The welcoming and friendly staff on arrival and throughout the stay. The building was fabulous, colonial style with big rooms and beds. There were areas to sit in and free tea, coffee and water. The breakfast was good and they did us a pack up on our leaving day as we went early. The atmosphere was very calm after the chaos of Yogykarta! It was a perfect location, on a quiet street. We could walk to the square where every single evening there were lots of street good stalls. We rented a moped to get around, but Grabs were good too. We loved our stay here and would definitely come back!

We had to leave!!!!

The staff were really great, especially Maria, and breakfast had western, Javanese and vegan options. The western breakfast was fruit, toast, juice, omelette and jams every day. The Javanese option was different every day but always very good. The room was very good and there was an ensuite. Air conditioning was excellent. Note, however, it was a homestay and did not have the facilities that one would expect from a hotel room. Nevertheless a very interesting place different from other locations favoured by westerners.

Location was in the old area surrounding the Sultan's palace, which was some distance from Malioboro St and other lively areas attractive to western visitors. Great for sights for Indonesian tourists, however. On the other hand, Grab cars were incredibly cheap and readily available and took us everywhere.

The hotel is located just two blocks from the southern ulun ulun (open square) of the Keraton, within walking distance of most historical landmarks in the city. The rooms are immaculately maintained by the staff, and the common areas are nicely furnished and comfortable.

We visited over the idulfitri holidays, so everything was closed for 4 days during our stay. The shops on Marliboro and the Borodubur and Prambanan temples were open, but they were hard to get to from the hotel without a taxi. We ended up making daily excursions with Grab drivers.

The best place I have ever stayed. The room is super clean. Cleaner than my own house. The building is very beautiful, as well as the decoration inside. Staff are really nice and helpful; I saw some comment of whom stayed here before said that they not really speak english, but they are good at it, they speak english, at least we understand each other 😁. The breakfast is not vary. But it is enough; there are choices of continental breakfast and vegan option, fresh juice and fresh fruits. You can also mix. This place might far for the centre but it is walkable to Jl. Prawirotaman and Jl. Parangtritis where you can find a lot of good place to eat. We walked; it took us almost half an hour 🤣There are also a local night market 2 min walk. The gate will be lock at 11pm, if you are going to be late at night, you need to let them know before you leave. The door to the building is always locked, just knock the door they will be right there 😁 Please see the pictures. This place is worth every rupaih I have paid for.

🙅Nope🙅

Maria was excellent with helping us with transportation and things to do and where to eat. Bram was also very attentive to our needs at breakfast. We were there for 3 nights and each morning was a different delicious and beautifully presented breakfast. The location was ideal for walking to the sites. Other than morning prayer at 4:45, it’s a very quiet location.

Hot water shower, but didn’t really need it because the tepid water was cooling.

Spotless clean, very friendly and helpful staff. Good breakfast and very large comfortable beds. Great value for money and super location. Highly recommend.

Nothing, our stay was perfect

The cleanest place I have ever stayed. The staff are also very helpful and free breakfast is great. Rooms are big and have everything you need. The house itself is beautiful

They lock the door so you sometimes have to wait outside for someone to come and let you in. I usually didn’t have to wait long though. The location isn’t that good for walking everywhere. It’s a beautiful neighbourhood but not really walking distance to food

I would highly recommend the Griya Asih, it is an beautiful traditional House with 6 rooms. The staff were always very helpful and kind and we ended up, due to illness, relying on their help a bit. It's a small team of staff and they were just great. The breakfast was very very good, and resulted in us not needing lunch, it consisted of local food that was very well cooked and presented, and there was European choices as well. The rooms were clean and quite big and the on-suite bathroom was clean with an excellent shower that could deliver a real blast of water if needed. It's in a quite road about 150 meters from a main square that comes alive with families and friends at night, it's clearly a local focal point and was fun to walk around in the evening. Overall a really good 5 nights.

The palace is beautiful, like a museum. And clean. And quiet... even if outside you can often hear the noise of the external units of the AC. There is the water dispenser very convenient also for coffee and tea. It's possible to work with the laptop from the room, table and chair are comfortable enough and wifi is good. Breakfast is punctual and good.

As written above, it was possible to hear the noise of the external units of the AC. Too much light, impossible to avoid it in the morning. Uncomfortable pillows. I rarely felt so tired after a few days spent trying to sleep in a place.

A very nice homestay in a colonial style house. Co.fortable bed and good shower. Nice breakfst.

In a fairly quiet part of town (that was good for us). Slighly strange that the front door was usually locked, and we only had a key to our room. A staff member usually turned up quite quickly, but we had one 30 minute wait in very wet clothes after a downpour!
