    The common area is great for meeting new people, and the kitchen is fully equipped, which was perfect for cooking meals. The staff were friendly and always up for a chat. The hostel also provided shuttle service to Bali, which made our travel much easier.

    The WiFi was a bit unstable at times

    This hostel is well-located in a quiet residential area but still close to restaurants and cafes. The Ijen tour offered here was convenient and affordable, saving a lot of hassle. The rooms were comfortable, and the staff sent us helpful recommendations before arrival. Overall, an amazing experience!

    Umm… maybe the aircon was too cold, but not really a big deal!

    Great social atmosphere, helpful staff, well-priced Ijen tour, hot water in shared bathroom

    No hot water in private room

    Everything was almost perfect. The staff was helpful, the room was comfy, and the common areas were great. The only small issue was the hot water—it’s only available in the shared bathroom, not in the private rooms. But given the warm weather, it wasn’t a big deal.

The common area is great for chilling, and the staff always made sure we had everything we needed. We joined their Ijen tour, and it was so well-organized! Also, they helped us arrange transport to Bali, which was super convenient. One of the best hostels in Indonesia!!!

    Nope, I love everything!

    The reviews were already great, but experiencing it firsthand was even better! The whole place is incredibly clean, well-maintained, and super cozy. We loved that they provided toiletries and towels in the room. The staff (especially Fauzan) was very helpful and even recommended some great local food spots. We also joined their Ijen tour, and it was perfectly arranged! If you need transportation, they also help with shuttles to Bali

They even have a cute cat that loves to hang around. The self-check-in system was easy, which was helpful since we arrived late at night. Great place to stay before heading to Ijen!

    Stayed for two nights and wished it was longer! The whole place is cozy and well-maintained, with plenty of spaces to relax. The staff were always ready to help and gave the best local recommendations. One of the best parts was how easy everything was—check-in, the Ijen tour, and even getting a Grab to the train station. Felt completely at home here.

    Everything was perfect, from the friendly staff to the clean rooms and relaxing garden area. However, the WiFi was a bit unstable at times, especially in the evening. Other than that, everything was great, and the atmosphere felt really welcoming. The staff helped with transport to Bali, which made the journey much easier.

    Such a cozy and well-organized place! The hostel is in a quiet residential area but still close to restaurants, cafes, and ATMs. The shared kitchen is fully equipped, which was great for preparing small meals. The highlight for us was how well they managed our Ijen-Bromo tour and shuttle to Bali. Everything was arranged smoothly, making our trip stress-free. The staff was super friendly and always ready to help with anything.

    Everything was just perfect! From the moment we arrived, the staff was incredibly welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. The place itself is very cozy, with plenty of greenery around, creating a peaceful atmosphere. The best part? The Ijen tour they organized was well-planned and reasonably priced. Everything went smoothly, and the guide was very knowledgeable. We also appreciated the small details, like getting local food recommendations via WhatsApp before arriving. Felt very taken care of!

    Zzz Hostel Ijen was sooo cozy and well-organized!!! The place is kept very clean, and the dorm beds are comfortable with personal outlets. I had an issue with my transport arriving late at night, but the hostel sent me a self-check-in video which made everything easy. The staff were always there to help and even shared recommendations for local food. Oh, and the hostel has an adorable cat!!! ❤ Definitely recommended!!!

    A wonderful experience! Zzz Ijen is located in a quiet residential area but just a short walk from the main road where you can find cafes and restaurants. The hostel feels like home, and the common area is a great place to meet other travelers. The staff was extremely friendly and always there to help with anything. The best part was enjoying late-night chats with other guests in the garden. Definitely a great place to stay!
