I had an amazing stay at this homestay! Everything was clean, room is big and the bed was comfy. I booked for 3 night, so one day to rest and the other day was to visit the temple but I extended for 2 more nights. Mostly because of Yudo, the owner, he is just amazing! First of all because he helped me with the ticket to Borobudur. Nowadays you need to book your ticket far in advance so I didnt had a ticket. But he helped me to get a ticket and luckily he got me a VIP ticket which made may trip to the temple 100 times better. He helped me not only with the tickets to the temple but also took me around the Borobudur area. We went to a tofu factory, pottery place, a place where you can make your own batik, to a coffee place up the mountain, the Selogriyo temple, a viewpoint for the Merapi volcano and a day trip to Dieng Plateau. This was by far one of the best places I stayed in Indonesia. Thank you so much for this unique experience!

Out of town, quiet, easy access to temples and surrounding villages. Hosts were amazing and went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. Due to the location of the homestay, food options are limited however hosts were extremely kind and went out to collect evening meals for us which were all delicious. Hosts Yudo and Fendi also offered to take us at 4:30am to see the sunrise from Barede hill over Borobudur temple. We had free use of the bicycles and were given a hand drawn map of the points of interest such as tofu and pottery villages. Free tea and coffee facilities and breakfast were provided and we were even given a lift with our bags to the bus station when leaving. Overall the accommodation is very basic however the hosts and surrounding area is what make this stay worth it, great for budget travellers wanting to get local insight.
Quite basic, not a lot of natural light in the building unless doors are open, plug socket in bedroom hanging out of the wall.

The owner is incredibly knowledgeable and generous in sharing his insights. He even shared with me the fascinating design and history of the house.As a cultural researcher, I gained a wealth of valuable information from him. He also recommended numerous fascinating, lesser-known places that I hadn’t discovered before. I’ll definitely return. The breakfast is simple yet delicious.
Internet could be more stable.

Everyone was very nice and helpful. If you want something or you have a question, they are going to do their best to help you out. I was sick when I stayed there, and they brought me tea that helps against throat sore . The location is a good place to stay when you want some quiet. You can borrow the owners bicycles to discover the area.
The windows don't have mosquito nets, but they gave us a spray what seemed to help because I have nearly no mosquito bites. I would just recommend closing the window shutters while having the room light on.

Super place to stay. Perfect location on the slopes of the hills, calm and quiet, still close to Borobudur. You can rent a bicycle for free and explore surroundings, which I recommend! Free tea and coffee during the stay. Morning views on the volcanoes Merapi, Merbabu and Sumbing. Got a free drive to the town on my way back. Absolutely amazing!

Super kind staff that gave suggestions for activities, such as sunrise spots and hiking routes. They advised on local food to eat. And they allowed us to store our luggage at the homestay while we were staying in another town where we did our vulcano climbing hike (Gunung Merbabu in Selo).

The owner and manager were such friendly and open people. They gave us a lot of good tips about the area according to what we were interested in. We felt very welcomed and cared about.
Don’t expect something fancy. The accommodation is plain but clean.

The owner Yudo is very friendly and helpfull. He knows lot o people and surprised us with a visit to a nearby village which was amazing. It is great that there bicycles available to visit the nearby monuments. We arrived quite lat and did have dinner yet, so the owner was so nice to get us some food.
Although it is not cold in the nights, I prefer a sheet together with the blanket. But after asking for sheet, a serong was profided which was perfectly fine.
