Backpackers' dream”

Extremely convenient location in the heart of Surabaya. Within a walking distance of Gubeng Baru train station, malls and numerous sightseeing spots. The hostel is very, very clean including beds, linens and toilets/bathrooms. Simple but tasty breakfast is available as well as tea and coffee - the latter 24/7. Outstanding WiFi quality and speed. Staff is very helpful and friendly. Definitely will stay here again and will recommend it to everyone who travels on a budget.

Clean room, cheap, perfect location”

I was staying in double bed, and apparently not quiet enough to sleep for 2 adults + 1 child ( 4yo ) so we rent another bed. The aircon in the room i was staying setup automatically off every 1 hour. It was annoyed us.. because the room has no window or fan at all. So when the aircon turned off, it was very fuggy and hot. The bathroom very limited. 2 bathroom + 2 closet for maybe 20 person ? Although the bathroom always being cleaned up in the morning.. for that many people use it, it goes very dirty at mid day. I think the hostel should clean it at least 3 times a day. Bread for breakfast was OK, and tea & coffee 24 hours free.. and the rest was great. I Couldn't ask for more for that cheap price.

Excellent Staff, Location and Value for Money”

I'm a photographer, after doing my project in Surabaya I extend my trip for 1 day to take photo in Surabaya. Livinn is an excellent choice since the location is near places of interest. The staff is no doubt one of the best staff hostel I ever visit, friendly & helpful. Some of my concern are the toilet in 2nd floor is wet & stink, there's no soap available. I woke up 5am because of the noise and hot. The noise is because there are 2 big group was staying there, most of them is senior citizen, I think they not used to stay in backpacker hostel that have some basic rules like noice etc, early in the morning these 2 groups is getting ready to do their activity. My pod is hot because the AC suddenly not working properly, so I asked the staff downstairs and they quickly fixed the AC. One of the reasons I decided to stay here is I saw the photo that they have locker and smart card (I need it because I want to leave my laptop), turn out they only have 4 locker for one room.

Good location, comfortable beds, good shower and toilets. BUT ... if you don't like air-con, it's on all night and you wake up freezing. Complaining about it does nothing. Also, there are no lockers for backpacks, you are reliant on others honesty, but you can leave your backpack at the front counter if you ask them, during the day.

Great hostel, Noisy locals,poor cleanliness”

been staying here everytime i visit surabaya, the problems is always be the same: cleanliness of the toilet, noisy local traveler (especially those who brings child into the dormitory room, like, really??), and the careless staff regarding the hostel condition This hostel should make a restrictions about the child who stay in the dormitory room, local traveler are usually the ones who makes a lot of noises and its pretty awful when you just wanna have a peaceful sleep. Positive side of this hostel is the affordable price with the great location in the center of surabaya, just across the old side door of surabaya gubeng station. Ac 24/7 and very cold, which is not a bad thing. Bed is also very comfortable and spacious. As i've said before,they have a potential to be the best hostel in surabaya and attracts a lot of global traveler but they need to fix all the problems they had
