2-Star Hotels in East Java, Indonesia

It seems like an old hotel, you can see it from the bed I was in. When I wanted to take a shower, they forgot to give me a towel. I had to ask for one first. My child had to go down to the receptionist to ask for a towel. Drinking water was only given to drink together outside the room. In the bathroom, there were lots of black ants coming out of the sink. There were lots of mosquitoes in the room, I had to ask for Baygon to spray the mosquitoes. The hotel must pay attention so that their guests are comfortable staying there....we booked two rooms.

Comfortable One-Night Transit Stay – Tilamas Hotel Sidoarjo I stayed one night at Tilamas Hotel, Sidoarjo, as a transit stop close to Juanda Airport, and overall it was a great experience, especially considering the price. The room was very spacious, comfortable, and definitely good value for money. The bathroom was clean and well-equipped, with complete amenities, and everything worked properly—including the AC, which cooled the room very well. However, I did notice one spider web inside the cupboard near the mirror, which was a bit disturbing and could easily be improved with more detailed housekeeping checks. I tried the in-room dining service. The food itself was okay, but the taste and portion could be improved, and the waiting time was quite long—around 45 minutes to 1 hour. Personally, I would rather not offer in-room dining if the waiting time is that long. Based on staff information, the service is handled by an external vendor (not a third-party app), which explains the delay. Honestly, using Gojek/GoFood might work better for both guests and the hotel. I also shared photos for reference regarding the salad garnish served with my Nasi Goreng. It looked very unappealing and unpleasant, and honestly, it would have been better to leave the garnish out completely—even rabbits wouldn’t eat it (trust me 🙂). That said, the service really stood out. The Front Desk team were professional, friendly, and welcoming, and the housekeeping staff did a great job overall. Because of that, my one-night transit stay was enjoyable. If the hotel offers a membership or loyalty program, I would love to join—especially if there are special offers or discounts for repeat guests. Hopefully, I’ll be returning again someday.

Good service, friendly, location is very close to the ampel mosque, the price is not expensive, not cheap ... just yesterday there was a little.. experience.. in the middle of the night I want to urinate,,, the water is not running.. *************find water in the next room get..

The Life Hotel City Center is the first place I check everytime there is event placed at Surabaya Expo Center. The location is excellent. The food is delicious. TV, air conditioner, water heater are working well. Cleanliness need to be improved more. But overall, this place is awesome!

The location is actually top notch, located close to the city Centre and easy to reach all the most famous destination. The cleanliness is the best by far, I was ordering 2 times to get new towels and they prepared it well. On top of that, I was asking to change the cover of the bed and they did it at their best. The only minor in my opinion, but to me is bothering my last stay at the hotel. On the last day, I was getting breakfast as usual, ordering 2 sunny side up (half cook). I knew it was on Saturday morning and more busy compare the normal days. The cook was quite new I believe, he looked overwhelm with all the orders and suddenly he said that he ran out of the gas. Boom…all the cooking was off, all the staffs looked busy to get a new gas tube. It was around 15 minutes I guess until I came to the egg station again and asked to the same order. The cook was saying okay I will prepare it first then I would be sending to your table. No I said, I will be waiting here because the last time I ordered it he just said yes while other guests was also ordering the same thing. He was even not typing at all then how could he be remembering whose ordering the eggs. All and all, it was still a great experience and ambience to stay at this hotel. I would definitely be staying back in the next visit.

Full facilities, refrigerator, TV, water heater, strategic region Close to food sellers, don't worry about the popularity of a lot of food sold in the area, especially in the morning there is a market

One of the best hostels I've stayed at in Asia! Super clean, great location right next to the night market. Despite that, you can't hear any noise from the rooms. There's a water dispenser and even free food available. Optional breakfast for 15k IDR, consisting of sliced bread, jam, peanut butter, butter, fruit, and tea/coffee/chocolate. The owners are very kind and helpful! The bed is very comfortable and spacious, with a large locker. The air conditioning works perfectly. There's also a laundry service for 25k IDR with a washing machine available and detergent included. Nice terrace with an indoor room featuring a TV and a sofa. I can't find any flaws with this hostel.

quite satisfactory, the service is quite good, the facilities are quite good at that price. always subscribe here

A typical Amaris hotel with friendly staffs, clean room and decent amenities. The breakfast is also very nice. Location is good.

Quiet room at night, close to shops, express laundry out the front did a good job. Madiun is a tourist friendly city with proper footpaths so walking around is comfortable. The breakfast was good. Nice nasi pecel.
