    The rooms were basic but okay. Beds were quite comfortabel and the shower was warm. The staff were really nice and were staying up late to drink some beers and play some music. The backpackers feeling was really nice and it was the perfect place to meet new people in Yogyakarta. The pool was also a nice addition.

    Cheap hostel, near the train station, with good confortable beds. The room and the toilets are clean. The owner Laura is really nice, she knows a lot about what to do in the city and for your next destinations. She also did a book you can find in the communal area, with all the informations. A plus are the included breakfats and dinner, if you are not too complicated to eat what you get. There are good vibes with a lot of people there in the evening to spend time. Free qater and tea and coffee. For some nights is a good place to stay
