Room extremely basic, a bit dusty. Couldn't really say it was cleaned recently.

The building is very nice and quite new with a great potential. Location convenient for Bromo Jeep tour. We have been very lucky to be arranged, by the property management, for the bromo jeep tour with a very friendly and honest driver, Heri, who made our day for a reasonable price. Thank you Heri!

The hospitality is top notch. Thank you Pak Heri, Bu Heri n Pak Slamet for assisting, helping us during the stay. Hot shower is available. The place has kitchen facility to cook noodles, make hot drinks.., and location is near to Pasar Tosari - a number of food stall available..

Hot shower worked but then didn’t. Was quickly fixed by the staff but stopped working again

Clean and comfortable stay, quiet and peaceful scenery. Good location to go up to King Kong Hill in the morning as we didn’t have to cross the sea of sands on our dirt bikes (as opposed to staying in Probolinggo). Short ride up approx 30 mins in the morning.

Water heater was not consistent. But the staff was prompt to attend to our needs. Table was also too small.

Strategic location, very near to shops and local eateries. This place has breathtaking view of the mountain & hills. We enjoyed evening walks down to the eateries area. The owner of this place (Pak Heri) was very friendly and did his best to accommodate our needs. He arranged a Mt Bromo tour for us (it was great!). Pak Selamat, his staff was very prompt to our needs. Will definitely return to this place with family and friends.

The tuneless child whose voice broke with the dawn each morning!!!

The village was incredibly friendly even if the competing mosques were a little too enthusiastic with their call to prayer starting at 4am and continuing throughout the day. Sometimes it was beautiful at others irritating and tuneless. But we were visiting Java so hey - and we were up so early it hardly mattered. Harry, the manager, was brilliant. He was so helpful and made us free tea and coffee. He also gave us a great Bromo tour at a really good price. He also sings very well if you ask him and is a truly nice guy

The hotel is very basic. Be sure to arrange your own food (although, we encountered a wonderful food cart in front of the hotel), bring your own soap.

The perfect starting point for a sunrise Mount Bromo excursion, while still having some sleep. Location with beautiful views over the mountain. The owner was very helpful in arranging transport to the hotel and an excursion to the volcano.

Nothing

We stayed here for a night as we wanted to do the Mount Bromo tour, which we did with Bromo Backpacker. It is quite far from the bus station (2h away) but we knew this when booking as we wanted to be close to Mount Bromo because the tour starts at 3am so please bear this in mind if you decide to book here. Mr Heri was super helpful, providing us with all of the information we needed and was our guide for the tour. Our plan after was to visit Tumpak Sewu and Ijen hike the following day and then head to Bali but due to an upcoming holiday in Bali, it meant we had to change our plans. Mr Heri kindly helped us travel from Bromo to each destination (total of 11h drive!!). He also helped us arrange a place for us to stay and our onward travel to Bali. The staff at Bromo Backpacker are very friendly, there are restaurants a short walk away from the hotel and an ATM nearby. Would recommend staying here!

There was a strange smell in Room 4, possibly from the humidity, and I couldn’t figure out the source. The walls are very thin, we could hear people snoring all night from the next room. The bed makes a lot of noise and definitely needs replacing, but since we only stayed one night, it wasn’t a big issue. Also, there are no bathroom amenities provided, so make sure to bring your own.

The location is great, with a good view and easy access to nearby food options. The room is small, but it’s enough for just sleeping before heading up the mountain. For a budget-friendly stay, it does the job.

Nope. Nothing.

The owner was kind to handle us. But unfortunately, a guy who stayed over there / hotel keeper seems like not friendly. I came w/ my fams, 3 little sister and my mom at about 22:00 and rent only 1 room as we cant sleep separately. It was night amd quiet. They rejected us as we came more than they capacity. The hotel keeper instead offered another hotel with unknown quality and savety. I couldn't except it as it too scary for ladies. I chose to left that hotel and find a safe hotel without any refund and they suddenly choose "canceled" in this apps. It was a terrible story in Bromo. Made me deeply regret. Sorry for this honest review.

There are like 5 mosques within 500 meters and there is hardly a way to sleep through call to prayer

The location is super close to King Kong Hill and if you are doing Bromo alone, may be your best bet. Rooms are simple but have what you need.

The staff is very friendly and helpful, I forget his name, an old man. He helps me to buy foods for dinner and the foods were beyond my expectation. It was really delicious especially the ayam goreng kampung with the chili sauce (sambal). Yummy, I'd love to go there again and taste it again.

The location in google maps is innacurate. Luckily, the contact person in booking.com is fast response and helpful. And actually there is also a staff who is waiting for us in warung in front of the wrong location in google maps. Hopefully, it can be fixed soon.

The motel has very beautiful scenery The staffs are nice and helpful, the rooms are clean Very comfortable to stay here. You can stay here if you want to be closer to Mt. Bromo and doing the Bromo sunrise tour. We stay for 1 night to visit Mt. Bromo at dawn. We book the jeep at the hotel and picked up at 3 AM.
