I love the staff. Friendly and helpful. Hostel assisted to keep my luggage while I was traveling to other parts of Java. The hostel staff also values my return and multiple stays at Otu, they accomodated to my requests. Other things I love about this hostel apart from the staff is the clean swimming pool. If you stay for one night, you cannot see the value of these things. Few nights to one week stay and then you will see that the hostel has the perfect balance of giving you some peace of mind, good service & good location. can't do your own quick clothing washes anymore as there is no more place to hang your wet clothes, but not an issue. Just opt for Indonesia's cheap laundry services

Most taxi, grabcar or big vans won't enter the small alleyway that leads from the main road to this hostel. Have to walk about 6-7 minutes from main road. An issue if you are carrying big luggages. Maybe call up the hostel for some assistance

Amazing stay at Otu. The location is great, a few minutes from the main Backpacker street with restaurants and cafes. The common areas of the hostel are really nice - the pool is beautiful and clean, and there is comfy seating. There's also a well stocked communal kitchen. The staff were amazingly friendly and helpful. The rooms are basic but have what you need and the beds were comfy.

The aircon in my room wasn't super strong, but it worked well enough to keep me cool at night (and I run hot). however, the room did stay cool even with the aircon off. The shower water pressure wasn't great and the WiFi was a bit patchy in the rooms.

The staff was super friendly and helpful. They helped us arrange transport to/from airport and gave us a ton of helpful info! They have a little welcome packet that even points out all the best ways to get to the sights and most recommended food spots around town, this was much appreciated. Also appreciated, we arrived before check in and they let us change and use the pool for a couple hours. We were welcomed with a smile every time.

The A/C could have been stronger. We stayed in the family room and it was comfortable but I would have liked to make it cooler, the unit was just not capable of it.

I had a lovely stay. Everything was clean. Great area for chilling/working. I like the music in the background. Location great. a few places to eat including western food nearby within walking distance pool light airy comfortable bed

Hot water would be great. was woken up at 7am with other guests and music. Perhaps keep the music low until after 9am?

My stay at Otu Hostel By Ostic was great! My room smelled like a coffee shop! Whatever that scent was - I loved it! The room had exactly what you need for a short stay; a large bed, a shower with hot water and a tv - it also had a pool and a large area with a lot of seating outside around the pool. My absolute favorite part of my stay here was the staff who was extremely friendly and so so helpful! Thanks everybody! Hi Nania :-) The next great thing about Otu Hostel By Ostic was the LOCATION! The area is beautiful, you're surrounded by the houses of locals and close by, on the main street there are a bunch of stores, restaurants, and a cute bar with live music in the corner! I recommend this place!

I

the staff is very friendly and will give you all you need to spend an amazing trip in Yogyakarta

bathroom were a bit tiny to shower, you don’t have a lot of space in the dors to move your backpack

Otu Hostel in Yogya is fantastic! The rooms are good with AC, de pool is a big plus and de location is great! It’s just around the corner of the busy street with nice bars en restaurant. Unfortunately during our stay my girlfriend and I got food poisoning from another restaurant. But Elivera and Habba (2 of the staffmembers) took really good care of us!❤️. The helped with warm tea and soup. Also they gave us advice for the hospital and pharmacy. Such lovely and nice people. I highly recommend this hostel!

All is nice (thick mattresses, Access to swimminh pool kitchen and fridge, some showers with hot water which is rare...), but the staff is the most special part of this place. Elvira and Habba are 2 lovely receptionnists who will do their best to help you get your ticket, train, nice restaurant, driver, best views of the city,... Or even take care of your injury in the middle of the night and help you through hospital if needed! Thank you SO MUCH again for all of that!

Nothing all was so nice

The staff were incredible! Literally could not have been kinder or more helpful during my stay, they gave me so much information and even helped me book taxis for the day. Location is also very good (in tourist village) so there are loads of very good restaurant options nearby. There are lots of socializing places/ places to make phone calls which is good. Free water and have snack options to buy. Kitchen also available to use and a pool!

Wifi can be a little spotty. Lockers are a little small so meant keeping my big backpack outside (though everything felt very secure)

We had a wonderful time at Otu Hostel. Nania, Robby, Elvira and staff made us feel very welcome each time we passed the lobby. They also helped us a lot with usefull advice and logistics. Neighbourhood is lively and kind of hipster, with lots of nice restaurants at walking distance. Hostel though is a peaceful and quiet place. Very good value for money with real and warm persons running the business.
