surprise. Even the nearby mosque was a pleasant wake-up call - certainly more melodic than elsewhere! Musafir Guest House is a paragon of how to provide clean, good-value, hospitable accommodation for all travellers by doing some of the simple stuff exceptionally well.

Very strategic location. Good value for money. If you travel to Solo for food or culinary activities, I recommend you to stay here. U may drive only 5-10 minutes to get to any legendary foods in town.

Lovely place with great facilities eg small kitchen area and lounge area if you wanted to use. Bed was comfy though shower water pressure was limited. Great location for the city and would stay again on my next visit.

Only backdraw, that there is a mosque literally next door giving you an early wake. Earplug is a must for non-muslims.

Nice staff, perfect place with shared kitchen and water dispencer.

Lovely guest house in the middle of Solo, great location to see the city and a very comfortable and quiet hotel. The staff were also so friendly and helpful throughout especially the owner who was kind enough to show me around the city and take me for some amazing food and drinks. Would definitely recommend to anyone visiting Surakarta, thanks again!

The AC was slow to work, but it’s a minor detail.

Excellent value for the cost. The room was spacious, the facilities were great, and the staff was warm and welcoming. They even provided some breakfast snacks a couple mornings of my stay. A huge bonus was being shown around town by one of the managers. He brought me to local food spots, a Batik art workshop and museum, and provided so much valuable insight to life in Solo. I’m super grateful the guest house offers this service, as it was certainly a highlight of my time in Indonesia! I wish Suprapto and the staff all the best; this was a lovely stay, and I’m grateful for the experience!

Can't think of anything.

Can't say enough good things about my stay here. Room was very clean and there was a nice kitchen available to use. Most importantly the staff were incredibly friendly. If you're lucky, the manager Prapto will be available to show you around a bit. Was one of the highlights of my trip through Java.

Shower hot water was rather unstable; staff weren't so helpful; no tooth paste and tooth brushes; no garden view as written in room description.

Sparkly clean. A spacious standard double room on the upper floor with a very comfortable double bed, a quiet AC and a wardrobe with hangers, two wooden safes (with keys). On the upper floor there's a hot/cold water dispenser with free coffee/tea bags and sugar. On the ground floor there are shared dining rooms and a shared kitchen. Sparkly clean private bathroom with a hot water shower, a sink, a Western style toilet, two comfortable towels, bottled shampoo, body soap and hand soap. Free traditional snacks. Spacious parking lot for motorbikes and cars. Very good TV reception (free channels) and free WiFi. A nice sunset view from the rooftop.

Suprapto is such a sweet man who knows everything about Solo and will be happy to help you in anyway he can. We had such a good stay here that we booked an extra night. Would recommend!

I honestly really feel sorry for this rating but i have to give it a 4 to make, hopefully, an impact. As it was literally disappointing :( The staff entered my room without my consent or prior notice they would. Nor was their any emergency or maintenance that would justify such an act. I feel deeply disturbed by the fact that someone entered my private space without my consent, seeing my personal belongings, my private journal (which was open on my table). The door was locked twice!! Even though the intention, the staff brought some morning snack, were admirable. It still does not justify invading the private space of your guest. It made me feel extremely uncomfortable afterward. I wish this review to be seen as a constructive criticism and i hope the host and their team will revise their approach in how they treat their guest privacy! Its a really good place to stay in after all!

Comfortable Bed and spacious Room Clean Bathroom Friendly Staff Quiet Room Quite good Wifi! So why only 4? It could have been an 8 :(
