The homestay was really unique. The rooms were really clean. The pool in the front was a refreshing way to cool down during the day. The property was a short grab from many central locations. The staff were amazing! They really went above and beyond at every step. Their communication was great throughout. They even offered to pack us a breakfast to go on mornings we had early starts with tours etc,.

☆Place - was so calm & chilling. Just the right place to have a retreat away from the hustle and bustle of the centre. ♡Staffs - were so sweet and lovely. They helped me to plan my trip around and guide me through. Mukhtar, the owner was a star for showing me around. ◇worth every penny spent. Will definitely come back for a longer period of stay. Cheers Sleepy Raccoon🍻🥂

I just want to start off my review by saying I have stayed in over a dozen or more hostels while travelling Australia and the world and this one is definitely in my top 3. So sadly I only stayed for 1 night in Wonderloft Hostel Yogyakarta because I already had a flight booked the following day but the staff and facilities were 10/10 and I wish I was able to stay longer. In my 1 night of stay I had mutiple enquires for the reception/staff e.g. - How to book a train to the airport (which they did for me) and also how to get to the train station at 4:35am in time for my train (which they also helped me with). - Where could I find a good restaurant for some delicious Nasi Goreng (one of my fav Indonesian dishes) it was quite late at night though so one of the only options was a small street food vendor around the corner which I went to and it was "enak" which is Indonesian for delicous and only $22,000 Rp ($2.20 Australian at the time) - Lastly where is a good place to get a nice respectable and reasonably priced massage (I got a full body massage for 1hr for $115,000 Rp $11.50 Australian which is roughly about ×9 less than what I normally pay back home) The room I stayed in was a mixed gender capsule dorm room which was very clean, the bed was really comfy, it had amazing A/C (which if you've ever been anywhere in South-East Asia just before, during or just after the rainy season as well as anywhere in the Northern part of Australia during summer you know it's kind of a game changer) and to top it off everyone is supplied with a complimentary towel. It was also my first experience staying in a capsule dorm so I was a bit unsure as what it would be like but I loved it.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    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!

    We were super satisfied with our stay at this accommodation—maybe it’s the best hostel I’ve ever been to. 🏨💚 The place is lovingly decorated, with beautiful plants everywhere and a great overall layout. 🌿 The rooms are small and simple but very nice. 🛏️ The location is perfect—right next to cozy cafes and restaurants, and you can walk everywhere. ☕🍽️ The staff gives excellent tips and doesn’t push expensive tours on you. 🗺️ They also rent out high-quality scooters. 🛵 We felt super comfortable here. Thank you so much for everything! 🙏😊

    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.

    Great location, comfortable bed but most of all the staff are genuinely such lovely people! The owner is so helpful and kind and the lady at reception is so friendly and welcoming. The hostel really gives off a homely vibe and as a solo female traveller I felt incredibly safe. Will definitely stay again if I return to Yogyakarta!
