Reviews of Sleepy Raccoon Hostel

It is very clean, the staff is insanely nice and helpful, and it's close to touristic areas.

The only thing I regret is not coming here earlier! It doesn’t get any better than this… beautiful surroundings, well-maintained dorm room and staff that will do anything for you. 10/10 would come again

It was clean and comfortable. The owner is really nice and has a very cute cat. Everything was great. Although its a little far from centre but you can always rent a bike or take grab. Wasn’t really much of a problem. Would highly recommend staying here

Everything is great! Clean, comfortable, quite, friendly and good price!!!

Nice hostel, spacious and fancy with a very friendly staff happy to help you for any kind of request.

Everything was perfect at Sleepy Racoon where we stayed for seven nights. Firstly, the owner and the rest of the staff are very welcoming. They help you to settle all the needs you might have. The hotel offers many services such as a laundry for your clothes, transportation for the different surrounding attractions or the rental of scooters. Furthermore, the hotel allows you to use a shared kitchen with free coffee and tea in which you'll also be able to refill your water bottles. Secondly, the comfort and cleanliness of the room. It's probably the quieter room we've had in Indonesia, far enough from the road and the mosques. The tap was pouring hot water and the AC worked well. Thirdly, you might question yourselves about the location. Indeed, the hotel is a bit far from the main attractions of the city. It's true but it allows you to have calm nights and you can get to the city center in just a few minutes of scooter or taxi.

Very cheap private room for what you get! Clean, hot water, free water dispenser, friendly staff.

Gap in door allowed mosquitos in the room and there was no net. However the receptionist kindly sprayed our room with bug spray which seemed to fix the problem whilst we were there.

Cozy hostel, I booked both a dorm bed then a private room, both were very comfy. Muk is a great owner who’s always trying to be as helpful as possible. If you wanna visit anything around Jogja (or Java in general) he’ll help you out and make a plan for you if you need it. He booked me a train for the airport because the official app doesn’t work with a foreign card, for example.

The location is a bit far from the center, but grabs and Gojeks are so cheap that it didn’t matter that much. There wasn’t much space between the rows of beds in the dorm, so having to get the things out of the locker space was a bit tedious. Still not much of an issue.

The communal areas were great, Mok was very helpful and the grounds nice.

Kettle takes ages to boil.

Fresh air surrounding Clean and green environment Nice owner and helpful staff

The staff are warm-hearted and kind. The facilities are excellent. There is a spacious yard with verdant flora. I enjoy the tranquillity there. And the owner also keeps an adorable cat. The kitten is very friendly 🥰

Perfect

Such a perfect stay!! The hostel is beautiful, the kitchen is clean and well equipped, showers are hot, toilets are clean, rooms are clean and beds are comfy with plugs and lights and a shelf, the staff are fantastic and friendly and super helpful with everything! Really felt like home for a few days. Couldn’t recommend this place more !!

Nothing !!

The vibe of this place is really nice. The owner Mok is very welcoming and feels like he genuinely wants to meet and make friends with people. I felt like we did become friends during our stay. Unfortunately my partner had some health issues while we stayed here but Mok was extremely helpful with finding a hospital and everything. He was also very knowledgeable about Yogumya in general and always had a recommendation for something to see or a place to eat. The good thing about this is it creates a social atmosphere in the guests too and I found that everyone there is very open and friendly. I'd say we made a couple of long lasting friends. We also loved hanging out with the friendly cats on the property. We would absolutely stay again!

I would say the beds aren't the comfiest and the pillows are a bit lumpy. We also got woken up by a rooster most days but to be fair that's just the indonesian experience I think!

Perfect hostel! We loved our time there, we didn't wanted to leave. The rooms are big and clean, many places to hangout, on the property, a complete kitchen and free coffee, we were in paradise. What a great place! Mukhtar, the owner, is there to help with anything, always smiling and in a good mood, you can feel his love for his place.

The owner is so friendly and kind. If you need anything or have any questions, don't hesitate to ask him - definitely the kindest and most friendly bapak kos I've ever had! Also the room had AC which I didn't expect but was pleasantly surprised by!

A little bit out of the city, but that's not really a problem, and it means prices are a bit cheaper.

Cosy hostel that feels like a home away from home, with lovely and helpful staff. Strongly recommend talking to them for tips on sightseeing, places to eat, etc.

The property is a bit far away from some of the key attractions in Yogyakarta. You will likely need to take a scooter or taxi/Grab to get to centre of the city, unless you’re keen to walk a reasonably long distance.
