“Nice, clean and strategic budget hotel.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 February 2012
4
people found this review helpful

I just came back from Surabaya last night, 2 nights stay at this hotel.
I stayed at this hotel last June 2011, for budget hotel, this hotel is clean, design is cool.....so strategic, close to mall, restaurants, and nightlife entertainment.

Just found out yesterday that Blowfish discotheque above already closed, so is not noisy now.

Breakfast is terrible, not much choices better take room only and you can eat your breakfast in Fu Yuan Resto Level 1.

Recommended for short vist, business or leisure.

“Nice budget hotel, good location.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 February 2012

The hotel room was fairly clean, although the size of the room is quite small. Being in a strategic location, close to the Tunjungan Plaza Mall. In this area easy to find food vendors and restaurants. Like the reviews of other visitors, I chose the lower floor, so the music from the pub is not heard from the room. Given the fairly small room, better not carry that much stuff when staying at this hotel. The hotel also has a friendly staff. The beds and bathrooms kept clean.

“noisy hotel”

people found this review helpful

At this time I have no complain for this hotel. room and staffs are good. but guests in another rooms - i think they are in a group - are noisy. I don't like the breakfast menu.

Room Tip: avoid 6th floor, because this floor is too noisy at night. you can hear the sound from the pub at 7t...

“Good Location, Poor Breakfast.”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 January 2012
4
people found this review helpful

The location of this hotel is extremely good. This hotel is suitable for short trip especially if you want to have a city tour since the hotel is very close to shopping center and main city.

The room quite sufficient for short trip traveler (not too spacious and no windows). Don't bring a big suitcase otherwise you will disappoint because they don't even have a wardrobe. Fortunately, the room was clean and comfort. The bathroom also clean. But don't stay with your colleagues, the bathroom have curtain that not close properly. It feel a bit discomfort for some people.

The worst thing from this hotel was breakfast. They serve bread and rice (cold and hard) with 1 choice of vegetable & meat. I prefer buy some fast food for breakfast or have it in the place around the hotel. Overall the service was ok except the breakfast.
