The homestay was really unique. The rooms were really clean. The pool in the front was a refreshing way to cool down during the day. The property was a short grab from many central locations. The staff were amazing! They really went above and beyond at every step. Their communication was great throughout. They even offered to pack us a breakfast to go on mornings we had early starts with tours etc,.

Over the years of traveling, I have seen many hostels. This one is among the best, comparable to Seattle hostels. Very clean, comfortable, everything is well-organized in the house, comfortable sleeping places. The owner is very hospitable! Right on the spot, they organized a tour to the volcano Ijen for me, for which I came here. The place is quiet, calm, on the river bank, but there are no mosquitoes. A dream of a perfectionist traveler!😃

We had a wonderful stay, it's probably the best place we've stayed at that price range so far across Bali and Java. Great value for money, the listing doesn't do it justice. We extended from 3 nights to 5. We'll definitely stay here next time we're in town. Room and bathroom were clean and well fitted. Bed comfortable, AC and mosquito net. Bathroom is big. The decoration is pleasant. The host is attentive. There's a communal rooftop we had to ourselves because there weren't many other guests. We rented scooters through the host to go to Borobudur and they were great and affordable. The location is wonderful, plenty of nice cafes and restaurants around. We loved it

The hostel is situated in the heart of jogja but in a quiet neighbourhood, ~5 minutes walk to the main road where you can find a lot of restaurants, local vendors and places to chill, enjoy live music and have some drinks. There is a swimmingpool which is so nice specially in the hottest hours, Beautiful sharing kitchen where you can cook or make your coffee or tea, drinkible water available all the time, also there are couple of sharing spaces where you can choose if you want to chill with the rest of the travelers in the swimingpool area and inside house which is more private for the guests or otherwise you got the option to share with the locals at the front chilling area. They also got the options to sort out your rental motor or tours if you are interested. The place is absolutely stunning as also is the staff, which they are so helpful and very friendly, specially Boim. I stayed in the female dormitory, the bed is like sleeping in clouds, so nice room and very comfortable with sharing bathroom. Everything was impeccable clean and they have hot shower which sometimes is difficult to find places like this! There are 3 studios house which is perfect for couple or families. You have your own bathroom, your chill area inside with sofabed and coffe/tea maker and also got a beautiful terrace. Definitely, I will be back, but this time to stay in studio. Massive thank you to Ipey and Boim who help me with all my queries and questions. They are outstanding! If you are coming to Jogja, do not hesitate, this is your place! You won't regret it! 😉

Ahmed, who is taking care of the guests, is an amazing person. He will help you if you have questions and knows a lot about things to do in the area. The room has a good size and the shared bathroom is good. ( 2 showers, 2 toilets for Max 8 people). The hostel is 3 km from city centre but you have restaurants and shops nearby. We stayed 5 nights and it were sad te leave. So nice people, what a special place. If you go to malang, this is the place!!!

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!

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.

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 value for money, not too far from the old centre, nearby are some good restaurants and even cafes. Overall this seemed like a typical backpackers hostel for young white tourists but luckily, not too loud and messy while we stayed. The price is low, don't expect too much.
