Over the years of traveling, I have seen many hostels. This one is among the best, comparable to Seattle hostels. Very clean, comfortable, everything is well-organized in the house, comfortable sleeping places. The owner is very hospitable! Right on the spot, they organized a tour to the volcano Ijen for me, for which I came here. The place is quiet, calm, on the river bank, but there are no mosquitoes. A dream of a perfectionist traveler!😃

Ranasa is the best place I've stayed in Indonesia. It's clean, quiet and the owners are the nicest and kindest people. The neighbourhood is surprisingly nice, you will get the opportunity to see something different than malioboro. I am a light sleeper and I could sleep really well here, no sunlight or external noise in the room

I like it. Very basic little hostel down a dodgy looking alley. Nice and secluded and very quiet. The beds were comfy and the price was right. The staff were friendly and answered all my questions about the area. Green Canyon body rafting tour can be booked for rp250k which seems to be the cheapest on offer that I found. 100m or a 2 minute stroll to the surf beach and a 15 minutes walk to some nice warungs. Free tea and coffee, and some toast in the morning. Definitely worth staying if you just want to chill

The best hostel I've stayed in so far! Great staff, super location, very cozy, clean, plenty of common space. I liked it so much I extended my stay for two nights. If I'm ever back in Jogja I'll make sure to stay at Sante again!

The overall property was amazing and they are very clean and organized. The staff ensures the guests are at their comfort and they provide assistance at every instance we request anything for. Overall one of the best hostels I have stayed at and I would recommend this place as a goto place without any hesitation.

One of the best hostels i stayed in Indonesia. Loved the energy of the staff. Danny, Nindy and the one tall guy were super helpful in everything. The hostel is located in West Jakarta really close to the Airport.

The rooms were basic but okay. Beds were quite comfortabel and the shower was warm. The staff were really nice and were staying up late to drink some beers and play some music. The backpackers feeling was really nice and it was the perfect place to meet new people in Yogyakarta. The pool was also a nice addition.

Perfectly located for visiting Malang (close to train station and points of interest). The people there are so nice and helpful (we got some coffee and fruits and long conversations 😃). Good cheap tours organized by Jon. Beds are confortable. They said i could keep my bed and have a nap until midnight (before Bromo) without paying the night. One large dormitory, but though it is on a passing road, i could sleep well (no noise issues). Decoration of common room is nice.

Great hostel! Only stayed there for a few hours before doing the 1D Bromo tour. Very clean and comfy! Bathroom was clean. Staff very friendly and tour guide really good. Great location closed to the coloured villages.

Great value for money, not too far from the old centre, nearby are some good restaurants and even cafes. Overall this seemed like a typical backpackers hostel for young white tourists but luckily, not too loud and messy while we stayed. The price is low, don't expect too much.
