MiTS

The feel of staying in a cottage surroounded by greenery all by ourselves was a real bonus for us. Where at front there were 2 cafes. Although it had patrons till late but the cottage was a bit at the back and we didn't really hear much from the people down below. Cacha took the trouble of accompanying us to do our shopping and advised us where is safe or isn't.

Nothing.

Alles!!!! De geweldige ontvangst door Citra, die heel behulpzaam, vriendelijk, zorgzaam en nog veel meer, is. Fantastisch mens, die ons zelfs ook mee heeft genomen op uitstapjes, zonder daar iets voor terugvtevragen, behalve benzinekosten. Ook Jaja, een van de andere medewerkers, die we in het hostel niet hebben meegemaakt (vrije dagen), maar due ons wel bij haar familie thuis heeft uitgenodigd om hari Raya (eund van de Ramadan) mee te vieren.

Niets

"Hostel" doesn't do this stay justice. MiTS is effectively a private Airbnb fit for 2+ people. It is a brilliant, stylish place to stay in Bandung to relax, unwind and explore the city/mountains. The location is great - close enough to the city centre that it is reachable by 15 minutes in car/on bike. You are even closer to the mountains that surround Bandung, including the Djuanda (Tahura) Forest Park. This makes the accommodation fresh and cool, as well as relatively quiet as it is away from the busy road. There are also quality amenities including a restaurant and bakery in the same courtyard which means you do not need to venture far for breakfast/lunch/dinner if you wish. The best part about MiTS are the hosts, though. Citra and Cindy made themselves available throughout our stay, letting us into the accommodation at 6am(!) on day one, after our night train from Yogyakarta. They then offered to tour us around the city and surrounding area in Citra's car, but we'd already hired a bike. I don't doubt, if they are available, they would do the same for you. The cherry-on-top was dropping off fresh fruit for breakfast on Day 2, and snacks for our onward journey to Jakarta before we left on the third morning. We were glad that we had (somewhat) managed to return the favours when we went for dinner with our hosts the night before! Citra said on day one "consider me your friend when in Bandung" and we certainly felt like friends by the time we left! Thanks so much girls <3

There was a little noise in the mornings from nearby (temporary) construction, but it did not bother us as we were so comfortable staying at MiTS.

Citra and Cindy were the most accommodating, and lovely hosts, very responsive to messages and very generous with their time and care. The location in Dago is very central, easy to commute into town from. The hostel itself is beautifully decorated and nestled in a little bit of nature back from the main st. It was great to have a filtered water dispenser, decent sized fridge and cooktop we could use throughout our stay. The surrounding businesses made it easy to get snacks, food and coffee. We felt very looked after! If I'm ever in Bandung again I know where I want to stay :).

The atmosfeer was amazing. The host were so kind. It’s a house in a garden you have for yourself. Only one room. The bed was very good and also the shower with hot water. Wifi is very strong. There is a tapbottle for water. In the garden is also a café. It’s quiet except for the mosks. Realize it’s at the outside of Bandung and the trágico is heavy. But Gojek saves you :-)

Cindy and Citra are AMAZING hosts. The place was very cozy and very clean. In the evening and at night I had the place for myself which made me feel like I was a resident hahaha. They took me on a hike and went with me to see some music in Bandung. Very fun, very kind and very caring woman who speak amazing English. I don't know why this hostel doesn't have more reviews. Best place I stayed in yet. Thank you so much lady's! Until we meet again😊

Although it's called a youth hostel, it feels more like an air B&B. There's only one twin-bedroom available, making it more suitable for two or more travelers than solo travelers. The owner is very friendly, and the accommodations are clean. It's a great place to relax and undisturbed.

Ich war schon in vielen Hostels aber hatte noch nie so ein tolles Erlebnis wie hier! Zunächst ist es weniger ein Hostel als ein Homestay, wobei man ein sehr geräumiges Zimmer mit Balkon, bequemen Betten und den Rest vom Haus inklusive Küche und Bad für sich alleine hat. Es gibt zwar keine anderen Reisenden dafür drei unheimlich liebe local Mädels, denen das Hostel gehört. Sie helfen einen wo sie nur können und man fühlt sich nach der ersten Minute schon wie Familie. Die Mädels kennen sich super aus und sind sehr crafty, wenn man also was neues ausprobieren will, wissen sie auf jeden Fall wo. Es war wirklich angenehm hier zu sein, unter Tags hatte ich die beste Gesellschaft und abends hatte ich das Haus für mich und konnte entspannen. Ich hatte eine wunderschöne Zeit und freue mich darauf, ganz bald wiederzukommen. (Mit etwas Glück kann man bei einem unbewölkten Morgen die Berge aus dem Bett sehen)

Das ich wieder gehen musste :(
