The Bloomy House

Nice English-speaking staff. Clean room. Very cozy common area. Sweet architecture. And we could leave our luggage here prior our check in and post our check out.

Unfortunately no breakfast offered. Common area is cozy, but it would be nice if you offered some drinks and snacks for buying (free water, coffee, tea available though) When taking a shower, the toilet is set under water. The room nearest to the street is really really really loud. We are used to noisy rooms, but the window is so thin that you got the feeling, that you are sitting on the sidewalk of a busy street. Also the mosque nearby sounds like the megaphone is located your room and they start off very early in the morning. Also the inner door points into the main lobby and you will hear any coming and leaving guest plus checkout procedure. This room should be seriously discounted, you won't be able to get normal sleep here.

Everything. The staff, above all, but also the comfy and cozy vibe of the property, the location, the patio…

Family room, dining area..

Nope

Julia is very friendly and quite knowledgeable. She arranged a private driver for us, who is highly recommended. English was not a problem. Our family room was in the middle section, and it was quiet there. The front rooms are near the street and the entrance. The back rooms are by the courtyard, which is accessible to all guests. There, you can prepare drinks. There is also a communal kitchen that looked well-maintained. The room amenities were clean but very basic and could therefore be a bit cheaper. However, the price is probably based on the local rent.

Clean, best location and economical.

My room had fan. Those who are heat sensitive choose the room with AC.

The hosts are very helpful and always there for their guests. The room and bathroom were very, very clean. The nearby street could only be heard a little in the room, later in the evening it was quiet. It was really nice to sit in the courtyard. The homestay is well located for sightseeing in Yogyakarta; shops, restaurants and a great ice cream parlor can also be reached after a short walk.

Unfortunately, the guest kitchen was not very clean and we were not invited to use it. For example, the dishwashing sponge would need to be replaced urgently.

It was a clean, the bed was comfortable, air conditioning worked well. Location was convenient, easy to walk to nearby coffee shops and restaurants. Loved the little garden area with coffee and tea to chill with friends. There is a small kitchen and also a fridge and water dispenser. Julia was super helpful with planning our day, suggesting places to visit, nearby restaurants, good place for a massage, arranging a private car for a tour. Thank you Julia for making our stay so memorable.

Water pressure in the shower was slow, washing hair took a while. Bathroom is small so everything is wet after a shower. But not a deal breaker. The room facing the road lets the traffic sounds in but late in the night it’s not bad.

All very good

very warm welcome, comfortable, like arriving at home. Thanks guys!

Its an exceptional Hostel. One of the best ones I have been so far. Its small but you will feel like home. There is a beautiful garden inside where you can chill out during your stay and in the afternoon. Room is very comfy with two beds and some basic furniture. There is hanger outside for your wet towels. Bathroom is clean and quite big. There was just one thing which was annoying and this the bathroom light switch, which will also automatically switch-on the noisy fan (it can wake up rest of the family members). Breakfast is tasty, I am sure you will enjoy it. The host and his wife are super friendly. They will help you with getting around and arranging driver for whole day, which can take you to Prambanan, Borobudur, Merapi mountain, Watterfalls, Mariboro street, Luwang Coffee etc. It was also our pleasure to talk with them about daily life in Yogya. Hostel is ver close to the Sultan Palace and Mariboro, so you can make it by walk. Would happily return again, because we felt like at home all the time.

Noisy fan in the bathroom, but its only trifle in this beautiful oase.
