Not staying longer !

We enjoyed so much our stay at Banyuwangi thanks to our host, Agus, whom facilited everything for us. Thanks to him, we had the best guide we could hope for to hike up the Kawah Ijen and he managed every part of the trip organisation (medical certificate, going to and from the base camp, supplies as headlamp, gazmask, food and water) and even rent him a scooter to explore Banyuwangi. The room was very clean, comfortable and calm and very well situated juste in front of the trainstation. Moreover Agus really cared about us having a great time. Overall, staying at this hostel was a great value for the money we spend and an incredible human experience. Thank you so much Agus !

Very humid in the room.

Right in front of the main station. Absolutely great for the price you pay.

No hot water.

Quiet and comfortable. There is no signage at the property. Google maps will indicate to you the wrong location. Just head towards the shop for about 50metres and the property is at the row of shops opposite the train station.

We chose the room with just a fan so it was a bit hot but was as we expected and definitely good for the price we payed

Location was so ideal, attached was a really affordable local restaurant, opposite was the train station which had an Alfamart in it! Everyone was really friendly and helpful - highly recommend if you’re on a budget! Also the bike we rented from them was really good quality.

Absolutely superb Homestay run by a wonderful family, the owners Agus and his wife were great hosts and helped us to arrange our Ijen trip. The Homestay itself is great value and directly opposite the brand new Banyuwangi kota station which was really convenient, the tour of Ijen was one of the most amazing experiences of our whole trip and was really reasonably priced. Agus was exceptionally kind and attentive and really made us feel at home, we had ice tea when we arrived and tea and fruit when we returned from Ijen. The food at the family’s restaurant was really tasty and very affordable. If you’re visiting Banyuwangi I would absolutely stay here it was more than we could have hoped for from start to finish. Thank you for the wonderful experience !

There are no amenities except towels and blanket. Also no drinking water on your room table unless you ask for a refill of drinking water at the reception desk, so prepare your tumbler.

just one step from the station gate, the atmosphere is quiet even though it is close to the train station. the room is clean. The owner is friendly and you can rent a motorbike and they even provide trip package services to several tourist destinations in Banyuwangi.

This place was very nice and clean. It was exactly next to the train station what we wanted. The owner was very nice, we went to Ijen with Tour through him and it was amazing. You can rent a motor bike as well. Close to this accomodation is the option of local food.

Very warm welcome by the friendliest hosts. The room was clean and spacious. Location is perfect next to the station of Banyuwangi Kota. We booked a trip to Ijen here and that was exactly as described.

Train horns can be heard from 5 am to late in the evening, so bring earplugs. It gets light in the room in the morning and an eye mask is also nice to have.

We were received by Agus' family very warmly, they are all very service minded and friendly. Agus was a great host who speaks great English, he organized a midnight tour for us on a short notice. The location is convenient if you need to take the train, the Kota station is just a minute away. There are plenty of local small shops and warungs along the road we're you can get a meal or snacks and drinks. The room was quite big, the bed was alright. We had to ask for a bigger blanket which Agus kindly provided. Also, the shower does have hot water, just the red and blue markings are turned around.

Nitha Homestay was an excellent choice! Agus, the host, was super welcoming and very helpful in organizing everything I needed. The room was clean, comfortable, and great for relaxing. The family restaurant at the entrance made dining easy, and the location is perfect—just a minute’s walk from the train station. Although Kawah Ijen tours were closed, Agus arranged other activities and offered scooter rentals, which was convenient. Overall, fantastic value for the price. Highly recommended!

Bed sheet to cover two people is rubbish! Needs much bigger ones and also better quality/thicker. The towels same problem, needs bigger ones. Thought mine was a face one it was so small. Needs better lighting choice.

Location to train station. Friendly welcome. You can do Ijen tour direct from them. Shower good. AC was ok.

Super spacious and clean compared to other hostel in java island. Only one disadvantage i experienced was that there was no shampoo & soap. Those who are visiting this hostel have to consider this point. But, overall hostel was comfortable, host was super attentive. I highly recommend this hostel.

The fan could be more correctly positioned, from such a distance it didn't help much

It was very well located, right across from the train station. The room was also very large, of course very simple in relation to its price, which was fair. The owner very kind he arranged for us a wonderful evening visit to the Ijen volcano and we saw the blue flames.
