A beautiful heritage home that has been converted into a homestay, my stay here was absolutely delightful. The house has basic facilities, nothing fancy or ultra luxurious but that is the idea behind booking in a homestay. The family members who runs the homestay are very kind and helpful. It looks like money is not their priority but they genuinely love to meet and help people. I felt I was staying in a home with a loving and kind family. They went out of their way to help me out and facilitate many things that I required to do like train reservations/ballet tickets/day tours etc., and they did it out of genuine concern. The breakfast is delicious and sumptuous. Rooms are good size and comfortable. Excellent location, very close to the heart of the city Malioboro street and there are many eating joints at walking distance. Tours can be booked easily from the homestay at reasonable prices. Although I would say this property is value for money because it is a review but also I would like to add that kindness and humanity cannot be valued in terms of money. Thanks to Mrs and Mr Andari, Danny, Ranno and Daniella. I will always remember you.

Very friendly and helpful family: made me feel at home (esp. their 8yr English-fluent, imaginative granddaughter ;) - provided help with booking a day trip to the temples (and got up at night for the pick-up) - and their host student helped me out with urgent train ticket problems, thus saving my day! Good location: in a quiet backstreet in the centre, on walking distance from Kraton, Malioboro... Interior with character ;)

On a practical level, the following could/should be improved: 1/ the taxi driver had problems to find the place, I had to ask around. There is a small indication but it's insufficiently visible! 2/ I found the bed too hard, please consider another mattress / bottom 3/ no problem to share a bath/showerroom, but it's a bit shabby currently and the door does not close well. No place for the guest to put your things, few coat hangers. I'm sure that with a few simple interventions and adaptations, one could make it more practical and shareable 4/ lack of coat hangers in the bedroom

We became part of the family and the owners were wonderful and very helpful. Breakfast (authentic Indonesian/Javanese) was something to look forward to every morning. The location (tucked behind in a hidden alley) near the Kraton was awesome.

Like almost all places in Yogya, the place overall was clean, but bathrooms and toilet needed a bit of a scrub.

located in a quiet area, close to local sights: sultan palace and water palace. Vedder Berg Museum. the hosts were very friendly and helpful. it was a real homestay, I felt welcomed and cared for. the owner even gave me a lift to the train station , because it was very early : 3,45 am.

It was interesting to see the decor and layout of a traditional Javanese home, and of course the hosts were extremely hospitable and kind to us. We felt so welcomed by them. They chatted with us, cooked us authentic food and were so determined to help us in any way that they can. I highly recommend staying at Pendopo Andari for at least a night if you are coming to Yogyakarta!

It was a little worn down but there is good effort in maintaining the home - it is expected as this is a real home opened to guests so it was definitely a unique experience. The warmth of the hosts made up for any discomfort that a city-dweller may feel.

Location is great, just a 5 minute walk to a full of life city centre. The staff were really attentive too, we could put a wash on for free which was really appreciated. The first day we had their typical dish for breakfast, which was lovely, but unfortunately the following day they just offered us peanut butter and jam with toast, which was disappointing.

The double room with private bathroom is really small, there isn't even room to open a backpack. Breakfast we had on the second day was poor and it wasn't local, which is what we were expecting. Particularly I didn't like the fact that they kept piling up people's shoes on top of mine. There was plenty of room on the shoe rack.

Andari and his family were so welcoming and hospitable. They were really attentive to our needs and helped us organise our trip to the temples. The fact that they offer free breakfast, complimentary water, teas and coffees made it for us. Rooms were very clean and air con worked. Showers were warm and kept tidy. We felt so at home we stayed 4 nights. Would 100% recommend for a friendly stay.

Some harmless fruit flies in the ceiling but they sprayed it for us which kept them at bay.

The family was very welcoming. I had to leave at 6:45 for my tour and they offered me an early breakfast if i wanted. The room was comfortable and the AC was cold! about a 10 minute walk to Malioboro.

Only thing I didnt like was because i did not pay attention when i looked. I booked a room with a shared bathroom instead of the room with the bathroom. Whoops my fault.

The hosts were incredibly hospitable. A real homestay. Every morning a different dish for breakfast. Also they shared dinner with us when Danny (musician and friend of family) was having his birthday

Only one real bathroom in which one can take a shower. There are 2 more combined shower-toilets, bit they are too small

Breakfast was included in the booking, we were served with different meals every morning, the best was when we need to leave at 4am on the last day, Ros Andari packed 2 sets of breakfast for us, booked the taxi for us and even woke up to send us off. This gesture money can't buy. We were deeply touched.

Homestay bed room was abit small for us, we requested up-grade & willing to pay for it, but there was not available.
