Feels like Home”
I only stayed at the Wayang Homestay for 2 nights but it felt like I had stayed for a month. I was actually sad leaving this place. That's the kind of home feeling you get here. Bella, Erica, Julia, and Jack are the friendliest, most helpful people. They genuinely want to help you and make you feel at home. And if you have any questions regarding Yogyakarta or transportation elsewhere, they will do everything they can to help. And they also lend you a bike for free! Rooms are clean and have air con. Laundry service is very quick When I arrived, drenched in sweat, Erica and Bella came running out with open arms and Jack brought me a cold water. What better way to arrive at a homestay. The location isn't close to the Kraton or Malioboro but by bike it is not far at all. And being in a quite neighborhood gives travelers a chance to see how the locals live and spend their day in Yogyakarta I 100% recommend the Wayang home stay to all travelers!

Cool Homestay with Great Value & Warm Hospitality”
Booked 3 rooms for 2 nights with complimentary traditional set breakfast in a nicely decorated bungalow of 6 rooms. Average sized but clean rooms and Wayang homestay organised our 2 days 12 hours daily tours with airport pick-up included for a very reasonable price. Located in a quiet residential neighborhood outside city centre and please get advice from their super kind and friendly staff on good eateries within walking distance nearby or use the bicycle provided. Complimentary coffee and tea are also provided all day long. We really enjoyed our stay here, a very big Thank You to Mr. Jack and Ms. Julia for their warm hospitality and not forgetting our driver/guide, Mr. Jarot of Sokka Tours for his excellent tour of Jogja. Highly recommended homestay in Jogja.

Brilliant Homestay”
We are family of 4, with children age 4 & 7. We booked for 2 days as we don't know how it will be. We requested to be picked up, and even when our flight was late, the driver is still there waiting. We booked family room, which turned out to be really spacious (more than we expected), even with our 8 luggages. Room is well air-con, hot water (which is important for my fussy girls) and of course, the telly. Mas Jack, mbak Widi, mas Frisda (tanpa Yanti....:) peace mas....)dan Ibu Rika were all very friendly and helpful. The service is superb. Tried to book few more days but they were all booked. But we did came back to this Homestay at the end of our trip for another 3 nights. Definately this Homestay is our favourite, and we surely will stay here again on our next holiday !!! Terima kasih semua staff and owner Wayang Homestay....we are a very satisfied customer !!!

The Wayang makes you feel at home, easy stay”
The Wayang is not a 4 star Ritz Carlton but a very nice and quaint Homestay with good private rooms. From the start The Wayang and management made me feel at home. My flight arrived early and my room was fresh and ready. Julia and Jack run (manage) the homestay and they were above and beyond any help I've ever received from a hotel or inn and I travel A LOT! They were so helpful and so sweet, it was what any first time visitor to Yogyakarta could hope to encounter. I will definitely come to Jogja again and The Wayang is where I will stay and recommend to anyone. I wholeheartedly recommend The Wayang.

Friendly, clean and quiet”
The Wayang Homestay was a wonderful experience. The hosts Jack and Julia were very helpful and friendly. They went out of their way to be helpful and had a lot of information about tours, landmarks and things to do. Breakfast is provided each morning and we are also free to use the kitchen to prepare our own meals. The guesthouse is located in a quiet are in the hotel tourist area within walking distance of the Sultans Palace and Marioboro St. Several bicycles are available for the guests use and there are many restaurants from street style to expensive hotels in the area as well as shops, Internet cafés etc. I discovered an organic market and a jazz cafe nearby thanks to Julia. Highly recommended and great value for money

A nice hotel, good value for money”
I had a pleasant stay at Wayang Homestay for seven nights. Room is clean, staff are kind and always ready to assist. They can also speak and understand English well. Wayang serves Indonesian breakfast. Jek is a good cook! Coffee and tea are available 24hr a day. Location is about 2km away from malioboro. one can easily get a grab bike for 6k when going to Malioboro or Kraton. Wayang is near Jl. Tirtodipuran, where restaurants, antique, batik, and crafts store are located. Thank you jek, rita and frisda for making my stay in jogja a pleasant one.

First time in Yogya”
Located in the suburbs, Wayang is a good find. It has a homely feel to the place. Its quiet and slightly away from the tourist bar etc. The locals don't stare and they are friendly. The stay comes with breakfast which is usually fried rice. Wayang provide free coffee/tea/mineral water 24/7 at the pantry. The staff are helpful and are friendly. When getting taxis, the staff helps to get taxis with no hidden charges/commission. They can also arrange trips to Borobudur,Prambanan + Setumbu Hill sunrise (but you may have to join in other travellers from other hotels.) The plus point is the homestay provides free bicycle (including bicycle locks) or motor bikes for rent. But in Yogya one need not worry about the bicycle being stolen. All in all I had a pleasent stay at Wayang.

Best experience in Yogyakarta”
Wayang Homestay is the best option to stay in when in Yogyakarta. It is located in a quiet village, 10-minute ride from the busy streets of Malioboro. The rooms are comfortable and the staff are friendly and approachable. Truly value for money.

We enjoyed our stay at Wayang”
We enjoyed our 3 nights stay at Wayang, Erika and Jack were helpful and attentive to our request. They arranged the Mt Merapi trekking tour for us and made a booking for massage with a discounted rate. Our room's aircon was not functioning well and they changed a new set for us the next day. We even enjoyed our rent-free bicycle ride to the surrounding. Will definitely stay with The Wayang Homestay if we visit Yogya again. Value for money.

Best honestly ever!”
Wayang helped us a lot for our schedule. Coz the weather in April jogja is still a raining season, and we've planed to karimun jawa where the boat schedule always depends on the weather! The bad weather changed our original schedule. The wayang helped us from checking the tour availability, the bus schedule to even comparing the price! How great is it! Besides the friendly helpful staff, the food there is really tasty. And the hygiene there is great, the staff always keep cleaning the floor. Location to the city centre around 5 minutes by motor bike, and u can rent a bicycle there for free! Coz of not too close to the city centre, the room is really quiet to sleep!

Above and beyond”
Wayang Homestay is located on a quiet street yet walking distance to the Palace and Prawirotaman. Staff is EXTREMELY helpful and friendly, from providing tourist and shopping information and booking cabs to loaning me their adapter from the office so that i could charge my phone in my room. The rooms are clean, with hot showers (a bit temperamental though) and TV. I will definitely stay here again when i visit Jogja again.

Excellent place. ”
We will always stay in the Wayang. We just loved the place. Especially the comfort Jack and his family gave us. They are wonderful people. Jack runs this homestay and a brilliant guuy. No wonder he has repeated customers. I met so many who just came back for his warmth...Jack is a rockstar :).. Anyways. we just loved the homestay , especially my 3.5 year old son. Nice location and good food. Feels like home.

great homestay, very friendly staff”
We really enjoyed our stay at Wayang Homestay. The location is quiet but not far from the restaurants and sights, and it was always possible to take a bycicle and expore the city. Most importantly, the staff was really great! We would definitely come back to stay at Wayang when we're in Yogya!

too good”
I fell in love with wayang when i arrived at the doorstep. Wonderful house. Wonderful room. Jack was there waiting when my partner and I arrived at 2am. He has the best smile. He and his team made us stay more nights than we had planned and we were happy to do that. The price is unbeatable. Breakfast prepared by Jack were perfect even during the Ramadhan. Jogja is already a wonderful place and Wayang makes it even enchanting. Will definitely go back

Superb Service, Big and Comfortable Rooms”
This budget homestay is run by very friendly and helpful people. They are ready to help the guests, give you directions to good restaurants or recommendations on places of attraction. The rooms were very big, we had the family room accommodating 5 people in a room at that time and it still felt spacious and comfortable! It is located in a quiet neighbourhood but quite close to town. They can let you borrow their bicycles for free if you ask nicely. I will definitely come back to this lovely house if I visit Yogyakarta again.

Very nice and good staff”
First day in indonesia and it was really good. The sisters that have the Wayang picked us up for free at the airport. Rooms are clean and nice, only issue is water pressure. In the morning nice traditional breakfast, very good. Location not far from sultans palace (walking distance). Free bike rental. Husband also took us for very fair price to all the temples and late evening to borobudur hotel. Very good english for this part.

Feels like home...!!!”
It was an extravagant stay! I was staying there with a friend for a week and it was so good! The staffs are very friendly and very helpful. They had broad knowledge about Jogja which gave us more info on the best way to do what we want to. The room is very comfy, the staff asks first before they clean up the room. I was helped to rent a motorbike without any documents guarantee! And the price is just right..!! All in all.. It was a great stay! Can't wait to stay here again if I go to Jogja.. Thank you for the hospitality wayangers.. See yaaa..

Simply perfect”
Our stay in Wayang was simply perfect. The room were more than clean, luminous and large. New towel everyday upon request. Also we want to make a special thanks to the staff, this couple are simply awesome and put all their effort to help, to make you comfortable and to make you feel like home. That, we felt like home! Do not be afraid of the Indonesian Breakfast which is very good. Snacks, coffee, tea are available for free all day long. And they were happy to make us discover some indonesian specialities all along our stay, also for free and with all kindness. Also bikes are available all day in a very good condition. They propose tours for the city and around. We did not manage to find cheaper elsewhere for the tour to Borobudur. Very highly recommend this place, either for all above and the quiet location (outside the center which is a good thing but close enough by bike) and we want to support this kind of place.
