The ReVive by Snooze hostel is very clean and well maintained. It has a clean kitchen that you can use at any time. I've never been to a hostel with such helpful staff. They helped us book the tour to Ijen, booked us a bus to Malang and supported us at any time with any questions. All the employees were always in a good mood and asked about our well-being.

We had a great stay at Snooze Ijen. The hostel is a beautiful house with garden. Our private room was spacious and had a private bathroom as well. Late check in was also possible which was very convenient for us. They are amazingly well organized and provide tons of information about restaurants, day trips and transportation to Bali e.g. We booked an Ijen tour through them which was amazing. Would definitely come back!

This is a fantastic hostel. The location is great, very close to a train station and some eateries. The staff is super nice and helpful. Everything is perfectly clean. The design is interesting and thought-out. They also organise trips to Bromo, Ijen, Tempak Sewu etc. We took the Bromo sunrise one, and it went very smoothly, the driver was really great (which is important for this kind of trips). Do not hesitate to book a private room here.

I like it. Very basic little hostel down a dodgy looking alley. Nice and secluded and very quiet. The beds were comfy and the price was right. The staff were friendly and answered all my questions about the area. Green Canyon body rafting tour can be booked for rp250k which seems to be the cheapest on offer that I found. 100m or a 2 minute stroll to the surf beach and a 15 minutes walk to some nice warungs. Free tea and coffee, and some toast in the morning. Definitely worth staying if you just want to chill

The best hostel I've stayed in so far! Great staff, super location, very cozy, clean, plenty of common space. I liked it so much I extended my stay for two nights. If I'm ever back in Jogja I'll make sure to stay at Sante again!

The overall property was amazing and they are very clean and organized. The staff ensures the guests are at their comfort and they provide assistance at every instance we request anything for. Overall one of the best hostels I have stayed at and I would recommend this place as a goto place without any hesitation.

One of the best hostels i stayed in Indonesia. Loved the energy of the staff. Danny, Nindy and the one tall guy were super helpful in everything. The hostel is located in West Jakarta really close to the Airport.

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.

Great location next to the red line and Gambir station. Lots of good places to eat in the nearby areas. Hostel is clean and has a lot of bathrooms. Ok common area upstairs which is being renovated, at least one balcony. Free water refills and coffee/tea was nice.

Perfectly located for visiting Malang (close to train station and points of interest). The people there are so nice and helpful (we got some coffee and fruits and long conversations 😃). Good cheap tours organized by Jon. Beds are confortable. They said i could keep my bed and have a nap until midnight (before Bromo) without paying the night. One large dormitory, but though it is on a passing road, i could sleep well (no noise issues). Decoration of common room is nice.

Great hostel! Only stayed there for a few hours before doing the 1D Bromo tour. Very clean and comfy! Bathroom was clean. Staff very friendly and tour guide really good. Great location closed to the coloured villages.
