I changed rooms twice, but both were just as filthy. There was hair all over the floor and bed, used shampoo bottles in the bathroom, no tissues, shampoo, or soap, a blocked sink, and some disgusting stuff on the table that I couldn't identify. I couldn't sleep because I wasn't sure the sheets had even been changed. The room cost more than 300k, yet cleanliness clearly wasn't being taken care of. I asked to cancel and get a refund, but the receptionist said no. I checked out at 6:30 in the morning, though later the hotel told tiket.com that I had stayed until checkout time. That's a lie. I took lots of photos of the room, but tiket.com still kept asking the hotel about a refund. My money was already in the tiket.com account, so I don't understand why they needed to ask the hotel. Their phone number wasn't available when I called, and they didn't answer me either. If I'd left immediately after checking in, I think the hotel would've still claimed I stayed until checkout. I don't know how I can prove when I left. The room had used toilet tissue and shampoo packets, hair everywhere, a dirty table, and a clogged sink. I told reception to cancel after seeing it all, but they still made that claim. I hate this kind of shameless, dishonest behavior. The place is far from everything, with nothing special nearby. There's construction material around the area because another building seems to be under repair. Even the motorcycle parking has no roof or protection from sun or rain. The Wi-Fi signal in the room was weak, and even after connecting, it didn't work. I tried making coffee, but they provided cheap coffee that needs filtering after boiling, and only a glass, nothing to stir it with. To find the receptionist, you have to call out and look around because there's no bell and the young man is never at the desk. I shared real photos of the room. I still don't understand how this hotel got good rewards and points.

The restaurant was nice, and the staff were really friendly and helpful. Getting a Grab was easy, it arrived quickly, and the city centre is about 10 minutes away. The first coffee places are a 30-minute walk. Our room, though, was really dirty. The shower barely had any pressure, there was no water to flush the toilet, and hardly any came from the sink. Wi-Fi didn't work well either, and we were given just one keycard.
The staff were all friendly and ready to help with whatever we needed. The place is close to puteri mountain, cool and very quiet since it's inside a housing complex. The rooms had a lot of mold on the walls and very few amenities. There was no sugar, teaspoons, pool towels, or toilet mat.
It felt calm and quiet, and the rooms were comfortable without being too small, so it worked well for a peaceful break or staycation. The big pool, green plants, animals, and Balinese music give the place a Bali feel. There's even a babi guling restaurant, and the food was really good. The owners are Balinese, too. A hidden gem in Malang if you're missing Bali but can't make the trip.
Our room was on the third floor and there was no lift. Getting up there was quite tiring for the elderly.
