    The bed is comfortable and it was quiet when I was there but there are too many beds in the same room and the room looks like it used to be a waiting room, it kind of felt like sleeping in a waiting room. But it was still comfortable.

    Great service, very very nice hosts. Big and clean bed

    It is next to a big street and motorbikes can be VERY loud throughout the day and night, so bring ear plugs!

    I had a good stay here, everything was very close as the location is central. I booked the tour to Bromo here and I had the best time! The owner and his son were the loveliest people I met, they have beautiful energy!

    Close to central, kind and friendly staff, travelling as a solo woman and felt totally safe and cared for at all times, the coffee is great, and I like the retro style of the lobby! Beds are comfy w light and curtains. I have been travelling for ages so mostly kept to myself and used the downstairs area to work and was quite content to be there 🫶🏼 only moved because I needed a room for longer stay and work. stayed for ten days, highly recommend for a peaceful stay w great coffee and warm hosts

    Jon and his family did their up most to make us feel welcome and comfortable! It really feels like a home away from home. Lovely coffee served in the downstairs area. As central as can be, and the hosts are always available to help with bookings/planning/advice. Ended up staying an extra night as we didn't want to leave.

    They didn’t prepare any liquid soap at the time but on the second day, one of their staff offered me some small soaps (which was nice) but i had already my own liquid soaps, so that was okay (because I’ve already read some reviews)

    It was clean, the access was superb, close to many restaurants, close to Malang station.

    Majority people who stay here are part of the Bromo tours and need to get up really early to start. Most people seemed to respect that when lights were off or dorm bed curtains closed - except 2 people who turned every light on and talked loudly for an hour on arrival. Yes, was only 7pm - but some consideration is key when in dorms Not the hostels fault I may add here - just other travellers

    I can't slate this place too much as it was a last minute booking and was all I cd get. I don't usually stay in dorms either and not big/mixed ones either so can't let that influence my review For me I would say everything was ok... Shower and toilets were fine Beds had curtains lamps and plug points which is what you need Cafe downstairs In a great area for food and rainbow village only 900m away

    The place is really nice and I slept very well with super confortable beds. I really loved the family, they're all very friendly, helpful and make you feel like at home. They organized amazing tours, I joined one to Tumpac Sewu Waterfall (where we also did an amazing trekking and saw a nice cave nearby) and another to see mount Bromo at sunrise, I enjoyed both a lot. A part from being good tour guides, they are also really funny and pleasant to hang around with, so they make the tours and the stay really special. Super nice family. They helped us to reach the city of Surabaya from Malang to catch our flight too.

    Afghar and his father are the best, willing to help you with anything you need and always with a smile on their face. They help you organise any trips you want to do such as Bromo providing you with thorough information and their valuable expertise. I did Bromo and it was overall a 10/10. Also, the coffee is so good, best in Malang for sure and the best I have tried in Indonesia. Perfect place and perfect people.
