Booked via agoda with good rate. Room is good, breakfast is good, location is great, service is excellent, and yes.. it is not the most comfortable experience but at this price anything more than what this guest house can offer is really too much to ask for.

The hotel is simple and at a good location. The room was quite cramped but in good condition. Our experience wasn't as good as other reviewers. They delivered tea and fruit to our room after check-in. When I peeled the fruit to eat, about 50 ants popped out of the fruit. I returned the fruit with the ants to the... More

Very nice and clean guesthouse. It is not luxury, but everything was working perfectly and the staff is very helpful. The bed was very good and we did not experience problems with the noise mentioned by another reviewer. They also helped us book both transport and hotel at our next destination. The effort was really beyond what you would expect... More

We stayed in a double room late July 2012. Although the hotel is located outside the city center (5 minutes with a bemo), it is a very good place to stay in Malang. The rooms are very clean and spacious and cozy. We had a room on the ground floor, although it was close to the reception and the court... More

There's not a lot to complain about at this lovely place. Rooms are clean and comfortable with airconditioning, soft beds, good bathrooms. Breakfast and afternoon tea (included in room price) are served in a nice courtyard set around fountains. Be sure to partake of the afternoon tea as they have some wonderful cakes (different every day). Staff are all very... More

We stayed here for one night in transit to east java. Malang is not a very interesting town, but if you are there, Merbabu Guesthouse is nice and comfortable place to stay. Rooms are simple but quite clean. Friendy staff and ok breakfast.
