I spent 4 nights here in order to do some photography at Kawah Ijen. As is usually the case the staff was helpful and friendly upon checkin - especially if you speak Indonesian. This was helpful since my room had no towels, no toilet paper, broken light bulbs and no bathroom soap. The room was stuffy, had no fan and... More

Staff were ok and helpful at first, but a bit lazy and used to tourists. The thought of staying more than one night at this "homestay" come rundown motel, wasn't appealing! The hot water didnt work in the room, but they were helpful and gave me plenty of sealed soap bars, new toilet paper rolls, and clean towels. There was... More

It's value for money. It's kind like a house with few rooms depend on the tourists quantity. The room is spacious. There is living room too. The room is a bit smelly but in acceptable range. There is hot shower but you will have to adjust regularly. There are a lot of plantation including coffee, strawberries and other more. You... More

This place is in picturesque government-owned coffee plantation. The economy rooms are small but reasonable for the price. The views of the inside of the ancient crater are lovely. Security can organise a pre dawn motorbike lift up to the kawah ijen hike point.

Arabica was a part of our package to Ijen, since there are no other places around this crater we weren't left with much choice. They first showed us a terrible room which was musty and smelled mildly of garbage, when i requested for a change of room they first said all other rooms were occupied, but then later gave us...

stayed at this place the night before visiting Ijen, as part of a package deal. when you arrive the complex looks quite charming. but when entering the room it doesn't look so charming. no windows, small, not to clean and uncomfortable beds. the boiler looks like 50 years old....and it probably is. when flushing to toilet, the whole bathroom fluds.....

The lodge is nicely placed in a coffee plantation. At the reception you can get a free cup of coffee, and this is the best coffee I got until now in Indonesia (most of the time you get Nescafe coffe isn't it?). They have rooms of different cathegories and prices. The best are in the main building (noisy), the worst... More

Staff: Unacceptable ignorant. Breakfast: Poor and not good at all. Rooms: If you are unlucky you stay in a room where the automatic waterpump is just infront of your window and starts running everytime some guest in some room switch on the water. No extra blankets, even it is freezing cold in this altitude. As married with an Indonesian (Balinese)... More

Nice surrounding, beautiful view of Kawah Ijen. Staff is useless. Bring warm clothes because it gets cold at night and you won't get a spare blanchet unless you stay in a suite. No towels available. The only good thing is that there is hot water in every room, also economy for 150.000 rp. But check the shower first. Ours wasn't... More
