Found myself with a few days off for Chinese New Year and decided to head back to Yogyakarta, a favourite haunt of mine. Booked a couple of nights at Fave Hotel situated at Jalan Kusumanegara. Fave hotels are generally known for their value for money and this one was priced at Rp. 415,000 without breakfast for a standard room. It did seem a bit steep but it is a public holiday weekend and generally everywhere will be more expensive.
High points : Clean bright room, small but nicely furnished. Clean sheets and towels. Flat screen tv with 60 channels. Swimming pool. Friendly staff.
Low points : Distance to the centre means public transport must be used to get everywhere. Breakfast charged at Rp. 50,000 per person. Food and drinks charges relatively high in comparison to other food outlets in the city.
Generally I was quite content with my two day stay and would definitely recommend the hotel if you don't mind taking taxis (about Rp. 20,000 a trip) to get into the centre of things.
