Located in Banyuwangi, 17 km from Watu Dodol, PaddyView by Zzz provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace. Free WiFi and a shared kitchen are provided.

Each room is fitted with air conditioning, and certain rooms at the hostel have a balcony. It’s not a party place, and that was perfect for me. I wanted to recharge after a week of moving around. The kitchen is small but spotless, and I appreciated the free tea and coffee corner. There’s even a little book exchange and board games for those staying in.

Located in Malang, 3.4 km from Velodrome Malang, Zzz Hostel Malang provides accommodation with a shared lounge, free private parking and a terrace. Located around 4.6 km from Alun-alun Tugu, the hostel with free WiFi is also 4.8 km away from Taman Rekreasi Kota. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen and room service for guests. I spent hours reading and journaling. It felt calm and safe, even for a solo female traveler. The rooms were basic but clean, and the showers had hot water (which I didn’t expect!). Staff were soft-spoken and respectful, and the other guests were laid-back—not rowdy backpackers, which I appreciated. A great choice if you’re looking to unwind for a few days.
